William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal
About this Journal
In the Spring of 1992, the Institute of Bill of Rights Student Division helped transform the Colonial Lawyer into the William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal.
Since 1992, BORJ has published important scholarly works on constitutional law. Issued four times per year - in October, December, March, and May - BORJ is ranked the third most-cited student-edited constitutional law journal by Washington and Lee's Law Journal Rankings Survey.
More information about the journal can be found on the William & Mary Law School website.
