Colloquium on Environmental Scholarship

Fourth Annual Colloquium on Environmental Scholarship
at Vermont Law School

OCTOBER 11, 2013


CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

Vermont Law School will host the Fourth Annual Colloquium on Environmental Scholarship on October 11, 2013. The Colloquium offers the opportunity for environmental law scholars to present their works-in-progress and recent scholarship, to get feedback from their colleagues, and to meet and interact with those who are also teaching and researching in the environmental and natural resources law area.

If you are interested in presenting a paper at the Colloquium, please submit a working title and short abstract, using our online form, no later than June 1, 2013. For an abstract to be eligible for submission, the author must anticipate that the paper will still be at a revisable stage (neither published nor so close to publication that significant changes are not feasible) by the date of the Colloquium. We will do our best to include all interested presenters, and will notify authors about acceptances no later than July 2013.

All selected participants will be required to submit a paper draft no later than October 1, 2013, and all participants will be asked to provide commentary on another participant’s paper draft at the Colloquium. Final papers will also be eligible for publication in the Vermont Journal of Environmental Law. The Colloquium will take place on Friday, October 11, 2013. Vermont Law School’s Environmental Law Center and its faculty will host a cocktail reception, in Montpelier on Thursday evening, and dinner on Friday evening, at Vermont Law School. Further Colloquium details regarding schedule, events, lodging, and transportation will be forthcoming, and will be posted here as available. For more information on the Colloquium, or if you need assistance uploading your paper, please contact Marie Richard-Mauldin at ces@vermontlaw.edu or by phone: 1-802-831-1342.
