Historical NoteReturn to Top
The Univeristy of Washington School of Law can be traced back to 1885 when the Board of Regents adopted the resolution to establish a law department. The department opened in 1899 while the University was still located in downtown Seattle. John T. Condon was appointed the first dean and the only full-time professor. The first class had at least 34 students including a student of African-American heritage, a Japanese student and three women. In 1901 the first graduating class consisted of twelve students. The University became a member of the Association of American Law Schools in 1909 and became accredited by the American Bar Association in 1924.
The department moved to Condon Hall in 1933, later moving in 1974 to the second Condon Hall on Campus Parkway. In 2003 the law school and the Marian Gould Gallagher Law Library move back to the main campus into the new William H. Gates Hall.
