Meet the Team

On-Campus Days

The Marketing and Communications team will be available on campus on Tuesdays and Thursdays. For assistance outside of on-campus days, please contact E Smudde, Brand Operations Manager.

The Marketing and Communications Department is a dedicated and eager group of professional communicators charged with promoting the college and upholding its reputation and brand.

We’re your partner for all things branding, marketing and communication. While our main focus leans towards student recruitment, college-wide initiatives, and government and donor relations, we’re also here to help you utilize the resources needed to communicate on behalf of the college and reach your marketing goals.
