Suffolk University Law School (also known as "Suffolk Law School"). Suffolk University Law School is a private, non-sectarian law school located in downtown Boston, Massachusetts. Suffolk University Law School was founded in 1906 by Gleason Archer, Sr. to provide a legal education for those who traditionally lacked the opportunity to study law because of socio-economic or racial discrimination.[6] Suffolk is the fourth-oldest New England law school in continuous existence.

The law school currently has both day and evening, part-time divisions. Suffolk University Law School has been accredited by the American Bar Association since 1953 and the Association of American Law Schools since 1977.[7] The school is located in Sargent Hall on Tremont Street in downtown Boston. Suffolk offers over 200 upper-level electives, the most of any law school in the country, and is consistently ranked one of the most technologically advanced schools in the nation.[8][9] Suffolk publishes six law reviews, to which students, faculty, and other scholars contribute. Suffolk has attracted notable scholars and prominent speakers including, but not limited to, John F. Kennedy, William Rehnquist, Antonin Scalia, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Noam Chomsky. Suffolk University Law School alumni are found in high-level judicial, political, and private positions throughout the United States. With over 25,000 alumni, Suffolk is the fourth largest law school in the United States.[10]

According to Suffolk Law's 2013 ABA-required disclosures, 67% of the Class of 2013 obtained full-time, long-term, JD-required employment nine months after graduation.[11]

History

File:Suffolk Law.JPG
Suffolk's old law building

One of New England's oldest law schools, Suffolk was founded in 1906 by lawyer Gleason Leonard Archer as the "Suffolk School of Law." The school was named after its location in Suffolk County, Massachusetts. Archer's goal was to provide immigrants, minorities, and the working class with the opportunity to study law. In 1907, Archer moved the school from Roxbury, Massachusetts to downtown Boston. Suffolk Law School's first student passed the bar in 1908. By 1930, Archer developed Suffolk into one of the largest law schools in the country, and the law school received full accreditation from the American Bar Association (ABA).[12] Originally an all-male school, with the New England School of Law serving as a sister school, Suffolk became co-educational in 1937.[12] In 1999, Suffolk Law School opened its new building at 120 Tremont Street, near the Boston Common.[13]

Curriculum and attendance statistics

Calvin Coolidge, then Governor of Massachusetts and eventual 30th President of the United States, laying cornerstone for the law building, in 1920.

Suffolk Law School has a 3-year day program and a 4-year evening program offering a broad selection of courses. The law school maintains a traditional first-year Juris Doctor curriculum which includes the year-long courses of Civil Procedure, Contracts, Property, Torts, and Legal Writing, in addition to the semester-long Constitutional Law and Criminal Law courses. A course in Professional Responsibility is required, and each student must also fulfill legal writing and legal skills requirements prior to graduation. Until 2008 Fiduciary Relations, a class concentrating on the law of Agency and Trusts, was required. Upon completion of the required curriculum, students at Suffolk choose from over 200 upper-level courses, many of which focus on learning practical skills, including several legal clinics.[14] Students may also receive credit for diverse internships and clerkships, including those at various courts in the Boston area. Academic concentrations are available in Civil Litigation, Financial Services, Health/Biomedical, and Intellectual Property.[15]

In addition to the JD, Suffolk offers an advanced LLM in Global Law and Technology. Suffolk University Law School also offers joint degrees with Suffolk's Sawyer Business School (JD/MBA, JD/MSF and JD/MPA), and the Suffolk College of Arts and Sciences (JD/MSCJ and JD/MSIE).[16]

The average faculty to student ratio at Suffolk is 16.5 students per faculty member.[17] Tuition for the 2013–2014 academic year is $44,934 for the day division and $33,700 for the evening division.[18]
