Honoring Key Figures … and Celebrating Forty Years of Clinical Legal Education


In March, Yale Law School, with support
from the Oscar M. Ruebhausen Fund, hosted the twelfth annual Arthur Liman
Public Interest Colloquium. The Colloquium analyzed the development of clinical
education in the United States and globally, and considered its impact and
contemporary challenges. The event, “Forty Years of Clinical Education at Yale:
Generating Rights, Remedies, and Legal Services,” marked the 40th anniversary
of the founding of Yale Law School’s clinical program and honored the contributions
of clinical professors Dennis Curtis ’66, Frank Dineen ’61, Carroll Lucht, and
Stephen Wizner. Clinical Professor Emeritus Daniel Freed ’51, who was Yale’s
first clinical professor, was also recognized.
