MacCrate Report recommendation re: skills instruction

From: Theodore Potter (FAC3176@UOFT01.BITNET)
Date: 10/11/93


In Part IV of _Legal Education and Professional Development - An Education
Continuum_ (commonly called the MacCrate Report), the Task Force on Law Schools
and the Profession recommends that:
 
     Each law school should undertake a study to determine which of the skills
and values described in the Task Force's Statement of Skills and Values are
presently being taught inits curriculum and develop a coherent agenda of skills
instruction not limited to the skills of *legal analysis and reasoning,* *legal
research,* *writing* and *litigation.* (Chapter 7.B, Chapter 7.C and Chapter
4.D)
 
Our questions are:
 
1. Has your law school undertaken such a study?
 
2. If so, please send me the name(s) of the person(s) responsible for writing
and/or implementing such a study, so that we may evaluate how to write and
implement this kind of study.
 
Please respond to me directly and thanks for your help!
 
 
 
Ted Potter
Assistant Law Librarian for Public Services
