Environmental Law Workshop

Catalog description

This workshop will provide students with the opportunity to hear from faculty at other law schools who are at the cutting edge of research in environmental law and policy. This year, the workshop will focus on energy and climate research. Although it is open to all students, the seminar is designed especially for those with an interest in the field who wish to stay abreast of current issues, work, and ideas. Each class will involve a legal expert presenting a scholarly article that is a work-in-progress, giving the students an opportunity to comment on and shape the piece. This class will meet for six sessions on Tuesday afternoons from 4:15 to 5:45 during the winter quarter. It will be a 1-unit Mandatory Pass (MP) class. Elements used in grading include attendance and participation, preparation of written questions for the speakers, and short reflection papers.
