Abstract

The Journal of Legal Education (JLE) is the journal of record for American legal education. For more than 75 years, the JLE has played an essential role in chronicling the development of legal education in the United States. On October 8, 2025, the JLE will present a symposium, hosted by NYLS, at which today’s scholars will present their views on some of the most important work that has appeared in the journal over the preceding decades.

A series of panel discussions will address a wide range of articles from the JLE’s archives, and in some instances, authors will join in. The symposium complements the 2026 Annual Meeting, which will examine and reflect on the many contributions of legal education to our society and American life. Panels will be accessible both in person and online via Zoom. Papers written for the symposium will be published in a forthcoming issue of the JLE, which the University of California, Irvine School of Law and NYLS co-host. JLE editors also plan to make recordings of each discussion available through the Association of American Law Schools (AALS) website.
