University of Cincinnati College of Law#Publications

The University of Cincinnati College of Law was founded in 1833 as the Cincinnati Law School. It is the fourth oldest continuously operating law school in the United States — after Harvard, the University of Virginia, and Yale — and the first in the nation's interior. In 1900, it was a charter member of the Association of American Law Schools.{{cite web |title=History |url=https://law.uc.edu/about/history.html |access-date=10 August 2022 |website=University of Cincinnati College of Law |language=en-us}} Then-dean (and future 27th President of the United States) William Howard Taft (1880) merged it with the University of Cincinnati in 1896. Its notable alumni include two U.S. Supreme Court justices, Willis Van Devanter and Taft, who was Chief Justice of the Supreme Court after his presidency. Additionally, Jimmy Nippert, the namesake of the university's Nippert Stadium, was a student at UC Law at the time of his death in 1923.{{cite web |title=Complete story of how UC's Nippert Stadium got its namesake |url=https://magazine.uc.edu/issues/0413/jimmy_nippert.html}}
