The Texas Undergraduate Law Review is Accepting Submissions and Applications for the Fall 2019 Issue

If you are interested in legal studies, please consider writing and submitting a legal analysis or law-related article to the Texas Undergraduate Law Review. TULR seeks articles on any legal topics ranging in length from approximately 10 to 25 pages. Each submission will be vetted, edited and published by a collection of editors over the course of the semester. 

Before submitting the article, please make sure it adheres to the guidelines outlined on our website here. The submission deadline for the Fall 2019 Issue is Friday, Oct. 4 at 11:59 p.m.

If you would like to become a permanent member of the organization, either as an editor or contributing writer, please consider applying to our organization as well. We are a community of similarly minded pre-law students who learn about legal writing through collaboration with each other, and it is a very friendly, educational environment.

Please find the application and its guidelines on our website here. The submission deadline for the Fall 2019 Issue is Friday, Sept. 20 at 11:59 p.m.

Integral Care has now approved a Mental Health First Aid training to take place on UT campus on Saturday, 10/19 from 8am-5pm. You can sign up here (password is mhfa10/19). The specific building location is TBD, and Integral Care will reach out to those who have signed up once that is confirmed. There are only 30 spots, so sign up fast, but please only take up a spot if you’re committed to attending on this date.

A short refresher on what MHFA is: MHFA is an 8-hour evidence-based training that gives individuals the tools they need to help someone who may be experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis. Mental Health First Aid can help save a person’s life, just like CPR and First Aid can save someone who is having a heart attack. It’s a nationally recognized certification, so in addition to learning valuable skills, it’s a way to show future employers that mental health is a priority for you.

Please reach out to graceschrobilgen@gmail.com with any questions.

Dear Longhorn:

The Archer Fellowship Program provides selected students from across the University of Texas System campuses the opportunity to live, learn and intern in Washington, D.C. We are looking for students with a passion for public policy and/or public service, but you don’t have to be a government or political communication major to apply! Are you a pre-med student interested in health policy? A business student interested in trade regulation? A liberal arts or social work student interested in criminal justice reform? Are you interested in how policy will impact your future profession?

 

If the answer is yes, the Archer Fellowship Program may be for you! Come learn about this unparalleled educational and professional opportunity by attending an information session. We welcome applications from students representing all majors and disciplines on campus. In fact, each year we select Archer Fellows from across campus who then pursue their professional and academic interests in Washington, D.C.

 

Applications for the 2020-2021 academic year will be due on Friday, February 15th, 2020.

Innovations for Peace and Development (IPD) is a student-led think tank that provides a space for interdisciplinary, policy-relevant research on global conflict, foreign aid, and poverty alleviation. IPD students immerse themselves in important research and manage their own projects. Teams gain valuable skills in geocoding, data visualizations, GIS mapping software, data cleaning, statistical analysis, and research methods.  In the past, our student researchers have participated in internships with prominent agencies such as USAID and AidData in Washington, DC, Williamsburg, VA, Ethiopia, Uganda, Senegal, Haiti, Mexico, Tanzania, Nepal, and Timor-Leste. Our work has also been featured by many noteworthy institutions including the World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and the United Nations. 

Interested students should fill out an application here and visit our website at www.ipdutexas.org. Our first meeting is Sep 6th from 1:00 to 2:00 in UTC 1.104
