The Wayne Law Review is one of Wayne Law's two student-published scholarly journals. The Review is published four times each year and contains articles, book reviews, transcripts, notes, and comments by prominent academics, practitioners, and students on timely legal topics. Three of the four annual issues include articles of general academic and professional interest authored by practicing attorneys and law professors, as well as comments written by the Review's student members. A fourth issue features an annual survey of developments in Michigan law and is widely read by members of the Michigan legal community.
Students are invited to join The Wayne Law Review on the basis of high academic standing or through a writing competition held each summer. Junior and senior Review members produce the publication under the direction of a senior administrative board. A faculty advisor oversees the general operation.
