Some Blog Changes. (Posted by Gabe)

Hopefully each of you students received an e-mail from Jenny explaining a couple of changes about the blog. And I hope you are excited about the possibilities!

Heretofore, the blog has been written by the mentors, and open for content by students. But the goal of the blog is to provide you, the students, with a way of interacting with each other. So we'd like to open up the main page, and let YOU write articles to spark discussions. It'll give you a chance to hone your legal analysis and communication, and a chance to get to know each other better.

So write away! If you want to contribute, send your contributions to me at voxlucens@gmail.com. You can write long articles, or short articles, or even just send me stories you thought were applicable to your studies, with a paragraph of commentary.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Can Prison Food be Unconstitutionally Bad?
