Lewis & Clark College
Lewis & Clark College, founded in 1867, has built a strong reputation for its environmental and international studies programs, and the college's wooded, hillside Portland campus, overlooking the city with views of Mount Hood on clear days, is frequently cited among the more scenic small liberal arts college settings in the Pacific Northwest. The college's law school, located on a separate nearby campus, has built a particularly strong national reputation specifically in environmental and natural resources law, drawing on Oregon's broader reputation for environmental policy leadership and giving Lewis & Clark a specialized legal education niche distinct from most peer law schools. Lewis & Clark's overseas study program, requiring or strongly encouraging significant international study abroad experience for undergraduates, reflects the college's institutional emphasis on global engagement, and a substantial majority of students complete at least one extended international study term before graduating. The college's combination of environmental studies strength, a specialized environmental law school, and its scenic Pacific Northwest campus has made Lewis & Clark a distinctive choice among students specifically drawn to environmentally focused liberal arts education in a setting that reflects those same institutional priorities.
VS
Willamette University
Willamette University, founded in 1842, is the oldest university in the western United States, chartered years before Oregon achieved statehood, and its Salem, Oregon campus sits directly adjacent to the Oregon State Capitol building, giving political science and government students unusually direct proximity to actual state government operations. The university's College of Law, one of the oldest law schools on the West Coast, and its Atkinson Graduate School of Management have each built solid regional reputations, and Willamette's small undergraduate college maintains close faculty engagement typical of traditional liberal arts colleges despite its broader university structure. Willamette's proximity to the Oregon State Capitol has historically supported a robust internship pipeline for students interested in state government and public policy, letting undergraduates gain direct legislative and policy experience during the academic year rather than only through summer internships elsewhere. The university's combination of genuine historical seniority as the oldest western university, direct physical proximity to state government, and a traditional liberal arts undergraduate core has made Willamette a distinctive choice for students specifically interested in law, government, or public policy careers.
