The Law Students Association is committed to assisting King Hall's legal journals. Nearly every student at King Hall is involved in at least one legal journal. These organizations provide both a practical research and writing experience, and often help students lay the foundations for a professional career. Many of these groups are already working to form closer ties with like-minded alumni, all the while raising King Hall's profile of excellence. Symposia and guest lectures provide thought-provoking and wholly worthwhile discussion within our school. Our journals deserve the respect and funding of our student body and administration. The LSA is determined to help support the ongoing educational value of the journals through limited funding of citation instruction.
LSA will accept proposals for food and refreshment money for cite-checking lessons or other general research classes from any King Hall journal. Additionally, LSA will fund food and refreshments for one additional general meeting per journal per semester. LSA may fund additional meetings on the basis of available funds. Please submit a copy of receipts and a record of students in attendance (e.g., a sign-in sheet).
- The lesson must be open to all King Hall students.
- Journals can encourage but cannot require participants in a lesson to work on an article for publication in the journal.
- The event must be well-publicized using fliers placed on the general bulletin boards and through the LSA President's weekly activity email.
- The maximum amount granted per event is $125.
- Each journal is eligible to receive up to $300 each year for three class/lesson events.
- To increase your journal's chances of receiving funding in the future, please submit a copy of receipts and a record of students in attendance (e.g., a sign-in sheet).
