 * Delete - I de-prodded it to give us a few more days to check on its notability, which according to the nom, is correct; this journal is not notable. It has almost no citations on the two largest social science databases. Bearian (talk) 20:13, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment According to the rankings at the Washington and Lee University School of Law the journal is ranked by impact 804th out of something like 1500 journals (difficult to see, as many journals get the same rank and the lowest ones are not numbered). --Guillaume2303 (talk) 15:51, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
 * PS: it is quite normal for law reviews to be edited by students. In fact, almost all US law reviews are student-edited. I don't know much about what makes a law journal notable, though, so for the moment I'm abstaining from !voting. --Guillaume2303 (talk) 17:37, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
