New Face in Career Services
Some of you may have noticed a new face when you enter the Career Services Office. Kelley McCottrell is no longer with the law school, having accepted a position with Schnuck Markets, Inc. in their corporate headquarters. It is a great opportunity for Kelley and, though we miss her, we wish her well in her new position. We are pleased and excited, however, to welcome Colleen Murphy as our new Career Services Assistant. Colleen has been with the University for almost 10 years. For the last eight years she was working in our Alumni and Development Office and is thus quite familiar with the law school. Please stop by to say hello to Colleen.
