Janiel Myers has been chosen to fill the highest position at the Emory Law Journal (ELJ). The journal, which was founded in 1952 was the first sponsored by Emory University’s School of Law, and now Ms. Myers will be the first black editor-in-chief at the ELJ. The publication, which is the oldest at the university, prints academic, professional and student-authored writings on a wide range of legal topics. Myers, who was born in Jamaica and recently became a naturalized citizen of the United States, will work as an associate-at-law for the law firm Weil, Gotshal & Manges during the summer of 2017. She then intends to focus on bankruptcy law, hoping to become a professor and mentor later on in her career.
