Jacer Aguilar
Attends University of Illinois (Champaign-Urbana)
Major: Labor and Employment Relations working towards a Master’s degree
Expected graduation date:  December, 2011
Received Dean’s list honors
SHRM Student and Chapter member
 Jacer received both her undergraduate and Master’s in Political Science from The University of Illinois.  Jacer will be in an internship program with Ford Motor Company this summer.
What peaked her interest in the Human Resources field was the effective impact she is able to create in any work setting.  She is interested in being an HR Generalist so she can participate and promote positive change in either benefits, recruiting, training or compensation.
 
Jacer is very active in the community.  She volunteers 5-10 hours per week with Books 2 Prisoners, Volunteer Illinois Projects (where she rotates volunteering at the Women’s Center), CASA Central (a nursing home),  and with the Israeli Fund for Holocaust survivors through the Hillel.  Jacer also started a scholarship fund through a microfinance initiative for underprivileged students in Croatia during her junior year in college.  This has since been expanded to India and China.  She spearheaded a trip to China this winter break to do research on developing techniques in HR and took students from the organization she created, Minority Leaders in Business Politics and Health.
