Established in 1845, Carolina Law is among the oldest law schools in the nation and is the oldest law school in North Carolina. It is consistently ranked in the top-tier of law schools, and its 2010 US News and World Report ranking is 30th. With an average J.D. class size of 235, the law school has just over 700 students at any time, and retains a student-faculty ratio of 16.9 to 1. Attracted by the school's reputation and its affordable in-state tuition, admissions are highly competitive. For the Fall 2009 entering class, only 15.4% of applicants were accepted, with a median LSAT score of 162 and a median GPA of 3.60. Minorities represent 30% of the entering class, and over half of the class is female.[1] At least 75% of each incoming class is from North Carolina, although roughly 75% of applications are from out-of-state.[2] Following discussion in the North Carolina legal community, on December 12, 1842, the Trustees of the University of North Carolina authorized the University President, David L. Swain, to review and establish a law professorship. In 1845, William Battle Horn was named the first professor of law, and legal instruction began at the university. In the years following, assistant professors and later an organized faculty and law library were added. The school began taking on much of the character of a modern law school in the 1920s, after the American Bar Association first published guidelines for schools. University President Harry Woodburn Chase was instrumental in leading the efforts for this reorganization over notable opposition, including the governor of North Carolina.[3]
