W&M as a Monroe Scholar or UR as a Richmond Scholar

<p>Why wait for law school to start studying environmental law? UR allows undergrads to take courses in the law school (several of my friends did), and law profs often teach undergrad courses, including first year seminars. I don’t think the same can be said for W&M (or anywhere else, for that matter.) UR’s law school has a strong program in environmental law ([Environmental</a> Law Curriculum - School of Law - University of Richmond](<a href=“http://law.richmond.edu/academics/curriculum/acp-environmental.html]Environmental”>http://law.richmond.edu/academics/curriculum/acp-environmental.html)) that I’m sure you could tap into. Also, UR’s law school placement is extremely strong ([Law</a> School Placements - Pre-Law - University of Richmond School of Arts & Sciences](<a href=“http://prelaw.richmond.edu/placements/index.html]Law”>Law School Acceptances - Pre-Law - University of Richmond School of Arts & Sciences)). I have friends who are getting their JDs at Harvard, UVA, and Georgetown right now.</p>
