Today, the University of Illinois College of Law published its 2019-2020 Employer Honor Roll. The Honor Roll recognizes employers who have regularly hired recent College of Law graduates. The Honor Roll contains a wide variety of employers, including firms of various sizes, government agencies, public interest employers, courts, and corporations. Combined, Honor Roll employers have hired nearly 200 recent College of Law graduates in the Classes of 2017, 2018 and 2019. The Honor Roll was first created in 2014. With the support of Honor Roll members, and hundreds of additional employers, the College of Law has been able to deliver an array of strong employment opportunities to its graduates.
“The 2019-2020 Employer Honor Roll is a diverse group, and demonstrates that College of Law graduates can make meaningful contributions to many different types of teams,” noted Greg Miarecki, the College’s Executive Assistant Dean for Career Planning and Professional Development. “We are especially pleased to welcome nearly a dozen new employers to the Honor Roll this year, and look forward to welcoming additional employers to the Honor Roll in the future,” Miarecki added.
