Welcome to the February 17, 2025 edition of the UW College of Law Admissions Newsletter!
Entering a new chapter in life can be a little intimidating. That includes going to law school! Your feelings in that regard are normal and recognized here at the University of Wyoming. We offer an incredible amount of support for incoming and current students to allow you to approach and continue through law school with confidence. New students are offered mentorship through connections with current students and faculty advisors. Continuing students find direction in relationships established through programming like Legal Liftoff, student organizations, networking events, and our student academic success office.
We will cover each of the resources in detail with you in the coming months. In this edition of the newsletter we are specifically highlighting the student mentorship program, which 1Ls can elect to begin participating in this summer, and Professor Danielle Cover, Director of Student Academic Success. Both are essential connections for you as an incoming UW College of Law student, and we are excited to start plugging you in to these great programs!
Mentorship During the 1L Year
In just a few short months you will each have the opportunity to be connected to a current UW law student who is excited to be in the role of a student ambassador. That person will be available to you for questions, candid advice, guidance, and friendship as you navigate the 1L year. This mentorship program has proven to provide new students with an extremely positive and productive beginning to their law school experience.
Toward the end of the spring term we will reach out to each of you to offer registration for this wonderful opportunity!
Student Academic Success
Professor Danielle Cover, UW College of Law Professor and Wyoming Excellence Chair, is available for a variety of academic support services for law students. She can assist incoming students in being prepared for the rigors and academic experiences of law school. This means establishing an understanding of the academic expectations and skills required to succeed. She is able to provide you with resources and advising to begin a path toward success.
Professor Cover will be available to you beginning this fall and looks forward to meeting with you!
Your College of Law Dean, Julie Hill
Dean Hill’s legal career began as a clerk in Cheyenne, Wyoming for Judge Wade Brorby on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit. She has been a member of the Wyoming State Bar for more than 20 years. In addition to her 11 years as a tenured faculty member at the University of Alabama, she was previously a faculty member at the University of Houston Law Center. In fall 2022, she taught banking law at UW.
She began her role with the UW College of Law June 2024, and we can’t wait for you to meet her at orientation!
Welcome to the March 3, 2025 edition of the UW College of Law Admissions Newsletter!
Students continuously report that student organizations are an important part of their law school experience. They not only provide an excellent way to expand knowledge and skills in an area of interest, but a place to find encouragement, support and networking opportunities. On-campus law student organizations vary in focus and areas of interest. We also have students who occasionally wish to start a new student org as well, and we have a process in the college to assist them in doing so. You, of course, do not have to become involved in campus organizations in law school, but they often have more to offer than students realize.
You will have the opportunity to visit with club representatives during the student org fair in the fall. Until then, you are welcome to browse through the brief descriptions of each opportunity online HERE.
John Burman Student Bar Association
The JBSBA provides student government and engages in academic and social activities to enhance the educational experience at the college. A major undertaking of the club is the sponsorship of a speakers’ program through which lawyers, judges, and legal scholars address students and faculty. On the national level, the club is affiliated with the Law Student Division of the American Bar Association. It also coordinates the activities of the other student organizations. Officers with JBSBA are president, first vice president, second vice president, treasurer, secretary, ABA representative, student-faculty representative, and public relations. Elections are held every November for terms that run for the following calendar year.
Meet your Senior Associate Dean
Professor Romero has been a dedicated member of the University of Wyoming faculty since 2003. He is known for his calm demeanor, his reliability and his sense of fairness. As senior associate dean, Romero advises and assists the dean in establishing and addressing strategic goals and priorities; prepares the college’s course schedule each semester; and manages ongoing tasks and initiatives, among other duties. He also teaches property law, real estate law, land use law and agricultural law. His scholarship focuses on rural legal issues and constitutional constraints on land use regulation. He has directed UW’s Rural Law Center since 2009. He is a graduate of Harvard Law School.
Welcome to the March 17, 2025 edition of the UW College of Law Admissions Newsletter!
One of the many benefits of attending UW Law is the ability to know all of the faculty and staff on a personal level. Our open door policies exist because we enjoy being available to students whether it’s to problem-solve or just share a few laughs. We want you to feel comfortable and welcome!
