President Harry S. Truman, upon learning of his predecessor’s death and subsequently being sworn in as the Nation’s president, stated to a crowd of reporters, “Boys, if you ever pray, pray for me now. . . . [W]hen they told me yesterday what had happened, I felt like the moon, the stars, and all the planets had fallen on me.” Truman’s eloquent quote describes my own feelings about being selected as the University of Missouri-Kansas City Law Review’s editor in chief. Although the awesome responsibilities held by the Nation’s chief executive officer dwarf those of a law review editor in chief, this fact did not help to alleviate my own anxiety. As a staff member, I merely Bluebooked articles and made feeble attempts at crafting them. My background possessed no indicia of editorial experience. Yet, I was expected to oversee an established law journal with more than fifty members. To say I felt a bit overwhelmed would be an understatement.
