Editor in Chief: Ryan M. Scott
Faculty/Staff Advisor: Prof. Allison Weiss

The Washington and Lee Journal of Civil Rights and Social Justice (JCRSJ) is a scholarly publication focusing on legal issues that affect historically underrepresented classes of persons. JCRSJ has published articles covering a wide variety of subject matter including real estate, education, healthcare, family, environment, public welfare, tax, criminal justice, and international rights. JCRSJ's mission is to explore the intersection of majority and minority culture through discrete legal issues. To that end, JCRSJ seeks to provide a space for scholars of all persuasions to develop and expand upon theoretical, critical, and socially relevant dialogue with the legal community. JCRSJ seeks to help readers understand the issues that face our society today.

Students may write on to JCRSJ at the end of their 1L year and are selected based upon their write-on submission grade and their 1L grades. 2L staff writers cite check scholarly articles and produce their own piece of scholarly work during their 2L year, and 3L board members manage the Journal.
