Students benefit in many ways by serving as members of the Washington Law Review. Second-year students improve their legal writing by writing a publishable-quality student comment. Third-year students develop stronger critical-reading skills as they help professional and student authors make their arguments as clearly and persuasively as possible. Third-year students who serve on the Law Review’s Executive Board also grow into stronger leaders, capable of keeping their highly motivated peers working as a team.
The Law Review sponsors an annual writing competition for students ending their first of law school. Twenty-four students receive invitations to become members. Students may also become members by writing a Comment during their second year of law school.
The Law Review Class of 2009 recently took the helm, and will publish Volume 84. The first Comments of the Class of 2010 will appear in the same volume.
