The Chicago-Kent Law Review began in 1923 as the Chicago-Kent Review<\/a>, a spiritual successor to the earlier Chicago-Kent Bulletin<\/a>. During its near-century run, the journal has published over three-thousand articles which have collectively received over one-million downloads since 2013. In that time, the Chicago-Kent Law Review has received countless contributions from some of the nation\u2019s foremost thinkers and influencers, including Justice John<\/a><\/span> Paul<\/a> Stevens<\/a>, Circuit Judges Richard<\/a> A.<\/a> Posner<\/a>, Frank H.<\/a> Easterbrook<\/a>, Diane Wood<\/a>, Ilana Diamond Rovner<\/a>, Walter J. Cummings<\/a>, Luther M.<\/a> Swygert<\/a>, Dean Erwin<\/a> Chemerinsky<\/a>, Professor William N. Eskridge, Jr.<\/a>, Governor Richard B. Ogilvie<\/a>, and even author Michael Crichton<\/a>\u2014among many others. The journal in 1987 moved to an all-symposium format, meaning that each issue presents articles devoted to a single topic. Currently, the Chicago-Kent Law Review publishes one volume with up to three issues each year.<\/p>\n

The Law Review develops its members’ scholarship and legal writing through a comprehensive one-year writing program. Each issue of the Law Review showcases several of the best student works. The Faculty Advisory Board offers Chicago-Kent Law Review guidance on symposia selection while journal staff manage day-to-day operations and retain editorial control.<\/p>\n

About the Law Review Symposium Format<\/h3>\n

The Chicago-Kent Law Review only publishes symposium issues. With the exception of student Notes written by its members, the Law Review does not publish unsolicited articles. Typically, the Law Review will work with a panel of authors assembled by a symposium editor to publish a set of articles on a relevant legal topic or theme. A typical symposium contains 9 to 12 articles, with a varied page range per article.<\/p>\n
