Louis Brandeis School of Law - Louisville - Kentucky

The University of Louisville Louis D. Brandeis School of Law was founded in 1846, and is the fifth oldest law school in the country. The school is named after its largest patron, who was a United Supreme Court associate justice from 1916 to 1939. The law school shares its name with Brandeis University, though the two institutions are not related.

The University of Louisville is a public research university founded in 1798, via a charter by the Kentucky General Assembly. The university moved to its current location, the Belknap campus in 1923, and became a public state university in 1970.

The university is home to the Louisville Cardinals, and includes athletic programs for baseball, football and soccer. As of 2013 the Cardinals have won 50 Big East Championships across all sports.
