The Texas Hispanic Journal of Law and Policy is one of five journals in the nation devoted to legal issues affecting the Hispanic community. The Journal provides an academic forum in which practitioners and scholars engage in a thorough discussion of recent court decisions, state and federal statutes, administrative regulations, policy questions, and other issues with particular salience for Hispanics. By maintaining a neutral position on all issues, the Journal encourages an exchange of diverse ideas and opinions. The Journal is published annually.
Membership is open to all students who demonstrate excellence in legal writing and analysis.
