Welcome to the Legal History Consortium. The Consortium is jointly sponsored by the Law School and the Graduate History Department at the University of Pennsylvania. It was formed to promote interdisciplinary research, scholarship and education in law and history, with a focus on the American legal past. Faculty affiliated with the Consortium specialize in American history and law, and are committed to training graduate students in the best tradition of interdisciplinary work. The Consortium sponsors a speaker series, a joint degree program in law and history, and in 2008 a conference.
