The Tulane Environmental Law Journal (TELJ) is a biannual legal periodical produced and edited by students of Tulane Law School with the support of the faculty and administration of Tulane Law School. Tulane is recognized as having one of the strongest environmental law programs in the country, and TELJ has been rated as one of the top 15 environmental law journals. TELJ contains timely articles written by professors and practitioners, as well as commentary on recent cases written by journal members. We are committed to featuring scholarly articles that rigorously analyze a broad range of environmental issues affecting individuals, communities, and the nation at large. TELJ has enjoyed increased recognition and rapid growth since 1988, and each issue is available to millions of law students and professionals through the Westlaw and Lexis research services.
Membership
The Tulane Environmental Law Journal is a student-run and edited publication. Each year, TELJ selects junior members through a rigorous, law school-wide writing competition. The winners of the competition are offered membership based on the level of writing and analysis exhibited in their case notes. Membership on TELJ is a rewarding, if demanding, experience that allows students to develop their legal writing and analysis skills, while at the same time exposing them to cutting-edge issues in environmental law.
Publication Opportunities for Students
TELJ not only features noteworthy essays and articles by practitioners, professors, and other experts, but it is also proud to showcase the writings of its members. Each issue, up to four students who author superior case notes or comments are selected to have their works published.
