About the LSU Law Journal for Social Justice & Policy
Our Mission
The LSU Law Journal for Social Justice & Policy is a student-edited academic journal based out of the LSU Paul M. Hebert Law Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The Journal was spearheaded in Fall 2019 by a pair of students interested in promoting the discussion of issues relating to social justice and public policy at LSU Law.
The mission of our Journal is to reach current and future members of the legal profession with fresh perspectives on controversial issues relating to social justice and policy and address a gap in the types of matters explored in the context of academic legal writing here at LSU Law.
Moreover, the Journal hopes to provide students with an additional forum to express their views concerning this subject and develop their legal writing skills through journal membership. Finally, we are committed to elevating the voices of law students, practitioners, and legal scholars, focusing on those in the South.
This journal will serve as a platform for all LSU Law students who are fundamentally committed to discussing social justice and policy through scholarly writing.
As with Louisiana Law Review and JELR, associates have the opportunity to be published in the journal. Joining our journal will also give you the chance to satisfy your upper-level writing requirement!
