Adam Holland

Resume:

Adam is a research assistant with the Cooperation Research Group at the Berkman Center. Additionally, he is the research assistant for the Center's Freedom to Teach. [1]
A 2L at the Boston University School of Law, he was drawn to law school because of his interest in copyright issues and creator's rights, especially in the digital age, but also because of a desire to somehow become part of creating a sustainable society, a la Kim Stanley Robinson's "plausible utopias".
Prior to deciding to attend law school, he trained full time for the U.S. Olympic rowing team for ten years, winning two medals at World Championships, and earning a spot on the 1996 Olympic team. He then taught school for a year, and currently coaches wrestling and crew at the Buckingham, Browne, & Nichols School in Cambridge, MA.
His jurisprudential role-model is Batman, depending on who is writing him.
