- My name is Adam Vander Stoep
and I am from Doon, Iowa.
Upon graduating from law school,
I will be working in the Bronx
as a Bronx County District Attorney.
The Iowa nice-idea definitely does exist
in law-school and Iowa City.
I was born and raised in
Iowa, in northwest Iowa.
It's no different than central Iowa
when it comes to the
quality of the individuals
that are in this state.
And first and foremost
Iowa Law teaches you
how to think like a lawyer,
how to reason like a lawyer.
It just teaches you the skills you need
to be able to go into a
practice on your first day
and just start.
I think Iowa does a great
job of preparing you
to be able to go to any
state and practice state law.
It was such an amazing experience
to be at the University
of Iowa College of Law
and I could not of ever
imagined anything better,
and I would never do anything different
if I had the opportunity to do it again.
Hawkeye means Iowa, that's home,
and I will always be a
Hawkeye, even in New York City.
