Litchfield Law School, 1774 - 1833
The first law school in the United States was Litchfield Law School, in Litchfield, Connecticut, established by Tapping Reeve in 1774. The school closed in 1833.
Reeve's first student was his wife Sally's brother, Aaron Burr. For the first decade, students attended school in Reeve's home, but the class eventually became so large he constructed a one-room schoolhouse (1784) to accommodate his students.
Among the school's alumni were three US Supreme Court justices, and the father of a fourth justice:
US Supreme Court Justices
Henry Baldwin
Levi Woodbury
Ward Hunt
Lucius Lamar II's father, Lucius Lamar I
The school boasted quite a few influential students, including two Vice-Presidents (Aaron Burr, Jr., and John C. Calhoun), 101 Congressmen, 28 US Senators, 6 US Cabinet members, 3 US Supreme Court Justices, 14 Governors, 13 Chief Justices of state supreme courts, and many other lesser known politicians and lawyers.
