Columbia Undergraduate Law Review: Call for Submissions

I just received the below announcement from the Columbia Undergraduate Law Review, which is seeking submissions ASAP for its Spring 2011 issue. You don't have to be a Columbia student to submit - you can be a student anywhere in the world, and you can re-use papers from your undergraduate courses.

This is a great way to get published and to add a few extra lines to your resume. You can email culr@columbia.edu with your submissions.

Details:

The Columbia Undergraduate Law Review, a journal of undergraduate legal scholarship based at Columbia University in the City of New York, is accepting submissions for its Spring 2011 issue. The deadline for submissions is Monday, February 7, 2011 at 11:59 p.m, Eastern Time.

In recognition of the various paths undergraduates may take to study law, we welcome submission of research articles, senior theses, and essays embracing a wide range of topics and viewpoints related to the field of law. Undergraduate students in any major, track, or class year should thus feel free to send us their work. Check out www.culr.weebly.com to view past journals or to read our mission statement.

Submissions should be double-spaced in Microsoft Word .doc format, follow the Chicago style, and include endnotes. Although we will consider submissions of any length, most papers published in the journal range from 20 to 25 pages. It would be highly appreciated if longer papers could be shortened to fit this page length recommendation before submission. In the document please also include the following information:

1) Your name
2) Current email address and phone number
3) Undergraduate college/university
4) Class year
5) Title
6) 250-word abstract
7) Short explanation of when and why paper was initially written

Sincerely,
The Columbia Undergraduate Law Review
