Public Service Stars

Students who fulfill Northwestern Pritzker Law's public service hourly goal are honored at a luncheon during graduation week and receive special recognition at graduation. Their names are highlighted in the graduation bulletin, and they receive gold and purple honor cords and tassels to wear at the graduation ceremony. Students who have committed significantly more time are indicated below. View details surrounding special recognition.

In 2026, 67 graduating students completed our student public service goal of at least 50 hours of public service or the equivalent goal for students here less than three years, 29 students achieved high honors of 100 hours or more, and 18 students provided extraordinary service and volunteered more than 200 hours.
