Wisconsin LawSchool. I did this inthe hope of conveying to you a bet-ter understanding ofour goals andoperations, for it is clear thatalthough our main goal is to pre-pare students for the practice oflaw, it is not our only goal. Thisyear I want to pursue that themefurther by focusing on the inter-nal administrative structure ofthe law school. I do this not toemphasize form over substancebut as a vehicle to illustrate and toinform you of the multiple facetsof our educational enterprise.First, however, let me reviewbriefly a few of the things whichnormally are dealt with in adean's annual report.

Our faculty continues to teach,do research and engage in avariety of forms of public servicewith enthusiasm. In September,1978, our faculty will be aug-mented by the addition of twomembers. Joining the faculty willbe Dan Bernstine and KennethDavis.

THE GARGOYLE

Bernstine has been teaching forthe past three years at HowardUniversity SchoolofLawin Wash-ington, D.C. Professor Bernstinespecializes in Civil Procedure andalso will be teaching other sub-jects such as Labor Law.Mr.Davishas been an associate for the pasttwo years with the Washingtonlaw firm of Covington and Bur-ling. He will be teaching Corpora-tions, Corporate Taxation andSecurities Regulation, and alsowill participate from time to timein coaching our moot court teams.As far as I am aware, we will nothave any faculty members leavingus permanently, and so this bringsour faculty to full strength.

Our faculty members continueto be much in demand as visitorsat other law schools, and a num-ber of them were at other institu-tions during the 1977-78academicyear. In the fall semester, BillFoster taught at Arizona Stateand June Weisberger taught atMichigan. In the spring semester,Willard Hurst was at FloridaChuck Irish at Hawaii and Walte~Raushenbush at Arizona. TomHeller spent all year at theUniversity of Miami, and MarkTushnet spent the year at theUniversity of Texas.

In addition, a number of ourprofessors were on research orservice leaves, including JoelHandler who spent the springsemester in England under agrant from the German Marshallfund and Zig Zile who spent thefall semester at the University ofHelsinki under a research grantwhich is part of an exchange pro-gram between the University ofWisconsin-Madison and theUniversity of Helsinki. ProfessorStephen Cohen spent the year atthe State Department in Wash-ington, D.C. Professors ShirleyAbrahamson and FrankTuerkheimer continue to serve intheir respective positions asJustice of the Wisconsin SupremeCourt and U.S. Attorney for theWestern District of Wisconsin.THE GARGOYLE

As in the past several years, weare holding total enrollment atabout 880 students. We continueto get many more well-qualifiedapplicants than we can take, andin general there has been noabatement of the admissions pres-sures which we have faced in thelast ten years.

The job market for our gradu-ates also continues to be good.Wecontinue to place between 40 and50% of our graduates in privatepractice, with the next largestcategory being a variety of formsof law-related government jobs.

Let me return now to the themeof our goals, programs andorganizational structure. Themultiple goals of the Law Schoolare set forth in the mission state-ment which was last revised byour faculty in November, 1973.According to this statement, it isthe mission of the University ofWisconsin Law School to (1) pro-vide a basic law degree program ofprofessional legal education; (2)provide advanced professionaldegree programs; (3) engage incomprehensive scholarly researchin the law and the law's workingrelations to the general organiza-tion and processes of society; (4)provide teaching assistance to theUniversity Extension and othersimilar continuing education pro-grams; and (5) provide service topublic agencies, communitygroups and the like through theapplication of legal research andexpertise to the solution of societalproblems.

To accomplish these goals effi-ciently and effectively, a certaindegree of administrative organiza-tion is essential. We operate on atotal budget of around $3million ayear and have roughly a hundredemployees, including faculty butexcluding part-time lecturers.Almost exactly two-thirds of ourbudget goes for instruction andsupporting services. The re-mainder is divided approximatelyequally between expenditures forlibrary, research and financial aidfor students. About $700,000 ofthe total budget comes from fundsother than regular University ap-propriations, including the majorportion of the funding for student

financial aid, clinical instructionand research.

Let me describe briefly ourorganizational set-up. The Dean,at least in theory, is in charge ofthe administration of the LawSchool. He is appointed by theChancellor of the University ofWisconsin-Madison and serves atthe pleasure of the Chancellor. Hepresides over faculty meetings,appoints faculty committees, andis responsible for preparation ofthe budget and for seeing to it thatit is not overspent. He must beconcerned with a variety of exter-nal and internal relations, and ingeneral must muddle throughmountains of paperwork and redtape in the course of a year.

