Steven Hunter, an attorney in the Chicago office of national law firm Quarles & Brady LLP, was recently named chairman of the Chicago Chapter of Brown University’s Inman Page Black Alumni Council (IPC).
The mission of IPC is to strengthen Brown University by directly addressing the needs and concerns of its black alumni and establishing a productive interaction among black alumni, students, faculty and staff.
The Chicago Chapter of the IPC was founded this year with the goal of making more of an impact on Brown University’s current and future African-American alumni.
“Our mission is to encourage qualified African-American high school students to consider Brown University for their higher education while fostering a sense of community among African-American alumni in Chicago,” Hunter said.
Hunter, who graduated from Brown with a degree in economics and political science, is a trial lawyer with first-chair experience representing corporations and lending institutions in commercial banking, real estate and construction litigation throughout the country. He was recently selected to join the next class of Fellows of the Leadership Council on Legal Diversity (LCLD) and was one of the 2012 Honorees at the Chicago Conversation Awards.
