Shannon Mulholland
“Shannon applied on the basis of her stated interest in working for local government upon receiving her JD degree,” noted Professor John Greabe, director of the Rudman Center. “Her interest in local government is not merely stated; it also is demonstrated. Prior to attending law school, Shannon worked for the New Hampshire towns of Derry, Londonderry, and Allenstown. She intends to study the positive fiscal impact that local governments would experience if they were more mindful of sustainability in their operation and administration of local law.”
As part of her fellowship, Shannon will also help to organize a Rudman Center event organized around her areas of interest.
“We deeply appreciate the Peterson Foundation’s support,” said Professor Greabe. The Foundation’s generosity makes possible this wonderful opportunity for Shannon.”
The Rudman-Peterson Fellowship is awarded each spring to a 1L who is interested in fiscal policy. This fellowship pays full tuition for its recipient’s 2L and 3L years, as well as $4,000 stipends for placements in summer positions involving budgetary and fiscal work.

Shannon was chosen by a Rudman-Peterson selection committee that included Professor Greabe; Chase Hagaman, the Concord Coalition’s director of Strategic Initiatives; Professor Lucy Hodder, director of the Health Law and Policy Programs for UNH’s College of Health and Human Services, Institute for Health Policy and Practice; and Lisa Gilson Clancy, Rudman Center coordinator.
The Warren B. Rudman Center for Justice, Leadership & Public Service at the UNH Franklin Pierce School of Law provides financial, curricular, and experiential support for law students who are interested in public service and public interest lawyering. We also offer events for the community that align with our mission. Please link here for more information about the Warren B. Rudman Center.
