World Aquatic Animal Day Explored Sustainability Myths

April 3, 2022

The annual World Aquatic Animal Day raises awareness about the plight of aquatic animals to advocate for better policies, laws, education, and outreach to protect them.

Each year on April 3, students take the lead in raising global awareness about these often-forgotten nonhuman animals for this global event, which was launched at Lewis & Clark Law School for the first time in 2020. This year’s theme was Disentangling the Sustainability Myth in Fishing and Aquaculture.

From the Dean

Speaking with students is one of my favorite parts of being dean. At Lewis & Clark Law School, I’ve discovered a rare and powerful combination: students who pair fierce dedication to their mission with deep collaboration and a genuine commitment to each other’s success.

A Decade of Dedication:

Professor Lydia Pallas Loren’s Work on the Landmark Restatement of Copyright.

Legal Expertise Supports Migratory Species

Professors Chris Wold and Erica Lyman facilitated a workshop with CMS Parties to discuss the legal contours of some of the treaty’s most important provisions.

Beyond the Bar

Most graduates of law school go on to practice law, working in law firms or providing legal counsel to organizations and businesses. Yet, for some, the lessons of law apply more broadly, and the outcome of their law school education has been a surprising and successful career outside of law. Here are just a few of our alums who followed an alternative route.
