The Mitchell Hamline History Center mission is to develop and maintain this center to preserve the rich legacy of each law school; collect, exhibit and interpret archival material pertinent to the combined history; and establish a continuing means of understanding the new institution\u2019s origin, evolving development and impact on the community and the ever-changing field of legal education.<\/p>\n
The Mitchell Hamline History Center will be a valid and meaningful vehicle that celebrates the history of the new and predecessor schools, including aspects of missions from the past. It will develop, maintain and support pertinent archival research into how the combined school has served and is serving the community, particularly with respect to access to legal education, public service and improving the law. By strengthening an integrated identity, it will foster understanding of the school\u2019s roots and evolving history.<\/p>\n
