Undergraduate Law Review Application

 To my Esteemed Peers,

My name is Connor Lenox, and I am an undergraduate student majoring in Economics with the hopes of one day attending law school and working as a corporate attorney. During my time at UMD, I have noticed several legal based clubs and organizations, but I found that the University was missing an opportunity to develop students’ legal writing skills, so I decided to create an Undergraduate Law Review.

Other undergraduate institutions, including UPenn, Columbia, Georgetown, and UC Berkeley, have created Undergraduate Law Reviews. The thought of creating a Review at UMD to sit among this impressive list is beyond exciting to me and other individuals involved, and I hope it has the same effect on you as well. It is my hope that the University of Maryland can greatly develop its reputation for producing highly successful legal candidates, and rival other D.C. area schools in this regard. Over the past few months I have been fortunate enough, with great support from the MLAW program, to officially make the Maryland Undergraduate Law Review a reality.

With this Undergraduate Law Review, students at Maryland have the opportunity to both learn and showcase new talents, network with notable alumni and faculty members, and be able to say they were a part of the inaugural editorial team. This review will not be possible without driven and intelligent students like yourselves, and I look forward to meeting with all you over the coming months. If the thought of being a part of the Law Review interests you, I encourage you to fill out the application here.

With Excitement, 

Connor Lenox
