Environmental Law
I want to do environmental law (hereinafter EL). What schools are best for EL (e.g., programs dedicated to EL, job placement in EL related positions, etc). What are the best places to work in environmental law. Is it in private practice, the gov't, or non-profits? I want to do something in the realm of environmental justice. My stats are 3.7/ 167; African American; K-JD; strong letters of rec; nice, but not great, softs; first generation college student.

My plans are to fight for minority communities who are victims of pollution (blacks in the south), pesticides (farm workers), and toxic sites.slack_academic wrote:The best T14 for the market in which you hope to practice. If you want experience with regulatory policy, schools with access to D.C. Schools with clinical and externship opportunities which strike you as interesting or relevant to your plans.

Re: Environmental Law
You should have great opportunities. Maybe even Harvard or Stanford or Yale. They will open up the most doors for you in most fields. And good screen name/avatar. I pray that your cycle is the opposite of "Fuck Wit Dre Day (And Everybody's Celebrating)."
