On Friday, March 28,\u00a0UND School of Law<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0students, faculty and alumni convened in the VanderWalle Courtroom to celebrate one of their most inspiring alumnae. Hosted by the\u00a0Law Women\u2019s Caucus<\/a><\/strong>, the 20th annual Helen Hamilton Day event celebrated trailblazing women past and present, and brought together generations of women in law.<\/p>\n

Helen Hamilton was the first woman to graduate from the UND School of Law, the first woman admitted to the North Dakota Bar and\u00a0the first woman to apply for membership in the American Bar Association<\/a><\/strong>. Each year, the LWC hosts a symposium in her honor, inviting women in law and related fields to discuss their experiences.<\/p>\n

This year marks the 120th anniversary of Hamilton\u2019s graduation from the School of Law.<\/p>\n

For the 2025 event, \u201cExpanding the Circle,\u201d the focus was on the evolving role of women in law, including how their advancement continues to open doors for others in law, business, government and beyond.<\/p>\n

\u201cHelen Hamilton was the only woman in her class when she graduated in 1905. Today, my class is over 50% women,\u201d said Lily Burnside, a second-year law student who is coordinating this year\u2019s event. \u201cWe wanted to honor that progress and also recognize how women have paved the way for other groups in the legal field.\u201d<\/p>\n

Burnside, who joined LWC in 2023 and led the planning for this year\u2019s symposium, said Hamilton\u2019s legacy makes the event especially meaningful.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis event has been happening for over 20 years. There\u2019s pressure to make sure each one is better than the last \u2014 but also to keep it reflective of how far we\u2019ve come,\u201d she said. \u201cThe whole entire board for LWC pitches in, and we try to bring in speakers and panelists who will honor the legacy of Helen Hamilton as a trailblazer.\u201d<\/p>\n

A look inside the boardroom, from the women who run it<\/h2>\n

The day\u2019s final panel, \u201cExpanding the Circle in the Boardroom,\u201d explored how legal professionals \u2014 particularly women \u2014 are leveraging their law degrees to become leaders in corporate environments.<\/p>\n

Moderated by UND Law alumna and former LWC president Taylor Kuznia, the panel featured Michelle Donarski, shareholder at ABST Law in Fargo; Stacey Dahl, vice president of external affairs at Minnkota Power and graduate of the UND School of Law; and Cassie Scheving, also a School of Law graduate and chief legal officer of Grand Forks-based ICON Architects.<\/p>\n

\u201cLegal expertise is invaluable beyond the courtroom, especially in shaping the policies, strategies and ethics that guide organizations,\u201d said Kuznia in her introduction to the panel.<\/p>\n

Persistence key to success in legal fields<\/h2>\n

The three panelists spoke candidly about navigating legal and legal-adjacent fields as women and offered advice to students in attendance. One shared observation was that, like Hamilton, they each had to show great persistence to get where they are today.<\/p>\n

Donarski, who transitioned from a career as a trial lawyer to one as a shareholder and corporate counsel, said that she has found her legal background especially helpful in the field of corporate law.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was the dumbest smart kid at UND Law. I was my own worst enemy,\u201d she said with a laugh. \u201cBut I worked hard, and now I get to make real impact advising clients in the boardroom.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dahl shared how a simple act of curiosity helped launch her leadership trajectory.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt started with, \u2018Can I sit in on this meeting?\u2019 That turned into leading a multiyear carbon capture project,\u201d she said. \u201cYou don\u2019t need to have it all figured out \u2014 you just need to show up and ask.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scheving said that being a woman working in a traditionally male-dominated field does present challenges but added that a positive perspective can make the challenge worthwhile.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve worked in male-led spaces my entire career,\u201d she said. \u201cI don\u2019t focus on what I lack \u2014 I focus on what I bring.\u201d<\/p>\n

Discussions also tackled work-life balance, a perennial problem in law. The panelists agreed that while those problems may seem unavoidable, boundaries and flexibility related to work-life balance evolve over time.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can\u2019t control everything, but you can protect something. For me, it\u2019s my daily gym hour \u2014 that\u2019s my time,\u201d said Scheving, of the effort she makes to retain some personal time during her day-to-day.<\/p>\n

And, to the audience of prospective law students, Donarski said that patience is key in hitting the sweet spot of work-life balance.<\/p>\n

\u201cBalance comes later,\u201d Donarski added. \u201cEarly on, throw yourself into learning. The rest will come.\u201d<\/p>\n

The panelists also emphasized the importance of mentorship, both formal and informal, and encouraged law students to seek connection and community.<\/p>\n

\u201cMentors are everywhere \u2014 professors, classmates, attorneys. You don\u2019t need a program to find someone who will help you grow,\u201d Donarski said.<\/p>\n

Scheving added that becoming a mentor to junior attorneys has been one of the most rewarding parts of her career.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I can help someone else avoid the same obstacles I faced, I\u2019ll do it every time,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Helen Hamilton\u2019s legacy lives on<\/h2>\n

For Burnside, the event was more than organizing speakers or scheduling panels \u2014 it was about showing her cohort and colleagues what is possible for them.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the reasons I was excited about the boardroom panel is because it shows UND Law grads having incredible success,\u201d she said. \u201cThat\u2019s what this is about: seeing the potential.\u201d<\/p>\n

And, as the panel and event ended, the panelists offered advice and affirmation for students who soon will begin their careers as lawyers and law experts.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re here at UND Law, you\u2019re smart. You belong,\u201d said Dahl of the imposter syndrome students may feel as they enter the workforce. \u201cYou may not know everything yet \u2014 but you will.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added that, though stepping into legal and leadership roles may be intimidating at first, it\u2019s possible to overcome initial insecurities. One of the most valuable pieces of advice she\u2019d ever received was a familiar adage shared by a UND professor as she prepared for a challenge.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe just said, \u2018Fake it. Just fake it,\u2019\u201d she said. \u201cI have taken that and applied it in many settings.\u201d<\/p>\n

Burnside said that while details on Hamilton\u2019s experience at UND aren\u2019t easy to find, she and the other members of the LWC and School of Law have found inspiration in her story.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe graduated in 1905. That\u2019s how early she was breaking barriers,\u201d Burnside said. \u201cIt\u2019s not just about honoring one woman. It\u2019s about continuing what she started \u2014 making sure that circle keeps expanding.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
