Internship and study abroad opportunities:

After sorting through the year of mail the club received last year that went unopened, I have the following information avaliable for those interested. Most of this will pertain to 2L's and 3L's since I dont think Im allowed to be giving job and internship information to 1L's yet. Let me know via email or this blog comment what your name is if you want the info, and ill drop it in your mailbox:

1) ACLU Job Opportunities

Information from the ACLU Northern California District about paid summer internships, semester internships, and a two year fellowship for graduates.

2) Study Abroad Opportunities

Information from Southwestern Law School about their environmental law summer abroad program in Vancouver, Canada

3) LLM Information

Information from the University of Oregon School of Law on their environmental law LLM

4) State Bar of California Environmental Law Conference at Yosemite

SCHEDULE UPDATE:

Wednesday, October 4th: 7:00pm (IPJ Theatre)

Lecture: "Nuclear Power Is Not the Answer" by Dr. Helen Caldicott, physician and long time anti nuclear advocate. She will speak on her new book which makes the case that nuclear power is not an alternative source of enegery (aka not clean and green).

This is an exciting environmental event, and will be held at the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice at the West end of campus. I am hoping we can attend as a group, and can meet in front of the main entrance to the law school at 6:30pm. I will reserve a block of tickets for the club, but need an idea of who wishes to attend. Those who would like to attend, please leave a comment to this post indicating so. Hopefully we can get a good group to go.
