PPP&L is an inter-disciplinary law journal that is published quarterly by the American Psychological Association. As the name suggests, the review primarily addresses issues of psychology, public policy, and the law. PPP&L is somewhat different from the other law reviews on campus in that we do not publish our journal. Instead, the American Psychological Association publishes it. It has the largest circulation of any of the publications at our law school. In addition, our duties mostly include the editing of articles that are submitted to PPP&L from various professors, lawyers, psychologists, and other professionals from across the country. The articles we edit are in either APA or Bluebook citation format, at the author's discretion.

Every Spring semester, PPP&L, along with other University of Miami organizations, sponsors a symposium on a particular issue facing psychology and law. On February 22, 2008, PPP&L, together with the University of Miami Ethics Programs, will be sponsoring a symposium titled The Abuse of Adderall and "Academic Steroids" in Law School: Clinical and Ethical Perspectives.
