The Jamie Grodsky Prize for Environmental Law Scholarship

The Jamie Grodsky Prize for Environmental Law Scholarship, funded by a generous gift from her father, Dr. Gerold Grodsky, and memorial gifts from her friends, commemorates the life of Professor Jamie A. Grodsky who passed away in May 2010. The prize recognizes an original paper by a GW Law student in the environmental field as judged by a panel. The Grodsky Prize is presented in conjunction with the annual J.B. and Maurice C. Shapiro Environmental Law Conference.

The Grodsky Prize is a fitting tribute to a remarkable professor and cherished friend, well-known for her kindness, dedication, wisdom, and passion for environmental law.