The main administrative officeand its various branches takescare of such matters as assuringthat admissions files are kept inproper order, students are pro-perly registered, student graderecords and other records arekept, typing for the faculty isdone, people are paid on time andin the right amounts, andmaterials are duplicated for class-work and other purposes.

There are two associate deanswho devote most of their adminis-trative effort to dealing with stu-dents and their various requestsand problems, scheduling ofclasses, assignment of office andparking space, and a variety ofother matters relating to theacademic program and some non-academic affairs of the law school.These associate deans are facultymembers who are appointed tothese positions generally forterms of two years and who devoteapproximately half of their time toteaching and the remainder oftheir time to the administrativework. This is illustrative of theclose relationship between teach-ing, policy making and adminis-tration in the Law School.

III

One Law Firm Says It W,th a Chec~There is an assistant dean for

placement and alumni affairs. EdReisner, whom many ofyou know,holds this position. He runs theplacement office and also devotessome of his time to the affairs ofthe Alumni Association as Execu-tive Secretary of that organiza-tion.

Many of you also know ArnonAllen whohas a joint appointmentas Chairman of the Extension LawDepartment and Associate Deanfor outreach services.

An assistant to the dean, RuthDoyle is in charge of financial aidsfor students, pre-law advising, andthe editing and production of ouralumni magazine, the Gargoyle.

Another member of our admin-istrative team is the law librarian,who in his administrative capacityis the equivalent of an associatedean. As most ofyou know, MauryLeon has held this position formany years and has done a finejob of running this major supportservice for our instructional andresearch programs. Our law libr-ary now contains approximately200,000 volumes.

The use of faculty members on apart-time basis in what sup-posedly are largely administrativepositions may not be the most effi-cient way to administer a lawschool, but it is consistent with theconcept of faculty governancewhich is strongly held at theUniversity of Wisconsin as well asat many other institutions of high-er education. In theory, the con-cept means that the faculty has adominant voice in educational

"Our partners believe thatqualified students should not bedenied the opportunity to ob-tain a law school education by

policy while the dean is in chargeof administration, but the distinc-tion often is difficult to draw. It ismore accurate to say that therespective roles of the faculty anddean have merged into a conceptof shared governance. In recentyears, students also have beengiven a voice in governancethrough participation in the ac-tivities of various committees. Infact, some committees are ratherheavily involved in administrationas well as policy making. I needtherefore to refer at least brieflyto the committee structure in theLaw School if I am to give you afairly complete picture of the ad-ministrative organization.

Committees are appointed bythe Dean at the beginning of eachacademic year. By way of illustra-tion, the following standing com-mittees operated during the1977-78 academic year:

1. Academic Planning. The mainfunctions of this committee are toadvise the dean on budgetarypriorities and to engage in lo, g-range planning.

2. Admissions. This committee,consisting of three faculty mem-bers, carries perhaps the heaviestadministrative burden of anycommittee. It must examine thecredentials of the roughly 2,000applicants for admission anddecide whom to admit in order tomake up the entering class ofroughly 280 students each year.

reason of financial constraints.Accordingly, we are pleased tosupport the scholarship pro-gram at the Law School."

3. Continuing Legal Education.This is one of our newer standingcommittees. Its main function isto act as a policy and advisoryboard for continuing legal educa-tion and outreach programs.

4. Curriculum. This committeeperiodically reviews the cur-riculum or segments of it and re-ports its recommendations to thewhole faculty. The committee hasbeen relatively inactive in the lasttwo years, but we may undertakea major curricular study nextyear.

5. Faculty Recruiting. As the namesuggests, this committee searchesout and screens applicants forpositions on the faculty andmakes recommendations to thefaculty as to whom to offer ap-pointments in a particular year.

6. Financial Aids. This committeeassists in the administration ofour financial aid program for stu-dents.

7. Legal Education Opportunities.This committee generally over-sees our Legal Education Oppor-tunities Program for minority anddisadvantaged students. Itengages in recruitment of suchstudents, reviews applications foradmission to Law School, makesrecommendations to the Admis-sions Committee as to whom to ad-mit, and handles a variety of othermatters relating to this program.

WLAA Boards Meet - Directors Adopt BudgetAs they do traditionally, the

Boards of Directors and ofVisitorsmet in connection with the SpringProgram on April 22, to discussthe Alumni Fund Budget for1978-79. There was lengthy dis-cussion of the deficit (approx-imately $11,000) which exists inthe Scholarship budget, attributedto higher than anticipated educa-tional costs. It was voted thatmoney from the long term loanfund be used to cancel the deficit.In a companion decision, the

Budget for scholarships in1978-79 was cut from $24,000 to$5,000, a cut of nearly 20%of thetotal amount available for non-LEO scholarships.The Board of Directors devoted

much of its meeting to a discus-sion of investment of Law AlumniAssociation funds presently man-aged by the University of Wiscon-sin Foundation. An ad hoc Com-mittee, of which President Russellis chairman, will give serious con-sideration to this matter in con-

formance with investment goalsapproved by the Board.

