The writing contest drew a sizable number of entries from law students representing five of Texas's seven law schools. The selection process was difficult among the many entries received, and the Section warmly thanks all law students who participated in the contest. We hope those law students who are continuing in law school will consider submitting new entries for our 2005 writing contest. Congratulations to all of the winners!
