Chicago-Kent's Environmental Law Society (ELS) is a student organization focused on enhancing our school's profile as one of the nation's top-rated environmental law schools. We do this by:

• Heightening awareness of environmental law and its connection with other bodies of law and disciplines;
• Promoting sustainability within our law school;
• Raising student eco-consciousness and encouraging personal sustainability throughout the student body;
• Supporting students financially in their quest to serve the environment; and
• Contributing to the enhancement of the environmental law curriculum.

We pursue this mission in a number of ways, including speaker panels, environmental summits, internal initiatives, fundraising and social events. We are also a member of the National Association of Environmental Law Societies (NAELS), which enables us to partner with other law schools nationwide.
