Kansas Law Review

Founded in 1952, the Kansas Law Review is a nonprofit corporation staffed and managed by a group of between 40 and 50 students at the University of Kansas School of Law. The students work together each year to publish one volume of the Kansas Law Review, comprising five different issues. Each issue contains material written by student members of the Law Review, law professors, judges and practicing attorneys. The Law Review also hosts an annual symposium at the law school.

In addition to publishing scholarly articles, the Kansas Law Review also provides a supervised writing, research and publishing experience for its members. Each staff member must complete all assigned deadlines and remain academically eligible. Satisfactory completion of required work fulfills the upper-level writing requirement. Membership on the staff of the Kansas Law Review is a one-year commitment. Staff members who fulfill all requirements are eligible to hold editorial positions in their third year.