It’s our greatest pleasure as an admissions team to have the opportunity to meet and encourage the next class of legal professionals. We would not be working diligently in this field if we weren’t passionate about helping you through the application process and begin your law school journey on the right foot. The reason we named this newsletter the Compass is because we believe in providing you with all the tools needed in navigating your next steps in beginning one of the most important ventures you will ever take.
Meet the Team
Lisa Nunley is definitely a shining light in the UW College of Law. Her dedication to and pride in the university and the college specifically are nearly unmatched. She is responsible for admissions and advising associated to admissions, recruiting, scholarships, reporting to accrediting agencies, student services, and providing support to the Admissions Committee.
Next time you have the opportunity to speak with Lisa, be sure to congratulate her on wrapping up her 25th year with the College of Law.
Michell Anderson’s role in the college is to provide support for the Director of Admissions and the Director of Career Services. She appreciates being able to connect with students as they begin their legal journeys, and then assist with the aspects of career placement and professional development as students progress through law school.
SPECIAL NOTE:
AccessLex Law School Scholarship Databank: Search over 800 carefully curated and vetted scholarship opportunities and writing competitions – totaling more than $3 million in aid!
Welcome to the March 31, 2025 edition of the UW College of Law Admissions Newsletter!
We enjoy celebrating the many accomplishments of our students as they strive for excellence during their time with us in law school. With our perfect size, there are many doors open to current students where they can gain practical experience – an attribute from which many legal employers benefit when it’s time to hire our polished grads! What have our students been up to this academic year? We’re happy to give you a peek at some of their accomplishments.
In October 2024, UW College of Law students faced off in the Richard E. Day Client Counseling Competition. The winners were 1Ls Annie Addlesperger and Brayden Fox, with MaryAlice Buslett and Jennifer Solis (also 1Ls) as runners-up.
The competition provides an opportunity for law students to develop valuable skills in interacting with and proposing solutions for clients. Each team of two attorneys attempts to obtain the legally relevant information from the background factual context and then supplies the client with a preliminary summary of the client’s legal position and possible actions. The competition emphasizes communication and other interpersonal skills essential to sound representation of clients.
Alex Wendlandt, a third-year student at the College of Law, represented the State in a hearing before the Wyoming Oil & Gas Conservation Commission this past November. He also met Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon.
Alex’s representation was part of the College of Law’s Energy, Environmental, and Natural Resources Clinic. Students in the clinic partner with the Wyoming Attorney General’s Office.
Also in November, third-year law student Matthew Riekens (pictured third from right) appeared before the Wyoming Supreme Court arguing Robertson v. State.
The case was an appeal of a second-degree murder conviction. Matthew, who is the student director of the College of Law's Prosecution Assistance Program, was accompanied by his clinic team for the oral argument.
Professor Meredith Esser took her class to hear oral arguments at the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit in Denver. While there, they toured the historic building and talked with Judge Veronica Rossman and her law clerks about the path to clerkships. They also talked Judge Greg Phillips, a proud UW College of Law graduate, about appellate advocacy.
Shortly after assuming office in January, the newly elected officers of the John Burman Student Bar Association (JBSBA) met with University of Wyoming administrators.
2025 JBSBA Board
Secretary: Brayden J. Fox (1L)
Public Relations Rep: Gracie M. Barrett (1L)
Student-Faculty Rep: Chance J. Harper (2L)
ABA Rep: Sam Walker (1L)
First V.P.: Joey Griesinger (2L)
President: Connor B. Campbell (2L)
Treasurer: Skylar Cell (1L)
Second V.P.: McKenna Kail (1L)
When courts look for legal expertise, they turn to the College of Law’s Wyoming Law Review more often than most other law reviews.
Adam Feldman, an expert in legal data and analytics, recently prepared a chart showing law review citations in cases between 2019 and 2023. The Wyoming Law review sits in eighth place nationally, alongside the law reviews at Harvard, Yale, and Stanford.
Of course, we already knew that the Wyoming Law Review frequently turns up in court opinions. Just last June, the United States Supreme Court cited the Wyoming Law Review in its U.S. v. Rahimi opinion.
