Stacey Blakeman

I am Stacey Blakeman, a second year law student from Overland Park, Kansas. I attended Iowa State University for undergrad and graduated in 2006. At ISU, I double majored in English Rhetorical Studies and Spanish with minors in Technical Communications and Entrepreneurial Studies. It was in my rhetoric classes that I first considered a future practicing law, and I am really happy with my decision to go to law school at KU.

It was immediately clear that KU Law was the right fit for me when I came to visit the school. Hearing student testimonies about their personal experiences and learning about opportunities for clerkships, clinics, and internships affirmed for me that KU was a place that I would thrive. I really appreciate the atmosphere at Green Hall; students and faculty are friendly and down-to-earth. Since my first year, I have participated in the Public Interest Law Society, International Law Society, and I volunteer with the Worker Justice Program, an organization in Kansas City. It is easy to find your niche at KU Law. Come visit and see for yourself!
