It is an honor to open this timely conference. I hope that the participants, each a distinguished authority in the social sciences and school desegregation litigation, will treat with tolerance my random remarks-old hat to many-on the role of social sciences in the judicial decision-making process in school desegregation cases. The conference is timely because the twentieth anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education1 is a logical point at which to assess the relationship between school desegregation and the enhancement of the life chances of members of minority groups. I have an old-fashioned fondness for Jhering, Erhlich, and Pound2 who thought of law as a means to the end of protecting social interests by the authority of the state. These are the early socio-legal thinkers whose spirits hover over this conference. Perhaps Brown and its progeny may be rationalized in accord with their thinking without doing violence to Wechsler's doctrine of neutral principles.3
