Ward returned to Georgia to practice law after completing his law degree at Northwestern and was invited by Hollowell to co-counsel the lawsuit filed by Holmes and Hunter to attend the University of Georgia -- the case that led to the desegregation of the university.
"Ward wanted to attend the University of Georgia because he was a native of Georgia (LaGrange), he wanted to practice law in Georgia, and he wanted to begin establishing the networks and relationships that benefit a young attorney," Daniels added.
Hoping to avoid a showdown, the university also offered to pay Ward's tuition at an out-of-state law school, a common practice at Southern universities seeking to maintain segregation.

 Abstract
This country's law schools taken together comprise a significant legal institution in their own right, one distinguished from all others by the extent of the intellectual capital it can create and by the weakness of its power to effect legal change directly.
But while law professors often sign their names to amicus briefs, letters, and petitions addressed to courts and other decision-makers considering questions of public interest, there are no common understandings of what a professor's signature on such a document means.
Part IV discusses the proposed convention for legal academics to follow in deciding whether to sign an opinion addressed to a court or legislature, and adds a few notes on the problem of partisanship.
