Lori (Graber) Keller, ’99

Lori majored in Economics and International Studies while at La Salle and interned at the Bureau of Labor Statistics. After graduation, she went to work for the Bureau of Labor Statistics and is still employed there. While worked at BLS, she obtained an MBA from Temple University in 2004.

Her comments on the Department include the following:

I always appreciated the smaller-sized classes at La Salle, which made it easier for staff and students to get to know each other better during any given semester. The staff of La Salle's Economic Department, in particular, had always taken a genuine interest in the progress that their students were making in all aspects of their academic lives.

Dr. Ratkus is solely responsible for convincing me to consider a major in Economics (for which I’m so grateful). And Dr. Paulin acted as my advisor once I began my co-op at the BLS.  Both teachers were always ready and willing to provide guidance, both academically and personally.
