EXPECTS BIG YEAR.
Dean Hamilton Is Preparing
for Opening of Glasses
on September IS.

Encouraged by the outlook for the
forthcoming term, Dean George E.
Hamilton of Georgetown University
School of Law expects an enrolment
that will equal, If not exceed, the un-
usually large registration Of last year.
All students seeking admission to the
law school, it was announced are re-
quired to register in the Office of the
dean not later than September Is for
the late afternoon classes, and not
later than September % for the morn
ing classes. These two dates mark
the opening of the new term.
BY requiring two full years Of col
lege work, free Of conditions, as q
qualification for admission, the
Georgetown school has been given a
"class A" grading, though at a great
sacrifice to it's enrolment, which
law school in the United States.
However. this years registration is
expected to exceed 600 students, and
with the steady growth Of the recent
ly inaugurated morning classes, the
enrolment will probably soon be
closer to it's former figures.
Except for the resignation of one
member, last years faculty at the
law school remains intact. Justice
Adolph A. Hoehling of the District
Supreme Court, lecturer in evidence,
will be succeeded. in that course BY
Edmund Brady, who has been a men.
ber of the faculty for a number OF
years.
