2026-2027 Masthead

Students are chosen to become CJIL staff members by the Board through a blind writing competition held during the summer immediately prior to the participants’ second year at the University of Chicago Law School. The Board may also select students to become staff members during or after their second year, or may select LLM students, based upon submission of a publishable written piece. Each spring, the outgoing Board selects a new Board for the following academic year. The Board generally is selected from among those students having served as CJIL staff members.
