Women have much to celebrate in 2020, as it is the centennial of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guaranteeing a woman’s right to vote! And, for those of us involved in the legal profession and legal education, we can also celebrate something that has never happened before: the law reviews of all of America’s top law schools are simultaneously being headed by women!

These exceptional women from Harvard, Yale, Stanford, UChicago, Columbia, UPenn, NYU, UVA, UMichigan, Duke, Northwestern, Berkeley, Cornell, Georgetown, UCLA and UTAustin* have collaborated to author Women & Law (https://law.duke.edu/sites/default/files/news/WomenandLaw.pdf) a compendium of articles authored by female attorneys. These articles provide important underpinnings for the historical, societal and other factors that have held women back - and - allowed for their progress. They also point out that there is still much to be done. I invite you to take a look at these articles and to join me in thanking all of the women who have made our progress possible!
