- TCU relocated to downtown Fort Worth in 1910 when the Waco facility burned, and opened three new buildings on the present campus in 1911.

basics of success in law school
Anonymous rated 5 out of 5 stars
As a student of law in my first year we had mentors in the final year assigned to us whom i consulted for guidance through out my time of study. This enabled me fit into the system of law school much faster ie research became easier for me through out my time in school. i also shared with classmates on how we would leave law school with desirable grades which we achieved...
