Inaugurated three years ago as "an important forward step in legal education," and backed by Supreme Court Jestice William O. Douglas, a joint course coordinating studies at Yale Law School and Harvard's School of Business Administration will be discontinued next year.

The course, which only three Yale Law students are taking this year, involves about seven months of study at Harvard School of Business Administration, in which time various Business courses important to Law students are theoretically taken.

However, according to students now in the course, considerable restrictions are placed upon courses which they may elect, with the result that students have been forced into courses of a purely business nature. One student found it impossible to take Legal Aspects of Business, a course which would contribute considerably to a Law School education.

Lack of Cooperation

Lack of cooperation between the two schools was also proven by the lapse of over ten days between the time of the students leaving Yale Law after mid-year examinations and starting their work at Harvard.

It has also been pointed out that no attempt has been made by Harvard Law School to establish such a course in cooperation with the Business School.

According to students now taking it, the course has not been made valuable enough from a legal point of view to justify the amount of time spent away from Law School by students.
