The Southern Region Black Law Students Association Law Journal is in the process of soliciting members for its 2009-2010 Editorial Board.Created in 2005, the Journal is a student run publication of the Southern Region of the National Black Law Students Association. The Journal was created as an answer for a lack of representative voice for issues facing Southern African Americans. It endeavors to provide an outlet for both professional and student-authored works that embody the Journal’s mission of serving as a vehicle for social, economical, and political uplift in the Southern African American community. The Journal has attracted a great academic and professional audience, and as a result, the 2008-2009 Journal will be published on Westlaw.
Law Journal experience is a very valuable asset to have. Not only will it help you enhance your legal writing skills, but most legal employers look very favorable upon candidates who possess journal experience and often prefer it. In this current job market it is necessary to utilize all resources available. Rising 2Ls and 3Ls are invited to apply.
