The Library and Riesenfeld Center's current exhibit, in celebration of the 40th anniversary of Walter F. Mondale Hall, highlights the development of plans for a new Law School building and its 2001 addition, and pays tribute in photographs to the Law School's great friend, Walter Mondale ('56), and his deep involvement in the life of the Law School for over six decades.
