Biography
The University of Missouri--Kansas City School of Law was founded as the Kansas City School of Law in 1895. Fifty-seven students enrolled including its first woman student, Linwood School teacher Hattie Z. Young. The school graduated its first class in 1897 with twenty-seven students. It added a third year of studies to its curriculum in 1903, and coursework extended to a four-year program in 1922.
The school first published The Dictum in 1898. The first yearbook was published in 1905, and began publishing under "The Pandex" in 1906. The Pandex publishes its last issues in 1936.
The K.C. School of Law merged with the University of Kansas City in 1938. The university began offering a J.D. degree the same year, and an LL.M. in 1954.
The University of Kansas City completed the Law School building at 52nd and Rockhill in 1950. A new building for the School of Law opened in 1979 at its present location at 52nd and Oak streets. The building includes the Leon E. Bloch Law Library, of which the school assumed administrative responsibility in 1975.
A notable student to attend the School of Law is U.S. President Harry S. Truman, who attended the K.C. College of Law from 1923 to 1925 and received an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from the University of Kansas City in 1945.
