Meet Jacob Cherry, a 1L at Haub Law whose path to legal education is anything but typical.

Originally from New Jersey, Jacob spent much of his youth traveling between New York and Los Angeles for acting. But when he started thinking differently about his future, it was his visit to Haub Law鈥檚 Accepted Students Day that sparked a new passion.
鈥淏ased on the energy and attitude of the faculty and students, I was immediately drawn to Haub Law,鈥 shared Jacob. 鈥淭he focus on camaraderie here really spoke to me鈥攊t set the school apart.鈥
Since starting law school, Jacob has fully embraced the Haub Law community. He joined SEALS (the Sports, Entertainment, and Arts Law Society) and was elected as a 1L representative. He regularly connects with classmates through study groups and even launched a Dungeons & Dragons campaign, creating a fun and collaborative space for students to unwind and bond outside of class.
Jacob has also found meaningful mentorship by taking advantage of office hours with his professors, who are always willing to discuss course materials or provide advice on his career goals. Those conversations, he says, have been instrumental in shaping his early experience at Haub Law.
Looking ahead, Jacob is interested in litigation and trial advocacy, and excited to be taking Entertainment Law next semester鈥攁ll skills that align with his previous experience as an actor and will provide a chance to blend his past and present in meaningful ways.
Jacob was recently about his journey from film sets to the halls of law school, written by another Haub Law student, 1L Flex student Tereza Shkurtaj.
