American
Journal of Jurisprudence (The Natural Law Institute)
The Natural Law Institute, a function of the Notre Dame Law
School, was established in 1947. In 1956, the Institute
founded the Natural Law Forum, the only journal of
its kind in the English language. The name of the journal
was changed in 1970 to the American
Journal of Jurisprudence.
The Journal published articles and review
essays critically examining the moral foundations of law and
legal systems and exploring current and historical issues
in ethics, jurisprudence, and legal (including constitutional)
theory. Unsolicited manuscripts are welcome. Further information
about submissions is provided in the "Notice
to Contributors."

Notre
Dame Law Review
The Notre Dame Law Review was founded in 1925 and was known
as the Notre Dame Lawyer until the name was changed in 1982.
It is published five times a year by students of the Law School.
It affords qualified students an invaluable opportunity for
training in precise analysis of legal problems and in clear
and cogent presentation of legal issues. The Law Review contains
articles and lectures by eminent members of the legal profession
and comments and notes by members of the staff. Entirely student
edited, the Law Review has maintained a tradition of excellence,
and its membership has included some of the most able judges,
professors and practitioners in the country.
Members of the staff are selected at the end of the first
year of study on the basis of either academic standing or
demonstrated writing ability.
The editor-in-chief of the Law Review is elected by the staff
from senior members on the basis of scholastic, literary and
leadership achievements. The editor-in-chief, in turn, selects
the other officers.

The
Journal of College and University Law
The Journal of College
and University Law, published by the Notre Dame Law School
and the National Association of College and University Attorneys,
is the only law review in the United States dedicated exclusively
to the law of higher education. Since post-secondary education
represents a microcosm, virtually all legal issues of significant
interest--including, for example, interests of race, gender,
freedom of speech, religion and bioethics--arise on our campuses.
The Journal has a national circulation of 3,800.
Headed by both faculty editors and a student editor, the Journal
maintains a staff of 25 students who both process the work
of outside authors and contribute their own work for publication.
The Journal publishes three times a year.

The
Journal of Legislation
The Journal of Legislation
is published by students of the Notre Dame Law School. Of
national orientation and scope, the Journal contains articles
by both public policy figures and distinguished members of
the legal community. In addition, it publishes notes written
by members of the staff. All material contained in the Journal
concerns either existing and proposed legislation or public
policy matters. Some articles and notes make specific suggestions
regarding legislative change. The Journal is presently one
of the country's leading legislative law reviews and is a
member of the National Conference of Law Reviews.
Staff members are selected among students who have either
written a note of "publishable quality" or completed
a major research project approved by the editorial board.
Journal work enables students to add to their legal education
practical experience with legislation and the legislative
process.
These programs enable students at the Law School to influence
various legislators, public interest groups and members of
Congress.
If you would like more information on the Journal, or are

Notre
Dame Journal of Law, Ethics and Public Policy
The Notre Dame Journal
of Law, Ethics and Public Policy is unique among legal
periodicals insofar as it directly analyzes law and public
policy from an ethical perspective. The Journal
of Law, Ethics and Public Policy strengthens the Law School's
moral and religious commitment by translating traditional
Judeo-Christian principles into imaginative, yet workable,
proposals for legislative and judicial reform.
Directed at both scholarly and public audiences, the Journal
publishes in a symposium format and solicits contributions
from distinguished scholars and prominent members of the public
community. Recent issues have addressed the problems posed
by serious juvenile crime, homelessness and AIDS. Forthcoming
issues will focus on civil disobedience, the drug problem,
the feminist challenge to traditional legal doctrine and the
law governing the news media.
