Background During the third, fourth, and fifth semesters of their first full academic year, students are selected for candidacy on the Journal based on outstanding academic achievement or demonstrated writing ability. All other students in good academic standing may compete at the beginning of their second full semester in an open writing opportunity.
Students participating in the open writing opportunity submit a case comment for consideration.
A case comment is a short work summarizing and analyzing a recent case involving technology and the law. If the work demonstrates superior writing skills, the Journal extends a candidacy invitation. Students working on the journal can receive up to three credits toward graduation. The semester will pass quickly, therefore, Journal encourages you to devote the next several weeks to writing a comment that will be of publishable quality. The Open Writing Competition gives second, third, and fourth semester students the opportunity to become candidates for membership on the Journal by demonstrating their ability to write a case comment of superior quality.
