Abstract
Student-edited law reviews are the currency of the legal academy. Publishing scholarship in respected law journals is a central factor in the decision-making process to hire, promote, and tenure law professors. However, the way editors choose manuscripts for publication is too susceptible to bias and too dependent on irrelevant signals, which exploit the labor of editors. This essay examines some of those troubling features and a few low-cost reforms to improve the system.
