Have you heard the news? Abigail Dillen will take the stage on May 16 to deliver this yearā€™s Commencement address.

As the president of Earthjustice and Earthjustice Action, Dillen leads more than 650 staff in using the power of law to protect the environment and peopleā€™s health. Her journey is an inspiration for the kind of work many of our graduates will carry forward.

Other honored guests will include Jay Blumenkopf JDā€™76, a member of the schoolā€™s charter class, and Professor David Firestoneā€”both part of the early days of Vermont Law School.

We look forward to celebrating VLGSā€™s Class of 2026 and this milestone 50th year!

New month, new artā€”just in time for our 50th commencement!

These vibrant oil and watercolor paintings by Vermont artist Woody Jackson are the latest exhibition in our Dean Shirley A. Jefferson Art Gallery.

You may know Woody for his iconic black-and-white cows (yes, those ones youā€™ve seen on Ben & Jerry's pints šŸ„).

Specially for VLGSā€™s 50th anniversary, Woody created his newest herd member, ā€˜Juris Moodence,ā€™ dressed in full regalia.

šŸ–¼ļø Our gallery is open weekdays 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET for community members to enjoy.
