- Title
HOW THE DISAPPEARANCE OF CLASSICAL RHETORIC AND THE DECISION TO TEACH LAW AS A "SCIENCE" SEVERED THEORY FROM PRACTICE IN LEGAL EDUCATION.

- Abstract
In October 2015, a group of law administrators, scholars, practitioners, and students convened at the 2015 Fall Symposium of the Wake Forest Law Review: Revisiting Langdell: Legal Education Reform and the Lawyer's Craft. The goal of the Symposium was to provide participants with a richer theoretical understanding of the intersection of legal education, legal scholarship, and the legal profession, with a focus on the inseparability of legal theory and law practice. Presentation topics ranged from the history of American legal education to law schools' ethical obligation to teach professional skills. This Article reiterates and expands on my remarks. Once again, I extend my thanks to our wonderful Symposium hosts: Christine Coughlin, Director of Legal Analysis, Research, and Writing and Professor of Legal Writing at Wake Forest University; Harold Lloyd, Associate Professor of Legal Analysis and Writing at Wake Forest University; and the entire editorial board of the Wake Forest Law Review, especially Don Morgan, Madison Benedict, and Lauren Emery.
