The UC Law Constitutional Quarterly is a quarterly law review covering constitutional law edited by students of the University of California College of the Law, San Francisco. While most articles focus on issues arising under the United States Constitution, the journal also covers topics concerning state and foreign constitutions. Established in 1973, it is the oldest law journal in the United States devoted exclusively to constitutional issues. It was titled the Hastings Constitutional Law Quarterly from its founding until 2023.
