Summary
The University of New South Wales Law School was New South Wales' second law school. The initial move to establish the School came from Sydney University Law School's being unable to cope with the demand for places, and the perceived advantage of full-time law studies over the alternative (articled clerkship combined with part-time study). The history records milestones such as appointments to the Deanship, the arrival of the first female teaching staff, the development of the law library and the development of programs aimed at indigenous students
