These four rigorously-edited articles showed innovation, passion, and energy from our incredible writers. Through their powerful insight and perspectives, the articles showcase possibilities for the future development of the legal arena. The issue is written, edited, and collected by Brandeis University undergraduates. The articles cover topics from an examination from intellectual property rights for artificial intelligence to an investigation of the Supreme Court justices. An extra special addition this semester is a book review on disability treatment and the morality of law by our insightful faculty advisor Professor Daniel Breen. As previously, the Brandeis University Law Journal is accessible both in print and on our website at https://brandeislawjournal.wordpress.com through an e-publication. I would like to thank our incredible leadership team, writers, and editors. Their dedication, passion, and creativity are evident throughout this issue and provide the foundation for publication. We would like to give great appreciation to the Allocations Board on Student Union for providing us the necessary funding to print this issue. Inspired as ever by Judah Marans’ foundational example, we continue to grow the journal’s success. We look forward to our continued work supported by two phenomenal advisors, Professors Kabrhel and Breen. We really appreciate all of their insight, advice, and support.
