66 J. Legal Educ. 1 (2016-2017)

handle is hein.journals/jled66 and id is 1 raw text is: From the Editors We are pleased to present a provocative issue for your reading pleasure. The issue begins with ten diverse perspectives from a symposium on The Fu- ture of Legal Scholarship. We are grateful to Robin West who spearheaded the idea for the symposium, to the AALS for its sponsorship, to Dean Jeremy Paul and Professor Margaret Woo and their colleagues who hosted the sym- posium at Northeastern University School of Law in Spring 2oi6, and to the distinguished scholars who participated in the symposium and whose papers we are pleased to publish here. In our regular Articles section, Professor Andrew Kerr advocates the virtues for both reader and author of Writing the Short Paper-an article that inter- sects well with the symposium theme by opening up possibilities for alterna- tive forms and styles for effective legal scholarship. Addressing the well-being of law students, Professors Jerome Organ, David Jaffe, and Katherine Bender. Ph.D., present Suffering in Silence, an article that provides and analyzes the data from a 2014 survey of law students conducted at fifteen schools. The paper documents several possible causes of heightened distress among law students and outlines some of the particular obstacles that deter law students from seeking appropriate help. In a review essay-Christopher Columbus Langdell and the Public Law Curriculum- Professor Peter Strauss presents a masterly and critical account of the development and present state of the teaching materials for Administra- tive Law courses in most U.S. law schools. In reviewing the leading casebooks, past and present, he particularly faults the authors and editors for excessive attention to the subject ofjudicial review of regulatory actions and inadequate attention to legislative and internal agency process and norms, or to the skills all contemporary practitioners need for practice before agencies. This essay is key reading for any teacher of Administrative Law and other regulatory sub- jects. Finally, we close the issue with Professor Michael Dorf's review of Judge Richard A. Posner's recent book, Divergent Paths: he Academy and the Jiudiciay and a Response to the review by Judge Posner. If for no other reason than the contemporary domestic political controversy-and misunderstandings- about the proper role of the judiciary, all law teachers and deans should be interested in and concerned with improving education and training for members of the judiciary. We hope the Review and the Response inspire further deliberation and debate on this important task. Kate O'Neill Kellye Y Testy Journal of Legal Education, Volume 66, Number i (Autumn 2o16)
