The Campus
USL is housed in a colonial style building, which is
centrally located in the heart of the city. The campus spreads on a vast stretch of greenery and salubrious
surroundings. The impressionist style building retains its charm
and charisma despite dating back to the British era. The campus prides itself with some of the best manicured lawns of
the city. The main block houses the administrative section,
whereas the flanking building houses the classrooms, library,
computer room and faculty chambers, along with all the other
administrative paraphernalia.

The Lecture Halls
The Lecture Block has 16 spacious lecture halls, with one lecture hall for each year. All lecture halls are well lit with
natural as well as artificial lighting to facilitate a stress free
learning experience. The entire campus is on a 100% power back-up system to fight the occasional power cut.
The Library
USL is equipped with a high-tech library. The most modern innovations in the field of library and information sciences are in use. A large number of quality books on different subjects are available. Quite a few Law Journals like AIR, Supreme Court Cases, Criminal Law Journal etc, Periodicals, and Reporter Law magazines etc. and regular subscriptions to all major
National and Regional newspapers aim to keep our budding lawyers abreast with the latest news and
happenings. With total of about 2000 books, reference material and journals, no student at USL shall ever need anything more.
The textbook section and the journals and periodicals section of the library have different timings. The textbook section opens at 9.00am and is open till 6.00pm, though books are not issued after 5.00 pm. The Journals and Periodicals section will soon be fully searchable on a computerized database and this is very useful indeed. A similar database of journal articles is also in the process of being compiled. Each student is issued a library card and is allowed four books on it, for a period of seven days. The books have to be returned by the stipulated time, failing which a strict fine is incurred. The journals and
periodicals section is open from 9.00 am till 6.00pm. The library has been provided with a photocopier for the use of
students. The library offers up-to-date equipment to facilitate hassle free sharing and distribution of information - electronic
as well as physical.
