Don Smith, Director of the Sturm College of Law Environmental and Natural Resources Law Program (ENRL), encouraged all interested students to consider applying. "Over the past few years, DU has been honored to have several of our students awarded with RMMLF scholarships. For example, this fall two students -- Chelsey Russell, who is seeking her JD degree, and Bhagyast Nilange, who is seeking her LLM degree -- have won scholarships.
