On Law, online: New student-run blog tackles legal
issues of the day
by Pascal Zamprelli
When one thinks of blogs, the word “academic” rarely comes to
mind. Scholarly journals, for their part, don’t exactly scream
“widely accessible.” A new variety of online publication, the
academic blog, attempts to bridge the gap between the ivory tower
and the expanding online community, and is gaining in
popularity.
A group of students at McGill’s Faculty of Law have recently
launched such an endeavor: Legal Frontiers is a student-driven blog
that deals with issues of international law and is aimed at a broad
and varied audience.
