History
Capital University Law School grew from the Columbus Law School, which was founded in 1903 as part of a national program sponsored by the YMCA to make legal education practical, accessible, and affordable. Since its affiliation with Capital University in 1966, the law school has grown considerably. Its faculty now stands at 67 and its Law Library holdings have increased to more than 260,000 volumes, periodicals, and microfilms.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The one duty we owe to history is to rewrite it.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“To care for the quarrels of the past, to identify oneself passionately with a cause that became, politically speaking, a losing cause with the birth of the modern world, is to experience a kind of straining against reality, a rebellious nonconformity that, again, is rare in America, where children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“My good friends, this is the second time in our history that there has come back from Germany to Downing Street peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. And now I recommend you to go home and sleep quietly in your beds.”
—Neville Chamberlain (1869–1940)
