Alex Domingue started thinking about attending law school while he was studying at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, where he earned an undergraduate degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Political Science.
“I chose LSU Law because of all of the great things I heard about the Law Center. Everyone I knew who attended LSU Law told me how competitive, but friendly, the environment was at the Law Center,” said Domingue, a Crowley, Louisiana native. “I knew that was something that I would enjoy being a part of.”
Now in his final year at LSU Law, Domingue has certainly enjoyed being an active part of all aspects of student life at the Paul M. Hebert Law Center. Along with serving as executive president of the Student Bar Association, he’s also a senior associate of Louisiana Law Review, an LSU Law Ambassador, a Board of Advocates member, and a member of the Public Interest Law Society student organization.
“The best part of student life at the Law Center is the engagement between the faculty/administration and the students,” he said.
Domingue likes to stay just as active outside the classroom as he does inside the Law Center.
“I am a very adventurous person who is always looking for the next exciting thing to do,” he said. “I have been skydiving twice and I am working on doing a solo jump within the next couple years. I also enjoy travelling.”
Following graduation in May, Domingue will join the Mouledoux, Bland, Legrand & Brackett defense firm in New Orleans. As he enjoys his final weeks at LSU Law with his classmates and prepares for his next adventure, Domingue said he will forever be grateful for the donors who fund the scholarships that have been vital to his success at LSU Law.
“As someone who is paying their own way through law school with student loans, this scholarship means a lot,” he said. “It is because of the generosity of alumni such as yourselves that I am able to succeed while at LSU Law, and I can never thank you enough for supporting me throughout this time.”
