Excerpt from Curriculum Guide, Law Program, Junior High Middle School
An innovative program in legal education was inaugurated at Dorchester High School in March, 1968. The program was financed by a grant from the Office of Economic Opportunity, and was initiated by the Boston University Law School under the supervision of Attorney William M. Gibson, the Director of the Boston University Law and Poverty Project.
Through the use of such devices as mock-trials, role-playing, and simu lation, the students participating in the law program became involved in the process of the law. Also, the hypothetical case studies, which have been an integral part of the program, assist in making the study of law relevant to the life of the students. The program has been designed to attempt to develop positive concepts and attitudes toward the law, society, and the com munity, on the part of the participating students.
