Three members of the Wisconsin Law Review's senior editorial board have had articles accepted for publication at outside law journals. The Law Review is a student-run journal of the University of Wisconsin Law School, which publishes articles on a variety of contemporary legal topics.
Skylar Croy, who served as editor-in-chief for 2018-19, said the Law Review held a meeting this spring to encourage members to submit their work to journals outside of the Law School. Moving forward, the board hopes to foster a culture of publishing externally, he said.
The students and their publications include:
- Editor-in-chief Croy had three articles accepted for publication, including "When the Law Makes 'The Lords of Discipline' Actual Lords: Lessons on Writing Criminal Hazing Statutes" in University of La Verne Law Review; "The Problem of Change: Rethinking Critiques of 'New Originalism'" in Drake Law Review Discourse; and "Leave Me My Name: An Argument for Bar Regulation of Competitive Keyword Advertising," forthcoming in Marquette Law Review.
- Christopher Logel's comment, "Cracking Graham: Police Department Policy and Excessive Force," appears in the Berkeley Journal of African-American Law & Policy. His article "Ghastly Signs and Tokens: A Constitutional Challenge to Solitary Confinement," is forthcoming in the Idaho Law Review.
- Julia Walsh's article, "How to Combat the Dangers of the NFL's Ambigious and Abtuse Anti-Collusion Clause," is forthcoming in the Virginia Sports & Entertainment Law Journal.
According to Professor Keith Findley, the Law Review's faculty advisor, the students' achievement is noteworthy. “This is really quite extraordinary; only very rarely do law journals publish student pieces from students from other law schools. To have three in one year is really remarkable, and a testament to the quality of our students, their writing and their engagement with legal scholarship,” Findley said.
