40th Anniversary of Vermont Law School’s Environmental Law Center

Today, Vermont Law School celebrated the 40th anniversary of the law school’s Environmental Law Center. Past directors (David Mears, Melissa Scanlan, John Echeverria, Marc Mihali, Karin Sheldon, Pat Parenteau, and Dick Brooks) were on hand to provide a nostalgic review of the Center’s history and accomplishments. The event was followed with a presentation of a set of Festschrift contribution for the Center’s founding Director, Richard Brooks, and his scholarly work. It was a touching tribute to the person who started it all.
