Sudent-Written Law Review Materials - Rule 16.6.2

These are cited in the same manner as other articles except that when it is signed by a student it must be so indicated. A student signed work is one where the work is credited to a student or to a student that co-wrote it (as determined anywhere in the work, i.e. beginning, end, etc). If it is student written, insert whether it was a "Comment," "Note," etc. after the author's name. If a work is still student-written but unsigned, then omit the author name (as there will be none).

For example,

Dana Johnson, Note, Why Bar Exams Do Not Test You for Practice, 66 Gla. L.R. 123 (2000).
