A MESSAGE FROM THE STUDENT BAR ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT

As the 2025-2026 Student Bar Association president, I have the honor of extending a few words of gratitude on behalf of my colleagues in the student community at USD School of Law for your continued support of our students. I have also been given the opportunity to tell you about how exactly your contributions support our students as we all move through this journey of Law School. Like many of my USD Law colleagues, I have received meaningful financial aid allowing me to focus on my studies without the need to worry about borrowing an unreasonable amount in loans or taking on extra work while in school to close any funding gap. Law school itself is stressful enough, and thanks to generous

SBA PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

scholarships provided by donors like you, students can go through this learning experience with as little financial stress as possible. Additionally, programs like the Public Service Law Student Fellowship Fund allow students who are interested in public interest careers, like me, to receive summer funding when they accept unpaid internships in the public sector, taking down the financial barriers preventing students from accepting unpaid work. Your generous aid funds and inspires the next generation of legal professionals, who will in turn continue to follow in your footsteps with continued generous commitment to the law school’s mission. Together, USD Law alumni are collectively impacting the future of the legal landscape.

On behalf of all the USD Law students that I represent, thank you for your generous support of our endeavors and for making law school an affordable and achievable goal for all of us.
