Environmental Law Journal Early Action Open Office Hours

The Environmental Law Journal is accepting Early Action applications from March 28th to April 11th, and we invite current 1Ls, 2Ls, and LLMs interested in joining the journal to attend one of our upcoming info sessions. These informal events give some insight into what it's like to work on ELJ and about the journal experience in general. Whether you’re curious about ELJ, environmental law, or just what journals are in the first place, we encourage you to stop by!

What’s Early Action? It’s a chance to join ELJ without the pain of the summer writing competition! What’s ELJ? One of the legal field’s premier outlets for scholarship on environmental law and related issues! Check out our website for some of our recent scholarship, and come to one of our info sessions to learn more about why you should join ELJ.
