Litchfield Law School, Litchfield, Connecticut1774 - 1833
Tapping Reeve established Litchfield Law School, in Litchfield, Connecticut in 1774, when his wife's brother, Aaron Burr, came to study law under Reeve.
According to the Litchfield Historical Society, wealthy families soon began sending their sons to Reeve to be tutored in the law. Reeve's class eventually became so large, he was forced to construct a one-room school house in 1874 in order to hold lectures.
More than 1,100 students attended the school, although none graduated because Litchfield didn't offer a degree program, just a solid foundation in the law and legal theory.
Many of the school's alumni became leaders in the state and federal government, 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 lower level politicians and lawyers.
