Weber Teaches Environment Law In Guatemala

Professor Greg Weber taught a course, "Introduction to the U.S. Legal System: An Environmental Law Focus," from Feb. 6 through Feb. 10, in Guatemala City, Guatemala.
"We had approximately 30 students in the course, private attorneys and government counsel, and the materials were very well-received," Weber said.
The program is part of Pacific McGeorge's Inter-American Environmental Law Series, which is being conducted in partnership with CAFTA's Secretariat for Environmental Matters in Guatemala. The secretariat is an international organization created within the framework of the Dominican Republic-Central America-United State Free Trade Agreement to oversee compliance with its environmental commitments under the treaty.
