Michael E. Leiter, the review's outgoing president, said the number of women who make the review has increased in the past few years.
According to Leiter, just five or seven years ago, there were fewer than 10 women on the staff of the review.
Leiter said in recent years, however, "it's [become] the norm to have both men and women lead the Law Review."

Two of the last three elected presidents--Katherine M. Christensen in 1998 and Small in 2000-- have been women.
"Anne is certainly an exclamation point at the end of our history," Leiter said.
Women represented 47 percent of entering students at the law school this year, the highest percentage to date, a law school spokesperson said.
