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.


Pacific McGeorge's Inter-American Program is an innovative educational initiative designed to graduate bilingual and intercultural lawyers who are competent to work with Latino clients in the U.S. or on Latin American matters. The program offers students the option to pursue a domestic or transnational track. Its summer program in Guatemala, co-sponsored by the University of Denver and Seattle University, is open to students from other law schools.

Wake Forest University School of Law

Wake Forest University School of Law has had a successful and well reputed Master of Laws (LL.M.) in American Law Program   for fourteen years.  The LL.M. program, like WFU law school, is small and selective by design.  WFU emphasizes close personal attention to the student, one-on-one interaction with professors, the daily opportunity to interact with American J.D. students, and geographic diversity in the LL.M. class.  To provide information prospective applicants, WFU created the WFU International Graduate Programs blog, which is mostly fueled by contributions from alumni on various topics.
Prospective applicants and students will find a unique look at WFU’s international programs that you would not find by just looking through their website.  Check out the blog for student perspectives on a variety of aspects ranging from applying to WFU and moving to Winston-Salem.   WFU’s goal is to provide applicants with a more realistic view of what it would be like to join their LL.M. program.

Choosing the John B. Turner LL.M. Program

By Ensieh Mohajeri, OU Law LL.M. student
As an international and Muslim student, I have felt very welcome at the University of Oklahoma College of Law since my first visit. I had no doubt I would choose OU College of Law among the other choices I had. I am very confident to say it was the best decision I could possibly have made.
Participating in John B. Turner LL.M. Program has given me the great opportunity to pursue my education in my dream field of study, Energy and Natural Resources Law. The LL.M. program provides an exceptional educational environment with the chance to communicate with outstanding professors who are all very knowledgeable in their respective areas and so willing to share their experience and assist students in any way possible.
In addition to having access to excellent educational quality, being able to attend different conferences and field trips related to my field of study has given me the opportunity to meet professionals in this field and further my understanding of the potential of my professional career in the future. I am very grateful to the law school and my professors who have supported and encouraged me to become involved in the program.
All in all, attending in John B. Turner LL.M. Program has been an invaluable part of my life and legal education. I am so pleased with my decision to come to the University of Oklahoma College of Law.
