The CONNECTICUT PUBLIC INTEREST LAW JOURNAL is a student-run, scholarly journal that publishes works by professors, judges, practitioners, and students. The JOURNAL’S publications are subjected to a rigorous editorial process designed to sharpen and strengthen substance, tone, and accuracy.

The JOURNAL’S primary purpose is to further the discussion of the legal aspects of public interest priorities relating to the many political, economic, and social issues, especially those faced by under-represented people.
