Talk:Harvard Law Review
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Oldest?
The University of Pennsylvania Law Review also claims to be the oldest. According to the history on the web site of the Pennumbra, the American Law Register was first published in 1852 and was edited by "judges, lawyers and professors" until 1895 when one of the then-editors became Dean of the Penn law school. The first student-edited edition of the American Law Register appeared in 1896. In 1908, the name was changed to University of Pennsylvania Law Review and American Law Register and in 1945 the reference to the American Law Register was dropped.
Given that history, I think that Harvard's claim to the oldest student-edited law review is accurate. -- DS1953 talk 22:41, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
