“Decade at Duke” Campaign
Celebrate a decade of Judicature at Duke by helping us ensure its future!
As Judicature approaches its 10th anniversary at Duke, the Bolch Judicial Institute is launching a fundraising campaign to secure Judicature’s continued excellence as the nation’s only scholarly journal for judges. By giving to Judicature, you directly support the journal’s mission to strengthen judicial culture and improve justice through the exchange of ideas.
Our Goal
We aim to raise $250,000 by the start of the next fiscal year (July 2026):
- $100,000 from individuals through subscriptions and donations
- $150,000 from law firms and corporate sponsors (Click here to learn more about the benefits of sponsorships.)
It’s an ambitious goal — but one we’re ready to meet.
For the past decade, Judicature has grown at Duke thanks to the generosity of sponsors and subscribers, contributing authors, and the creativity and dedication of a small but mighty team of editors and production assistants. By consistently delivering thoughtful, timely, and relevant content, Judicature has expanded its content online but has remained in print despite challenges and rising costs across the publishing sector.
Now, the “Decade at Duke” campaign offers an opportunity to ensure that Judicature continues to serve as a trusted forum for ideas to improve the judiciary for readers in print and online. As a token of our appreciation, individuals who give $150 or more will receive a limited-edition Judicature pennant or a Bolch Judicial Institute canvas tote bag. You will also receive invitations to special events and access to commemorative features throughout the year.
