For more than a decade, the Washburn Law Journal has partnered with the Washburn Law's Robert J. Dole Center for Law and Government to present an annual symposium.

Since 1978 the Wichita law firm of Foulston Siefkin has generously sponsored the Foulston Siefkin Lecture Series. This lecture series brings a prominent legal scholar to Washburn University School of Law to challenge and enhance the legal thinking of our students and faculty. The visiting scholar delivers a lecture and also provides an article for the next volume of the Washburn Law Journal.

The John D. Ensley Memorial Writing Award is presented semi-annually to the top memo writer in the Washburn Law Journal writing competition, honoring John D. Ensley, a 1983 graduate whose dedication to legal writing had a lasting impact on the profession. Established in 2000, the award commemorates Mr. Ensley’s distinguished career and contributions to commercial, government, real estate, securities, and educational law. As a partner at Goodell, Stratton, Edmonds and Palmer, and a member of various bar associations, Mr. Ensley’s legacy continues to inspire excellence in legal writing at Washburn Law.
