TitleLetter from W W [William Warwick] Buckland, 9 Grange Road, Cambridge, to [Joseph] Larmor
CreatorBuckland; William Warwick (1859-1846); British jurist
Date22 June 1919
DescriptionBuckland has had one or two conversations with Bromwich on the subject of law teaching in the university. They have lost Kenny and he lists other Fellows who are no longer available. There are only three college lecturers holding Fellowships and few others. There are insufficient staff members to teach the 200-250 students reading for honours and he discusses the present scattered arrangements in which the pay is so poor that it is unlikely to attract good men. Good law graduates normally go the the Bar instead. These and other considerations emboldened Buckland to write and he asks Larmor to induce his College to offer a Fellowship in Law.
