Activity highlights are as follows: I. Accreditation. There now are 163 ABA-approved law schools offering the J.D. degree program, 13 of which are provisionally approved; 5 applications for provisional approval are pending. Reinspections were conducted of 8 fully approved schools, 2 provisionally approved schools, and 1 unapproved school seeking ABA approval. In addition, a hearing was held to determine whether one school's ABA approval should be removed. II. Bar Admissions. On December 11, 1976 a con- ference was held on bar admissions of foreign law school graduates, co-sponsored by the National Conference of Bar Examiners. It was attended by 85 bar examiners and legal educators. An edited transcript will be available in March. III. Two-Year Law School Study. Responding to a proposal by the ABA's President, a committee was appointed to study the feasibility of conducting an experimental law school course consisting of two years' formal legal education followed by one year of con- tinuing legal education. IV. Learning and the Law. Two issues were pub- lished; the Summer issue was devoted to clinical legal education; the Fall issue dealt with a variety of topics.
