Abstract: This paper examines the relationship between universities which house law schools and appropriations per student. Specifically, it is hypothesized that universities with law schools will have higher state appropriations, other things the same, because these universities are likely to have more alumni in the state legislature. This argument is supported by both Ordinary Least Squares and Two Stage Least Squares analysis.
