Biographical and Historical Note
Wake Forest Jurist is an alumni magazine published by the Wake Forest School of Law and managed by a board of editors. An editor's note in the first issue from 1971 states that one of the primary functions was "to provide a meaningful link between the School of Law and its alumni." The magazine was published twice a year, in the fall and spring semester, until 2015, when publication shifted to once a year. Each issue typically opens with a message from the dean and includes law school news, organizational news, faculty notes, and alumni updates.