We are proud of all of our law review editors, past and present.
In February the Natural Resources and Environmental Moot Court team of Streeter Boatright (2L), Emily Wangen (2L), and Sam Johnson (3L) traveled to the Elizabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University to compete in the national competition.
Their performance earned them a spot in the semi-final round! This success highlights the University of Wyoming’s expertise in natural resources and environmental law. Two team members are pursing master’s degrees in natural resources and environmental law in addition to their JD degrees.
And while at Pace, our team saw UW graduates Joe Budd and Daniel Dorough, who are earning LLM degrees in environmental law.
The team is coached by Professor Temple Stoellinger.
Your UW College of Law
The spring issue of preLaw magazine placed the University of Wyoming College of Law 9th on the list for Best Schools for Practical Training and a Top Environmental Law School! These are in addition to Top School for Human Rights, Best Value Law School and Top School for Family Law honors already received.
These highlight not only our commitment to offering exceptional instruction at a price that enables our students to graduate with considerably less debt than at most other schools, but also our interactive approach to legal education where students utilize valuable classroom skills and doctrine to excel in experiential development.
Welcome to the April 14, 2025 edition of the UW College of Law Admissions Newsletter!
In this edition of the Compass, we introduce you to our Career Services Director, Kristin Lanouette, and the vast amount of resources we offer through our Office of Career Services and Professional Development. Kristin will be available to meet with you to develop job search strategies and planning, provide resume and cover letter review, and develop skills through mock interviews.
The office posts job opportunities and career services related events to a databank, named POKES, on a daily basis. This online resource also houses an extremely robust resource library that guides users through various topic areas:
- Application materials
- Networking and informational interviews
- Career fair documents
- Outside job search subscriptions
- Practice area information
- Out of state job search resources
- Clerkships
- Judge Advocate General Corps (JAG) guidance
- Externship information
- Interview skills
- Offer negotiation tips
- And more!
Students are provided monthly career services newsletters with timely announcements, how-to guides, articles, and recent job postings relevant to their law school class. On-campus interviews (OCI) are held twice a year, September and February, where the college hosts employers who wish to interview current students for summer or permanent placement positions. 1L students are invited to begin participating in OCI starting with the February session of their first academic year. In addition, there are several guest speakers and networking events throughout the year to allow students the opportunity to further connect with legal professionals.
First Steps: Information about transitioning your current resume into a format appropriate for legal positions and gaining access to POKES will be relayed to you in the coming months!
In a world with ever increasing amounts of spam, how do you seek and trust resources for scholarships that are provided outside the university? We have your answer!
If you haven’t already, we encourage you to utilize the free AccessLex Scholarship Databank. It offers a powerful amount of filters for your searching needs within the 800+ carefully curated and vetted scholarship opportunities and writing competitions, which total more than $3 million in aid. And, let us clarify, all of these scholarships are specifically being offered to new or current law students – there is no other audience outside of legal studies.

Textbooks
The College of Law hosts the PLC Bookstore where students can fulfill all their textbook needs. You are welcome to purchase your books elsewhere, but there are wonderful benefits to utilizing this student-ran resource. All textbooks are priced competitively (comparable to Amazon), with free returns, and proceeds are utilized for College of Law student events and guest speakers. Students can also request payments be held until financial aid is applied, and begin utilizing their textbooks in the interim. As a bonus, there is a reoccurring discount associated with all book orders for 2Ls (10% off) and 3Ls (15% off)!
You will receive fall 2025 course registration information mid-June via email, along with instructions on how to order your textbooks through the PLC Bookstore. The process is simple and your Bookstore student reps will look forward to working with you! Rest assured, through your PLC Bookstore order you do not have to worry about getting the wrong book. If a professor decides to change their chosen textbook, the Bookstore will fix the order for you!
Welcome to the May 12, 2025 edition of the UW College of Law Admissions Newsletter!
With fall 2025 class registration approaching in a few weeks, we’re providing the following information as the next steps in preparing for your law school journey.
