24 volumes and 35 EiCs later…
As Harry and I wrap up our tenure as co-Editors-in-Chief, I was inspired to look to the EiCs of years past and see where they’ve landed after all these years. Turns out, UV has range! Our EiC emeriti can be found all across Canada, in New York, and across the pond, covering everything from corporate to environmental law, artificial intelligence, peacekeeping, and beyond. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that almost all are still practicing law or working in law-adjacent fields—it looks like I might be able to get some use out of this JD after all.
Unless otherwise noted, our former EiCs are located in Ontario. This information was taken from publicly accessible sources (thanks, LinkedIn!) or included with permission and is current as of publication.
