All Faculty Scholarship
This Article examines the issue of menstruation and the administration of the bar exam. Although such problems are not new, over the summer and fall of 2020, test takers and commentators took to social media to critique state board of law examiners’ (“BOLE”) policies regarding menstruation.

Personal products that are permitted often must be carried in a clear, plastic bag. Some express privacy concerns that the see-through …
