Pace Now

The Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University has conferred the 2022 Elisabeth Haub Award for Environmental Law and Diplomacy on Professor Paulo de Bessa Antunes, an environmental scholar and leading professor of environmental law at Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, and head of the Environmental Practice of Campos Mello Advogados (Brazil).

At the age of 16, she moved to the United States for the opportunity to go to college and obtain a nursing degree. After earning an associate and bachelor’s degree in nursing, she knew that she still wanted to learn more. Following the recommendation from a friend and the convenience of New York City and Pleasantville, she decided to check out what Pace University and the Lienhard School of Nursing had to offer.

The Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University is proud to announce that Barbara Ballan has been named the inaugural LLM Sustainable Business Law Fellow of Haub Law’s newly launched Sustainable Business Law Hub. Additionally, Professor Jason Czarnezki was named as the inaugural Faculty Director of the Sustainable Business Law Hub.

Pace gets internships. At the New York Botanical Garden, Thomas Costella is exploring food justice through the Edible Academy and how the power of community can support food systems in New York City and beyond.

With Election Day fresh in our minds, President Krislov reflects on the ways in which Pace has joined the wider conversation of civic engagement—from hosting New York’s only gubernatorial debate, to on-campus efforts by the Pace Community to support their peers, to multiple wins at the Model UN National Conference, and more.

Lubin School of Business Professor Larry Chiagouris was featured speaking about Best Car Insurance in New York:

Why are car insurance prices so different from state to state?

There are important differences from state to state, including the incidence of accidents per mile driven by drivers and the costs of repairing vehicles. These differences account for some variation in insurance costs.

For more than a decade, Pace’s Model UN teams have been competing on the national stage. This year was no different! Back again with some more wins under their belts, Pace’s Model UN team shares their winning experience at this year’s national conference in Washington, DC.

At the Pace Environmental Law Review (PELR) Symposium held on October 28, PELR announced Haub Law 3L Christen Maccone as the winner of the John R. Nolon Student Writing Competition, held for the first time this year. Christen’s article entitled, Should Environmental Protection be Through Anthropocentric Rights?, addresses the issues with human-centered, instead of eco-centered, environmental rights, in keeping with the Symposium’s theme of “Environmental Constitutionalism.” Christen’s article will be published in the Pace Environmental Law Review next year.
