I am proud to announce that Pace Law School has been renamed the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University in honor of the late German philanthropist and environmental advocate, who has had a long partnership with our law school.  See Press Release, here.  Pace will become the first law school to be named after an environmentalist, and the second to be named after a woman (after the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law, Arizona State).  

The naming is particularly relevant for this blog’s readership because the Haub family has long supported environmental diplomats and “other negotiators who work to shape the environmental world order.” Stay tuned for curricular and scholarly initiatives in the burgeoning field of environmental dispute resolution.
