Legal Research and Writing Requirements: LW 591, Introduction to Legal Re-
search and Writing, is required to be completed satisfactorily by all students in their
third semester.
 In addition, each student is required to accomplish a major finished piece of
writing as a result of individual research. This advanced writing requirement may be
satisfied by either of the following methods:

 1. The writing of a paper in a seminar or course in which the student's
 major contribution is the production of a finished piece of writing as the
 result of his individual research, or

 2. A Law Review note prepared for publication and approved by a faculty
 Law Review advisor as being of publishable quality.

 No more than fifteen students will be permitted in any particular seminar except
upon approval of the Dean and the professor of the course. Any course of not over twenty
students can be counted for advanced writing credit, if a writing of seminar quality is
accomplished either as required work or as voluntary additional work. The effect of
this advanced writing program is to require every student as a condition to graduation
to complete one difficult research project.

 Legal Ethics Requirement.-All students are required to satisfactorily complete
LW 599, Legal Ethics, in their senior year. One hour of course credit toward graduation
is allowed for successful completion of the course, but letter grades are not given.

 Deviations, Prerequisites, and Course Cancellation.-In exceptional cases the Dean
may authorize deviations from the prescribed program of study.
 Prerequisites for particular courses may be prescribed and the privilege is reserved
by each member of the faculty to limit the number and prescribe special qualifications
for students in his courses and seminars.
 The privilege is reserved to cancel any course or seminar when the registration
for it does not warrant its being given in a particular semester.

 Transition from Former Curriculum (Course Requirements) to New Curriculum
(Group Requirements):-

 1. Students who, as of September, 1960, will be properly classified as third
 year students, i.e., who normally would graduate in February or June of
 1961, will be offered the opportunity to elect to graduate under the
 previously prescribed curriculum as set forth in the catalog issue of the
 1959-60 University of Florida Record, or to graduate under the new
 curriculum (with the exception of newly required first year courses).
 All such students must take LW 606, United States and Florida Constitu-
 tional Law, regardless of which curriculum they elect.


 2. All other students will be deemed to be under the new curriculum and
 subject to all of its requirements; with the additional requirement as to
 students who entered the College in September of 1959 that they take
 LW 639, Acquisition of Real Property, and LW 522, Civil Procedure, at
 their earliest opportunity. In addition, all students who have not taken
 Constitutional Law as a freshman course, must take LW 606, United States
 and Florida Constitutional Law, no later than the fall semester of 1960.
