In the first issue of the Bellarmine Law Society Review’s twelfth volume, three undergraduate contributors explore a range of topical issues through the lens of legal analysis. First, Rose Kiefer analyzes the impact of U.S. boardroom gender quotas in the workplace, incorporating facets of legal, economic, and social theory to examine the future efficacy of these policies. In our second article, Grace Mendes presents a thorough study of energy legislation and the energy market through a focused consideration of California’s history with renewable technologies, especially solar power. Finally, Christopher Siegert surveys the history of the Writ of Habeas Corpus and its relevance to the federal government’s past usage of the Suspension Clause. As always, many thanks are due to each of these accomplished and capable authors for their rigorous research and the insight that their articles provide on a diversity of legal issues.
