The Ohio State Bar Association Section on Labor and Employment Law is pleased to announce the 2018 Student Writing Competition.

The Competition was created to encourage relevant and innovative scholarly works in the area of Labor and Employment, and to attract Ohio law students to the labor and employment law practice fields. A judging committee comprised of distinguished practicing attorneys and faculty members at Ohio ABA-accredited law schools will review the submissions and award first, second, and third-place cash prizes to the winning student-authors.

The cash prizes for such competition has been established as follows:

First Place: $3,000; Second Place: $2,000; and Third Place: $1,000.

Funding for the Competition is sponsored by the Ohio State Bar Association Section on Labor and Employment Law—an energized community of over 1,300 lawyers representing employees, labor unions, and employers in Ohio.

Please share this opportunity with students who may be interested in participating. All students at ABA-accredited law schools in Ohio are invited to submit entries, pursuant to the rules of the Competition detailed at the website linked below.

Entries are being accepted until March 30, 2019.  You can find more information and the link to apply at: https://www.ohiobar.org/about-us/awards-scholarships/student-writing-competition/
