Louisville Law Review welcomes new members
The University of Louisville Law Review welcomed new members in June 2017.
Founded in 1961, the Law Review's mission is to provide a scholarly forum devoted to developing the law, evaluating legal institutions and analyzing issues of law and public policy.
Candidates for staff membership on the Law Review are selected during the spring semester of their first or second year of law school. The selection process is chosen by the incoming editorial board and typically consists of an evaluation based on a review of the candidate’s analysis of a legal topic and cumulative GPA. After evaluation of each candidate, the editors extend invitations of first-year membership to meritorious applicants.
During the first year, members submit a student note for potential publication in the following year's volume. The first-year members also assist in publishing the Law Review by performing tasks such as proofreading and cite checking. When first-year members have completed the requirements, they are accorded second-year membership and the opportunity to be considered for editorial positions.
