Study Spaces in Suites

The design for the school's modern building manifests a commitment to providing desirable spaces for study and interaction by students who live throughout the metropolitan area. Double- or single-occupancy offices are provided to most second-year students, research assistants and teaching assistants. Most third-year students are assigned carrels or space in Club 3L, a communal area for studying or lounging. Library study spaces, far in excess of the number of first-year students, also are available.

The second and third-year assigned spaces are located in suites that include faculty offices. Each suite is named after a distinguished former justice of the United States Supreme Court. This innovative building plan fosters student-faculty interaction, the exchange of ideas and general collegiality.

The concept of the Virtual Law Classroom, located in the Leon E. Bloch Law Library, has been extended to the suites. The Virtual Law Office project provides computers for use by students and faculty in conjunction with specialized programs offered by the School of Law. It allows students and faculty to work together on projects while linked to attorneys and others in the community.
