Hamline Center for Justice and Law
The Hamline University Center for Justice and Law
The Center for Justice and Law works to advance justice by developing creative, concrete, and equitable solutions to legal issues and policy concerns. The center accomplishes our work by drawing on interdisciplinary synergies at Hamline to engage in: active collaboration with community partners, innovative teaching and professional development, transformative research opportunities, and public symposia bringing together local and national scholars, artists, activists, and practitioners. This year, our theme is Environmental Justice.
Watch a short explanation of the mission of the Center of Justice and Law from former Director Professor Jillian Peterson.
