[quote]No, of course not.  :-)  [b]The problem is that the law reviews don't publish these policies online for all to see.[/b]But, seriously, ask a friend who was on the Review about the process for picking new members; they take race and sex into account in some way, although it differs a little from year to year. There are news articles about how that era started at the Review by a controversial vote some time before Obama started law school. [/quote]

Except when they do . . .

(Seriously, that Google thing you've heard so much about?  It works.)

So it appears that membership in the Harvard Law Review does not take race and sex into account.  Despite what half your friends say.  It does appear that, after they choose 34 editors from competitive processes, other editors are selected on a discretionary basis, that they may take diversity into account in those selections.  So I'm sure that Obama couldn't have POSSIBLY been selected to the editorial board based on the competitive process, right?  That's what I thought.  But regardless, he still had to do the competition to get on to the HLR int eh first place.  Unless there's also some conspiracy there . . . ?    [/quote]
