Isabella Otradovec honored in UW-Whitewater’s Hired Before Graduation

LUXEMBURG – Isabella Otradovec, a 2022 graduate of Luxemburg-Casco High School who will graduate Saturday, May 16 with a degree in Human Performance at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, was recognized in the university’s Hired Before Graduation campaign.

Every year, UW-Whitewater showcases the many students who have landed a job, earned a job promotion, been accepted to graduate school or started a company before commencement. These students are invited to take a professional photo and be recognized on the university’s social media channels.

Otradovec was accepted to graduate school at Bellin College pursuing a Doctor of Physical Therapy in Green Bay.

“My three proudest moments or achievements during my time as a student at the university are being on the Dean’s List all eight semesters, being accepted into multiple prestigious graduate school programs and serving in ministry on campus and overseas,” Otradovec said. “I’d like to thank Mike Stibor for being an amazing instructor and mentor throughout my four years of college and helping me get to where I am today.”

As a result of a UW-Whitewater education, students gain valuable and transferrable skills, secure coveted internships and are often hired by employers before graduation. At UW-Whitewater, faculty and staff have connections with employers across Wisconsin and the country. Each year, more than 600 employers come to campus for job fairs, giving students a chance to network and even apply for jobs and internships on the spot.

More than 98% of recent graduates report they are employed or enrolled in continuing education within one year of commencement.
