Wisconsin Law Review

The Wisconsin Law Review (Bluebook abbreviation: Wis. L. Rev.) is a bimonthly law review published by students at the University of Wisconsin Law School. One issue each year is generally dedicated to a symposium or special topic.

The Wisconsin Law Review was established in 1920 by students and faculty of the law school. The first issue was published in October 1920. In 1935, the journal became entirely student-edited.

Students are awarded staff membership based primarily on their performance in a writing competition at the end of their first year of law school. First-year grades and contribution to the diversity of the journal are also considered.
