"My second week working at OJEN was fun. I like to create graphic designs so I decided to create posters for the SLI webinars. Also, I have learned about this amazing website called steps to justice where I learn what to do in different legal situations." #IsatuAtOJEN

"Going into my second week at OJEN was exciting! Probably the most interesting thing I got to work on was the top five cases of 2020 as an editor. It is an incredibly interesting resource for both law enthusiasts and students just getting into it." #AndrewAtOJEN
