History
According to its official website, the history of the law review is at follows:
"The Seattle University Law Review was originally published as the University of Puget Sound Law Review. Its inaugural issue was published in 1975, with the first Editor in Chief writing, "Striving to attain a quality of legal writing and analysis commensurate with the nascent tradition at this law school, the Editorial Board publishes this intramural edition. Hopefully this volume . . . represents a first and significant step toward a national law review that will serve the legal community." The Law Review continues to maintain this dedication to legal scholarship."[4]
