Graduate Profile
Anna Stanley
Graduation: 2002
Major: Philosophy and Political Science
Anna Stanley is able to view her cases as an attorney from a variety of angles thanks to her double major in philosophy and political science.
“Philosophy taught me to think, to ‘unlock’ thoughts and communicate them effectively, which is very important in the legal profession,” the 2002 graduate says. “Political science gave me a basis for different areas of the philosophy of law. Studying politics, particularly group politics like women’s studies, gave me a lot of theories with which to evaluate case law.”
