The Journal of College and University Law is a publication of the National Association of College and University Attorneys (NACUA) and the Notre Dame Law School. It is a refereed, professional journal specializing in contemporary legal issues and developments important to postsecondary education. 

The Journal publishes articles, commentaries (scholarly editorials), book reviews student notes and student case comments. Experts in the law of higher education review all manuscripts. Submitted manuscripts are reviewed and considered as they are received throughout the year.

Manuscripts should be typewritten on 8 1/2"x 11" paper and should be double-spaced. Set-off quotations should be double-spaced. Footnotes should reflect the format specified in the sixteenth edition of A Uniform System of Citation (the "Bluebook"). A paragraph on the title page should provide the position, educational background, address and telephone number of the author. Each author is expected to disclose in a footnote any affiliation or position, past present or prospective, that could be perceived to influence the author's views on matters discussed in the manuscript. 

Decisions on publication usually are made within four weeks of a manuscript's receipt. A student editor, an outside reviewer, and the Faculty Editor edit articles accepted for publication. The Journal submits editorial changes to the author for approval before publication. The Faculty Editor reserves the right of final decision concerning all manuscript changes.

When an article is approved for publication, the Journal retains the exclusive right to publish it, and the copyright is owned by NACUA.
