Who We Are
Peppercorn is the ANU Law Students Society’s (LSS) publication. We are a journal and magazine that acts as the forum for the expression of student life, art, voices, and scholarship. Peppercorn features art, articles, editorials, essays, and beyond. We accept submissions from all ANU students, staff members, and alumni. Peppercorn is for everyone!
We operate in line with the Terms of Reference of the Peppercorn Constitution (PepCon), and are provided for under the Admin Portfolio of the LSS in the LSS Constitution.
We are managed, created, printed and distributed on Ngunnawal and Ngambri land, and recognise the ongoing custodianship and connection to Country of all Indigenous Peoples. Peppercorn pays its respect to Elders past, present, and emerging.
What We Do
Peppercorn is committed to bringing thought-provoking and relevant content to all ANU law students and the ANU law community. We welcome comments and criticisms on all areas of law, as well as satirical, opinion, creative and visual contributions in areas outside of the law.
We publish ‘Peppercorn Magazine’ biannually and release content on our website on a rolling basis.
Website Design Rationale
Design Rationale: The central artwork of Peppercorn, titled In the Hopes of, draws inspiration from Retro-Futurism—an aesthetic fueled by the soaring optimism of the 1950s through the 70s, where the fear of technology was transmuted into hope and beauty. The piece serves as a visual critique of a future that never arrived. By grounding Peppercorn’s website in this theme, we aim to create a digital space for critiquing our current society—a society marked by the sentiment of unfulfilled dreams and collective disappointment.
We acknowledge the Ngunnawal and Ngambri Peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the beautiful lands upon which Peppercorn is created and distributed. I recognise the ongoing connection to Country of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People, and pay my respect to Elders, past and present. This was, and always will be, Aboriginal Land.