1977 FUND DRIVE Disappointins Results

Ed Reisner, Director

In reporting on the major ac-tivity of the Association, one istempted to emphasize only itsgoodpoints. The total amount con-tributed to this fund drive was thesecond highest in the nine years ofits existence. The average gift wasslightly smaller than last year'srecord ($93.00). An encouragingamount of giving came fromyoung alums.

Sadly, however, it is also neces-sary to report the negative side ofthis Fund Drive. Efforts to buildboth the number of contributorsand the total size of the fund slip-ped during the past year. The$92,000 realized by the FundDrive is about 25%less than theamount given last year. Perhapsmore importantly, the number ofalumni making contributions fellby more than a hundred from thepast two Fund Drives. What wentwrong? Why this decline in in-

terest in the University ofWiscon-sin Law School?

We look vainly for answers tothese questions. The Fund Drivewas conducted at the same time 'and in a similar manner to theFund Drives of the past. Is a newapproach and goal necessary tostimulate interest? At their mostrecent meeting, the Board ofDirectors of the Alumni Associ-ation voted to create a study com-mittee to examine the goals andmethods of our fund drive. Con-sideration is being given to moreemphasis on class giving and giv-ing for specific projects to improvethe school and the quality ofeducation it can offer. This wouldsignificantly alter the current goalof raising funds primarily for stu-dent financial aids.

The lists attached to this Fund

Drive report describe in detail theorigin of the monies which will beused for activities of the Associ-ation this year. Our most heartfeltthanks go to those of our alumsand friends who have assisted usin the past. Our most sincereentreaties go out to those whohave not. No Law School canmaintain its greatness withoutthe monetary and moral supportof its alumni. Tax revenues pro-vided by the state for the mainte-nance of this school can and dosupport only the basic level ofeducation. Alumni money has inthe past and perhaps will be ap-plied more in the future to incre-ments of instruction and facilitieswhich assist this School in main-taining its reputation as one of thefinest in the country.Help us as we strive to meet

that goal.

THE GARGOYLE xv

It took 91 lawyers, 17 studentcourt reporters from MadisonBusiness College and MadisonArea Technical College, plus aspecial agent from the FBI toassist Professor Stuart Gullicksonin teaching 79 students in hisTrial Advocacy course during thepast spring semester.

The students were divided intothree sections. Usually the law-yers taught in teams of four. Mostteams demonstrated the examina-tion of a witness in which the at-torneys were the judge, witness,and opposing counsel. For the bal-ance of a class, the students weredivided into small groups and each

TRIAL ADVOCACY -UNDER GULLICKSON

was supervised by one of the law-yers. The students then examineda witness with students filling thesame roles and the teaching law-yers conducting a critique.

According to Gullickson, the ob-ject of the course is "to begin thedevelopment of skills in examin-ing witnesses." It will not makestudents into trial lawyers, norhelp them to decide whether theycan eventually become trial law-yers.

"Not enough is known about theinner workings of peoples' mindsto be able to make that predic-tion," he said. "We don't knowhow to measure the human

qualities which producecourtroom success. Intelligence isone of them, but intelligence aloneis not enough. Advocates alsoneed an innate understanding ofhuman nature, a barrel of com-mon sense, and the tenacity ofbulldogs. They must be both sensi-tive and objective; both self-dis-ciplined and flexible. They mustbe so stable emotionally that theycan frequently 'lose' in public (aslay people, not as trial lawyers,perceive who 'loses' law suits), beso honest that they can resistpressures from clients for resultsat all costs, and be so ethical thattheir standards can undergopublic scrutiny in every trial."

Law Reviewv's. Faculty

For the first time in memory,the law review managed to sneakpast the Faculty in the annualdoubleheader softball game. Thescore in the first contest was LawReview - many, Faculty-not somany, while the second gamewas 'much closer.

To the Faculty's credit, thegame was played on a wet fieldand the Faculty squad was deci-mated by injuries, trades, leaves,desertions and the presence of twoducks in left field. Fielding star forthe Faculty was Arlen Chris-tiansen, third base, who at onepoint in the game managed astring of two consecutive attemptswithout an error. Observers alsocommented favorably on the BillWhitford-John Kidwell (pitcher-first base) pick off play. While theplay did not in fact pick any run-ner off, it did, along with a "nolead off' rule, keep the runnersclose.
