Since 1928, the student-edited Mississippi Law Journal has served as an educational tool for students and a valuable research source for the legal community. The Journal is published three times each year and includes articles by distinguished professors, judges, and practitioners. In addition, the Mississippi Law Journal includes student-written case notes and comments. Each piece published is selected on the basis of excellence and topical interest.

Committed to the Journal’s tradition of excellence in service to its subscribers, the students are regularly called on to research, write, and edit material. Because of the demands of the Journal’s work, the staff and editorial board include only those students who meet superior academic standards. A recent editor in chief of the Journal characterized his work with the staff and board as the most rewarding of his law school career. “Leading one’s peers is never easy, but attempting to lead a group of extremely intelligent self-starters like these is indeed a challenge,” he said.
