This spring, the faculty of the University of Cincinnati College of Law approved the creation of a new student-edited scholarly journal to be published at the College. Tentatively named the Cincinnati Intellectual Property and Computer Law Journal, the Journal will address matters of importance both to the scholarly community and to the bench and bar. The anticipated subject-matter coverage of the new Journal will include doctrinal subjects traditionally included within the broad domain of intellectual property (including patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secrecy issues), as well as both short- and long-form scholarship on entertainment, media and free expression, telecommunications, privacy, sports law, and computer and technology subjects.
The Journal will be published online and will take full advantage of the unique advantages of electronic publication. In keeping with the College’s customary practice, the Journal will initially be operated for a transitional period under the supervision of a faculty advisory committee. The members of the faculty advisory committee for the 2012-2013 academic year are Professors Timothy K. Armstrong (chair), Kenneth J. Hirsh, Elizabeth Lenhart, Michael E. Solimine, and Sandra F. Sperino.
The College of Law applauds the work of a committee of dedicated student leaders who worked tirelessly to bring the Journal into being. The Journal’s student organizers included:
Class of 2013
Class of 2014
In addition, the following students have also been selected to participate as Founding Members of the Journal commencing in the Fall 2012 semester:
Class of 2013
Class of 2014
The Journal will make a further announcement when it prepares to accept manuscript submissions, although it is not accepting submissions at the present time. Inquiries concerning the Journal should be addressed to the faculty advisory committee at timothy.armstrong@uc.edu.
