Florida Atlantic University Undergraduate Law Journal
About This Journal
The Florida Atlantic University Undergraduate Law Journal (ULJ) is the university's premier publication of legal scholarship. As an academic research journal, the articles within the ULJ are prepared using a stringent combination model, utilizing both peer and faculty review protocols. Alongside FAU's distinguished faculty of legal scholars, students are exposed to legal research, writing, and discourse. Inscribed in the FAU ULJ's logo is the Latin aphorism, "IPSA SCIENTIA POTESTAS EST", translating to "Knowledge is Power", a testament to the ULJ FAU's mission of promoting the community of legal academia to students and scholars alike.
The ULJ is published annually in the Spring by the campus organization of the same name. The ULJ’s editorial process includes revision and review by both students and faculty members. The purpose of the ULJ is to provide an environment and forum for the scholarly inquiry and study of current legal subjects. The ULJ strives for diversification in its journal; the accepted articles can pertain to any legal discipline and can be submitted by an undergraduate student of any major. The most exceptional articles from undergraduate authors are published in the annual journal. In publishing the journal, the ULJ hopes to stimulate and sustain undergraduate law discussion and education at FAU.
