Environmental & Land Use Faculty
The College of Law's faculty in Environmental and Land Use Law includes some of the nation's top scholars and instructors in the fields. Professor J.B. Ruhl is recognized as the nation's leading scholar on endangered species and ecosystem management, and is co-author of the nation's first law school text in those fields, The Law of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Management. Professor Donna Christie is co-author of the leading law school text on Oceans and Coastal Law, while Professor David Markell is co-author of an environmental law casebook and two other books including New York State Administrative Procedure and Practice, which received the 1995 ABA Section of Administrative Law and Regulatory Practice Award for Scholarship. Jim Rossi is co-author of Energy, Economics and the Environment (Foundation Press 2000). Also, Professor Mark Seidenfeld is widely considered among the country's top scholars in Administrative Law.
The College of Law has six full-time faculty who devote the majority of their teaching and scholarship to topics directly related to environmental, natural resources, and land use law and the related field of administrative law. In addition, its location in the state capitol of a major, growing state allows the College to enrich its curriculum with an array of courses taught by highly-qualified adjuncts.
