"The School of Labor and Employment Relations is a key partner in providing HR talent for Emerson. As alumni of the program, we have always seen the value of our LER degree in our careers, and we are thrilled that Emerson sees this value as well. It’s clear that it is time that the physical structure of the building matched the quality of the talent produced by the program. This addition will allow a better learning environment with cutting-edge technology that will keep the LER talent on pace with the changes in the field of HR. We are proud to be involved with this new space in the building and to continue our partnership with LER."
Emerson's gift was supported by LER alumni and Vice Presidents of HR, John Ramon (JD/MHRIR 2001), Demetrios Georgacopoulos (MHRIR 2000), Nick Piazza (MBA/MHRIR 2003) and Global HR Director Mariah Small (MHRIR 2005). Their generous gift will name the Emerson Entryway in the addition.
