[4] Vermont Law School was founded in 1972 by Anthony Doria and held its first classes in the summer of 1973 with 113 students in what was then known as the old South Royalton schoolhouse.

[6] In December 1973, VLS was certified by the Vermont State Board of Education as an institution of higher learning.

Doria resigned as dean of the school in 1974, after it emerged that he had been convicted of embezzlement by a Pennsylvania court in 1960, though the charges were later vacated.

That statute passed by Congress required colleges and universities to allow military recruitment on campus or risk losing federal funding.

[21] The library contains over 250,000 print volumes, including primary and secondary legal materials focusing on state, national, and international law.

[22] The library also possesses a collection of microforms including congressional documents, state session laws, and briefs.

The oldest and centermost classroom building on the campus is Debevoise Hall, the town's original schoolhouse, built in 1892.

Practicing what it preaches, the Law School emphasized environmental concerns in the renovation, as well as historical preservation and design efficiency.

[32] Debevoise Hall continues to serve as classroom space and now also houses administration offices, the Environmental Law Center, and the Yates Common Room.