Proof of MMR Immunization (REQUIRED BEFORE CLASS REGISTRATION)
All students must prove their immunity to measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) prior to class registration. This policy affects students of the University of Wyoming born after December 31, 1956 who will be taking on-campus classes. We prioritize the health and safety of our students, faculty and staff, necessitating proof of vaccination to prevent the spread of these highly contagious diseases, supporting a healthier campus for all.
- Obtain Your MMR Records
Records should be signed by a healthcare representative and dated on or after the date of the second MMR immunization. Official forms that will verify immunization include:
-Statement or photocopy of records from a doctor’s office or clinic.
-State or international immunization record (must be translated to English).
-Primary or secondary school records of immunizations.
-Immunization record from another college or university.
-Military records.
-Previous employer records.
-Documentation of blood tests/titers showing immunity.
- Submit MMR Records
Using your UW username and password, log in to the Patient Portal and enter your MMR dates or titer results under the “Immunizations” tab.
-Enter other immunizations and dates under the recommended section.
-Hit the Submit key when you have entered all your immunization information.
-Upload the documentation of your immunizations using the “Upload” tab.
If you would like to order your fall textbooks (Civil Procedure will be updated soon) through the UW College of Law PLC Bookstore, all they need is your name! Send an email by June 30th at midnight to plcbooks@uwyo.edu and they’ll take care of the rest. They will receive a master list of 1L enrollment and will ensure you have the right books. However, if you only require certain books, please list what classes and which books.
As a reminder, there are several perks when ordering your books through the PLC Bookstore:
- They do the leg work of placing the order.
- You do not have to pay until financial aid comes in (you still pick your books up before classes, but don’t have to pay immediately).
- Enjoy a loyalty-based discount, dependent on the number of prior semesters you’ve ordered.
- Prices are comparable to Amazon.
- Free returns.
- You don’t have to worry about getting the wrong book. If a professor decides to changes their chosen textbook, the PLC Bookstore staff will fix the order for you!
Textbook pickup will be during the week before classes begin. More information will be emailed to you as we get closer to the semester’s start.
Lease cycles in Laramie have been opening up as graduates leave town. We hope you are having good luck with your search! Facebook, The Laramie Boomerang classifieds, and real estate websites (i.e. Zillow, Realtor.com, Trulia) are your best bet in finding just what you’re looking for. UW apartments are also an option!
Anyone looking for a roommate/co-renter(s) – please email Lisa Nunley directly with the rental information (amount for rent and/or utilities, number of renters wanted, pets/no pets, etc.) and include your preferred contact method.
Official Transcripts (REQUIRED)
Per the American Bar Association (ABA), which is our accrediting body, the University of Wyoming College of Law requires each entering student to submit an official transcript prior to October 15th. You will be administratively withdrawn from classes if your official transcript is not received by that date. We must house official transcripts with your permanent file – the copies provided to us from LSAC do not meet the ABA requirement. We only need the transcripts showing your bachelor’s degree being awarded. Please have your undergraduate institution submit an official copy to the UW College of Law via USPS or through email (lisa.nunley@uwyo.edu or manders2@uwyo.edu). *Please do NOT send them to the main campus Registrar. The College of Law needs to track this info.*
NOTE: If you are a University of Wyoming graduate, you do not need to provide official transcripts as we have access to those.
We recommend not waiting until orientation to get your student ID card. You’ll want to visit the WyoOne ID Office when you are able. You will utilize your ID card in multiple ways during your time as a student, one of which is to gain access to the college and the library during evening and weekend hours.
NOTE: If you are a UW graduate, your Student ID, email and W number should all be the same as undergrad.
Parking is limited at the Law School to an Orange 202 permit. Red permit parking is close by, but not allowed in the Orange 202 lots by the college. However, with the Orange 202 permit, you would be allowed to park in Red parking, without needing to purchase a separate permit. We know, it’s confusing… this chart can be helpful. Purchase information is available online, and will be open to students at the beginning of August.
NOTES: There is free parking available most days in the lot adjacent to War Memorial Stadium, which provides a 10 minute walk to the College of Law. The lot is closed on the Fridays before home football games, and other occasional dates as needed. There is currently construction on the stadium that blocks the walking path from the lot to the law school, but we’re hopeful that will open back up before the start of school in the fall.
