It was a GOOD week for studying how to make the illegal legal, after the University of Denver Sturm College of Law proudly announced a donation that would allow for a professorship to study marijuana law and policy.

Sam Kamin will be the inaugural professor, studying the development of “intelligent” marijuana law and policy. It is believed to be the first such chair in the nation.

“Our state and our school are poised to take a leadership position in this important new area of law and policy,” said Dean Martin Katz. “The rest of the country is watching. We need to do this right.” 

A marijuana law firm, Vicente Sederberg, provided the $45,000 in funding.

Brian Vicente, the firm’s founding partner, is a graduate of Sturm College of Law.

“As the marijuana industry expands in Colorado and around the nation and the world, there is a growing need for attorneys qualified to represent business owners,” said Vicente. “With the launch of this professorship, Sturm College of Law will be taking the lead in providing law students the training they need to enter this new field. We are proud to be able to support their efforts in this area.”
