Post Graduation Employment Issues

Each Spring, the Office of International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) invites a member of the Miller Mayer law firm in Ithaca, New York to come to Binghamton University to speak about Post Graduation Employment Issues.

Attorney Hilary Fraser spoke at Binghamton on March 3, 2009 and has granted permission for the ISSS to post her presentation materials on the ISSS website.  Ms. Fraser has also updated her PowerPoint presentation and added additional items.  They appear below.

We hope you find these materials helpful.   For more information on the law firm, visit http://www.millermayer.com