The campus shuttle system might also be an option for you.
Welcome to the May 27, 2025 edition of the UW College of Law Admissions Newsletter!
The College of Law Advisory Board Members are excited you are joining the Class of 2028! Watch your email for a welcome message from them soon!
Mentorship during law school can provide critical sources of advice and feedback while also imparting essential professionalism skills. Every law student faces different challenges, which is why you will always be encouraged to vocalize any questions or concerns you may have along the way. Your mentors can help guide your professional journey, so it will be valuable for you to be introspective, open and honest about what you want out of your law school journey and your career.
There will be numerous opportunities to develop relationships with various mentors throughout the next few years. The first of which is involvement in our 1L Mentorship Program, pairing you with a College of Law 2L or 3L ambassador. You should have already received an email inviting your participation in the program. After you are matched with a mentor, we encourage you to reach out and connect with them this summer, and begin building that trusted relationship.
The mentee application should be completed and emailed to Lisa.Nunley@uwyo.edu at your earliest convenience.
Beyond the Mentorship Program, we hope you’ll take advantage of the following opportunities as well!
First-year students will be assigned a faculty advisor at the beginning of the fall term. Your advisor will focus on academic expectations, professionalism, curricular and career advice, or simply answering questions about law school.
During the following two years, you can continue to connect with 1L professors, and develop relationships with new professors as well. In addition, students may seek advice from the Associate Deans or our Director of Career Services. The College of Law Registrar is also available by appointment for degree evaluations to ensure all degree requirements are being met.
Note: The law school also has a Pathways to Practice webpage that provides a comprehensive online guide for students.
In broad terms academic support means rendering students the academic assistance that will be most meaningful. The nuts and bolts of academic support include instruction on efficient reading, case briefing, note taking and outlining. It also involves assessing your best time to study, how to maintain focus in class, how to better manage your time, and more.
Unlike the undergraduate experience, it will almost never be possible to “crunch” for exams at the last minute. Ideally, you should be assessing your study methods continuously and should begin to seriously address any problems you feel you are encountering no later than mid-semester.
Danielle Cover, a UW College of Law Professor and the Associate Dean of Academic Support, is available for a variety of academic support services for law students. She can assist incoming students in being prepared for the rigors and academic experiences of law school. This means establishing an understanding of the academic expectations and skills required to succeed. She is able to provide you with resources and advising to begin a path toward success.
Associate Dean Cover will be available to you beginning this fall and looks forward to meeting you at orientation!
Welcome to the June 30, 2025 edition of the UW College of Law Admissions Newsletter!
We are excited to have you join our amazing town and community – Laradise! We want to be sure every aspect of your transition to law school is successful, which includes adjusting to life at 7,220 feet. With thinner air comes a host of physical adjustments, but you can take steps to avoid complications.
- You’ll want to ease into exercising, to ensure you don’t overexert yourself too quickly.
- For every one thousand feet of elevation gain, there is anywhere from an 8 to 10 percent increase in sun exposure. Don’t forget the sunscreen and reapply liberally. Sunglasses and a hat are often a must as well.
- The air at higher elevations is much dryer – go for the king-sized bottle of lotion. You won’t regret the purchase.
- A lower air pressure also lends itself to dehydration. Carry a water bottle with you and consider limiting caffeine and alcohol as they act as a diuretic.
As an Arbor Day Foundation appointed Tree City, Laramie has an incredible amount of beauty, outdoor recreation possibilities, and a vibrant cultural scene. The surrounding area also provides an abundance of incredible vistas and adventure for the enthusiast. We encourage you to enjoy the plethora of activities and sights!
College of Law Staff

Now is a great time to highlight the rest of the team – they all look forward to meeting you at orientation!

“Thank you! I felt so much more prepared for my first week of law school than a lot of my peers. Law school starts with a heavy workload and doesn't leave any time for anyone to catch up, so thinking about how I would organize myself and what I was trying to do when reading a case REALLY helped. I would (and have) recommended this course to students that want to prepare themselves well.”
