Park* Although I just missed the five-year anniversary, I am honored to be given this opportunity to reflect on how the online companion to the Mississippi Law Journal came to be, how it has grown, and its role as a vehicle for legal scholarship. The online companion to the Mississippi Law Journal was founded by Editor-in-Chief Steve Woodliff during the 2009-2010 school year. Steve needed someone to run the new program. Most of the journal members preferred to play it safe and became Executive Articles Editors or something of that ilk. But I was naive enough to agree to Steve's request, probably because he was one of my best friends in law school and I didn't have the heart to tell him no. I was given the title of Electronic Journal Editor and became affectionately known as the Architect. I was given that nickname because there was no blueprint for what we were trying to do. We could try copying what the other online journals were doing, but most of them were major law journals with major clout. We would need to work a little harder to create a name for ourselves. The online journal was originally called MISSing Sources and has undergone a number of name changes. The first year of the online journal became part of Volume 79. I was assisted by 3L's Bette Killebrew Bradley, William J. Dukes, and Stephen P. Smith along with countless hours of editing by 2L's Patrick Timony and Jaklyn Wrigley. The online journal would have never gotten off the ground without their hard work. * Senior associate with Mozley, Finlayson & Loggins LLP in Atlanta, Georgia, practicing insurance defense, aviation, and subrogation. J.D., University of Mississippi School of Law; B.A., University of Georgia. The author served as the original editor of the MLJ online journal in 2009-2010 and has appeared in Mississippi as pro hac vice counsel. He may be contacted at apark@mfllaw.com. 1
