Friday’s Scholarship About Scholarship – Addendum
At Concurring Opinions, a guest blogger who just finished his term as articles editor for the University of Chicago Law Review invites readers to ask him the editors’ perspective on the law review submissions process. David Schraub, Ask an Articles Editor!, Concurring Opinions, Aug. 5, 2011. Topics raised so far:
- the timing of submissions and acceptances
- the openness of journals to submissions by students from other schools
- the handling of requests to expedite review
- the reasons for running a symposium
- whether the review is pressured to accept articles from its own school’s faculty
- advice about cover letters
- how editors view papers posted on SSRN
- the odds of acceptance once a paper has made it to editorial board review
Prof. Schraub will be writing posts in response to these questions next week. mw
