A Jostens Rep On Law school publishes journal By MELISSA TENNEN Staff Writer USC law students have published a journal addressing environmental law issues that is the first of its kind in the Southeast. The journal, "South Carolina Environmental Journal," is being used a resource by the general public and judges and lawyers working in the courts every day, according to staff member James Franklin. The journal emphasizes environmental law, the fastest growing field in the legal profession, within the state legislature and court systems of South Carolina. "The paper is unique in that few publications in existence deal so specifically with this virulent issue," Franklin, a third-year law student, said. The first issue, marked as a sue cess by its 46-member starr, was published in January of this year. This semester's editor in chief, Scott Robinson, decided such a journal devoted to the topic was necessary because of the increasing public concern in recent years. It is the first of its kind in the Southeast. "It's a growing field, and the law school with a lot of foresight saw the need for this kind of journal," he said. Franklin said, "This is comprised mainly of scholarly articles on issues facing the environment." Journal staff members attract contributing writers from various companies, environmentalists, legislators and business leaders in South Carolina. The journal encourages advocates of both sides r . _ i . % or an issue 10 oe represented. The journal is attempting to find subscribers in hopes of becoming self-sufficient, relying upon their own funds rather than law school funds. Past successful methods have mostly been through word of mouth, radio and sporting events, according to Franklin. The journal is published twice a year. The subscription cost is $20. "I think it is a good idea because student loans are federal money and drug use is against the law. If a person is receiving government money for his education then he should be responsibe enough to obey the laws," Jenkins said. 11tfHI /J u iJ .
