Employment Department at Seyfarth Shaw's Chicago office;
she passed away in September 2008 after a long battle
with cancer. Seyfarth Shaw and Ms. Zemm's family, friends,
and colleagues have raised money to fund an annual prize
in her honor.
The Sandra P. Zemm Prize in Labor and Employment Law will
be awarded annually to a third or fourth year student

Sandy so special:
A commitment to pursue a career in labor and employment
law, a pioneer spirit and willingness to take the initiative,
and a gracious and generous attitude toward helping those
in need.
The Prize this year is $1,000. If you know someone in
the Certificate Program whom you think embodies the characteristics
for which Ms. Zemm is remembered, please consider nominating
that person for the Zemm Prize.
