Law Review Blog Posts on Resume?

Post by Anonymous User » Mon Feb 15, 2021 8:14 pm

Along with writing a Note, I have published a few times on our school's Law Review Blog. Is it appropriate to list these publications on my resume? If so, how would you cite it without it looking funky? Thanks!

Personally I think it's a bit strange to include as I doubt judges would view it as a plus.

I wouldn't advertise them. Definitely put your note on your resume though.

It depends on what's the content of the blog. If there's good serious legal analysis in an entry, it may not hurt. For anecdata, I published a Note and also wrote an online post for another journal analyzing a legal issue and proposing a recommendation (so basically a very concise note), and received good comments about that post in an interview. I don't think it was dispositive either way.
