Wayne Law Review Information

The Wayne Law Review is dedicated to achieving the goals of publishing a high-quality legal journal; teaching valuable skills in writing, research, and legal analysis to its members; and providing an enjoyable law school experience to its members. The Review is operated by its student members with these goals in mind. These Bylaws seek to facilitate these goals by providing a framework for the operation and management of the Review. The Wayne Law Review is Wayne Law’s primary scholarly journal. The Review is published three times each year and contains articles, book reviews, transcripts, notes, and comments by prominent academics, practitioners, and students on timely legal topics. Law students both fully operate the Review and are responsible for its content. Junior and senior Review members produce the publication under the direction of a senior administrative board. Faculty advisors oversee the general operation. Review members receive two credits for each year of membership. To receive credit, students must work on the Law Review for at least one full year, but returning for a second year is strongly encouraged. During their first year on the Review, members are required to write a publishable Note and complete three source-checking and editing assignments. All student-written Notes are considered for publication in Review.
