Background

The insurance industry is one of the largest employer segments in the United States employing 2.5 million people in 2015, according the U.S. Department of Labor, with over 6,000 insurance companies and over 38,000 independent insurance agencies.

This industry is a linchpin of U.S. economic growth and stability, providing a key financial backstop that allows other industries to take acceptable risks.

Most importantly, insurance provides financial security, protection and peace of mind for individuals, families and businesses, which aligns with the Holy Cross mission of “men and women for others.”

The insurance industry has long sought out graduates of liberal arts colleges and universities to provide necessary critical thinking skills and ethical leadership roles. Holy Cross has been and continues to be well-placed to fill those leadership roles with her talented graduates.
