For Alex Meecham ’27, her Scripps experience has been about more than academics. It has given her the space to explore her identity, build meaningful relationships, study abroad in Barcelona, and connect classroom learning with her growing commitment to public-interest work. Through Spanish and Politics, community engagement, Mock Trial, and her work with the Motley, Alex has developed a clearer vision for a future in public-interest law.
