Bulletins & Course Catalogs
The earliest Ohio State University Bulletin was published in 1894; three years after law classes were first held downtown and the same year the new Law department moved to Hayes Hall on campus. The early bulletins list the law courses and include the names and degrees of the law faculty. Under the first full-time dean, William F. Hunter, the department became the College of Law in 1896. Beginning with the 1900-1901 academic year, the University bulletins included a separately published bulletin series for the College of Law.
