SULC recognized for alumni employed in government service
In its winter 2016 issue, Prelaw Magazine placed SULC on its “honor roll” for alumni employed in government service.
In the article, “Best Schools for Public Service,” SULC was in the top 20 (#19) for government service based on “Curriculum,” including externships in government service; “Employment,” based on the percentage of grads who are employed in public service; and “Financial,” based on salary, student loan debt, and existence of a loan repayment program.
SULC was one of only two schools earning an A+ rating in public service employment.
“I am thrilled that Prelaw magazine recognizes that the Southern University Law Center is a leader in legal education,” Interim Chancellor John K. Pierre said. “This national ranking and recognition confirm that the Law Center continues to produce lawyer-leaders for the 21st century.”
“This ranking speaks volumes to SULC’s commitment to public service and a testament to our students strong desire to further the mission of our institution,” Tavares Walker, interim director of career services, said. “As a result, our students and graduates are drawn to careers in government service as a medium to participate in civic change,” Walker stated.
