The Environmental Law Writing Seminar is designed for students who are keenly interested in environmental, land use, natural resources law or energy law, and want to contribute to legal scholarship. It offers an opportunity to produce papers dealing with important opinions and other developments in the field. There is also the possibility for inclusion in the Ecology Law Quarterly’s Annual Review of Environmental and Natural Resource Law or ELQ's online journal (at the journal's discretion). Students will work on crafting their papers in the fall and will work on editing and polishing them in the spring. For students who wish to submit their paper for possible publication in ELQ's Annual Review or online journal, topics must either be chosen from a list generated by ELQ and the Professor or approved by ELQ and the Professor. During the process, students will improve their writing and research skills while helping to shape the development of the law. Students must have previously taken or be concurrently enrolled in Environmental Law and Policy or Energy Law and Policy.
