Professor Karl Klare, an internationally renowned scholar in labor and employment law, was honored in May with a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Massachusetts Chapter of the National Lawyers Guild for his decades of scholarship, teaching and activism in advancing workers’ rights and progressive legal thought. “I am thrilled by this honor, especially because my career was in teaching rather than law practice,” said Klare. “The recognition is for our work at Northeastern Law as much as it is for me.”
