LANSING – Cooley Law School student Catherine Gagnon was selected as the 2024 winner of the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) Michigan Chapter Scholarship for Academic Excellence in Corporate and Business Classes. She will be honored as the $3,000 scholarship recipient during the ACC award ceremony later this spring.
As part of the ACC’s mission of encouraging law students to consider careers in corporate legal departments, the ACC Michigan Chapter selected Gagnon for the scholarship based on demonstrating academic achievement, particularly in business-law related classes.
Since its inception in 1983, the Michigan Chapter of ACC has grown from an initial group of about 35 to more than 600 attorneys serving as general counsel, assistant general counsel and corporate counsel to automotive companies, financial institutions, health care providers, utilities, retailers, science and technology companies, and educational institutions throughout Michigan. The chapter’s offerings include: continuing legal education, opportunities to network with other in-house attorneys, and advocacy on behalf of the profession.
