The fifth annual Zell/Lurie Real Estate Career Fair held in the Annenberg Center on January 20, 2006, was a great success. One student wrote, "It is pretty astounding how many companies were there"-67-"and from so many different sectors of the real estate industry." The fair attracted well more than two hundred students, and was open to any student interested in the industry, university-wide. As usual, it offered an efficient venue for companies to meet our students pursuing careers in real estate. The number of participating companies increased yet again this year, evidencing great confidence in the quality of our programs and students.
