<p>From an alum who went through the MELP program:</p>
<p>"I remain connected to VLS and am currently on the VLS observer delegation, which is preparing to go to Lima Peru for the climate conferences in December! ... Vermont Law is an inspiring community full of hard-working and passionate learners, much like Hampshire. For a graduate-level education in the environmental sector, Vermont Law is simply unmatched." -Catherine Craig 08F, VLS-MELP program, 2014</p>
