UW Law Celebrates Scholarly Excellence

The faculty at the University of Washington School of Law continues to enhance its reputation for scholarly excellence. This spring, our faculty placed articles in journals at the nation's top law schools, including the Columbia Law Review, the University of Chicago Law Review, the California Law Review and the Georgetown Law Journal.

Their articles reflect the diversity of expertise among our faculty members and cover a wide range of timely and important topics, including cybersecurity, gay rights, intellectual property, gun violence prevention, land rights, financial regulation and judicial review. These and other scholarly accomplishments by our faculty contribute to UW Law's reputation as one of the world's most respected centers for interdisciplinary legal scholarship.
