Welcome to The Journal!
The Journal component of the University of Wisconsin Pre-Law Journal (UWPLJ) showcases research-driven articles that explore legal issues, judicial decisions, and the law’s influence on society, politics, and culture. Unlike our blog, The Journal features contributions from pre-law–focused students selected through an application process. Each article undergoes a multi-stage peer review and editorial process, with writers collaborating closely with their editors to ensure clarity and depth.
In order to read our published journal articles, please select one of our issues.
Applications for writers and editors open to UW–Madison Pre-Law Society members at the start of each fall and spring semester.
