First year guide

As the title suggests, the first-year law guide is perhaps a necessity for those beginning their law studies. It contains tips and advice for students, as well as an introduction to the legal career.

McPherson's papers

Every year, the LSS holds an essay competition inviting students to submit their high-graded work. The winning entries are then selected to be published in the McPherson’s Papers, the society’s law journal. The McPherson’s Papers is a greatly anticipated publication which recognises and celebrates the hard work and academic talent of RMIT law students.
