2009 Professor William R. Ginsberg Memorial Essay Contest

The 22nd Annual Professor William R. Ginsberg Memorial Essay Contest is sponsored annually by the Environmental Law Section of the New York State Bar ASsociation. First prize is $1,000. The first-place essay will be published in the New York Environmental Lawyer. The top three essay authors will be invited to the fall meeting of the Environmental Law Section, scheduled for September 2009 in the Finger Lakes Region of New York.

Essays on any topic in environmental law are acceptable, provided they are written by students currently enrolled in a New York State law school and were not prepared as part of paid work. (Course papers and law review submissinos are permitted). The maximum length is 35 double-spaced pages, including footnotes (which may be single spaced). No student may submit more than one entry per year, and substantially the same essay may not be entered in more than one year.
