Interested in being published? Still want to be on a journal?

The National Security Law Journal (NSLJ) is the only law journal at Mason to offer a unique publish-on option as an alternative path to journal membership. Our publish-on process starts after the write-on competition ends, and allows upper-class students (rising 2Ds, 2Es, and 3Es) to compete for membership by submitting an original article of publishable quality on a national security law topic. Students invited to join NSLJ through the publish-on process join as full Members, have the same opportunities and responsibilities as other full Members, and are eligible to compete for Editorial Board positions.

Publish-on submissions are due Friday, January 9, 2015, by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time. If you have written a seminar paper on a national security law topic, you now have an opportunity to improve it to meet our publishable quality standard and submit it before Friday night. For more information, please visit www.nslj.org/publishon/. You can also direct any questions to Alexander Yesnik, Editor-in-Chief of NSLJ, at alexander.yesnik@nslj.org .
