From an email I received last week from North Dakota psychology professor Richard Wise and LSU law professors Lucy McGough and James Bowers (reprinted with Richard's permission):
For the last several decades, there has been much controversy
and discussion about how well the current system of student run
law reviews and journals meet the needs of legal scholars, the
legal profession, and its student members and how they can be
improved. Despite the significance of this controversy, no one
has determined the legal community's opinions about them.
The
purpose of the present survey is to assess: (1) What law professors,
attorneys, judges, and law review editors think about the current
system of student run law reviews and journals; (2) Whether reforms
are needed; and (3) If reforms are needed, what they should be. The present survey is completely anonymous and confidential and only
takes about 15-20 minutes to complete. The results of the survey will
be reported in a law review article. A link for the survey is enclosed
below.http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SVJXVNW
We
are asking for your help with this important survey because the success
of any survey depends in large part on the number of people who
complete the survey. We would very much appreciate your answering the
survey and then forwarding it to other law professors who may be interested
in completing it!
Sounds like a worthwhile endeavor. So if you have a few minutes (it took me only ten), please take the survey.
