Meet the students of the 2016-2017 Earthrise Class. They are already hard at work on cases involving a methanol pipeline, a timber sale in central Oregon and several water quality cases.
Five of these students worked at the Earthrise Law Center over the summer as part of our Tomorrow’s Advocates program so they had a good head start on the work they’ll be doing over the course of the academic year.
Earthrise Law Center is located in Wood Hall on the Law Campus. MSC: 51
Earthrise Law Center is now accepting applications from current law students who will have completed their 1L year by April 2025—or anyone who has already completed more than 32 credits of course work—for its summer 2025 clerkship program.
Earthrise is looking for a smart, enthusiastic, hard-working person with a positive attitude and a desire to have a career in the public interest environmental legal field.
In 2024, Earthrise attorneys achieved significant milestones in advancing the clinic’s dual mission: safeguarding the environment and equipping the next generation of legal advocates with hands-on experience. As Earthrise approaches its 30th anniversary, we invite you to join us in supporting this essential work in a critical time for environmental protection.
