Members

Membership on the Journal

Members are chosen each year from the upcoming class of second year students. Along with several of the other journals on campus, we select out members through the summer joint write-on competition. In addition, a relatively small number of students grade on to the journal.

Transfer students should contact Jay McCormick at cilj.eic@gmail.com immediately if interested in membership on the Connecticut Insurance Law Journal. Transfer students must submit a resume and either a writing sample containing a minimum of twenty footnote citations or a writing sample and a completed bluebook exercise, which will be provided upon request.

Our members have a broad background of skills and academic interests. Some current members have years of experience in the insurance industry. Although we encourage all members to take an insurance law class by the end of their second year, many people do not do so until the spring of that year. In their first year, new members complete approximately four to six cite checks and write a note or a comment. In their second year of membership, most members choose to run for a position on the Editorial Board. Please contact Jay McCormick at cilj.eic@gmail.com for inquiries about membership.
