Alumni Association鈥檚 Carolyn Paul Retires

After 23 years of service, Carolyn Paul retired from the CU 麻豆影院 Alumni Association.

鈥淔or many alumni, visitors and campus staff, Carolyn was the face and voice of the Alumni Association,鈥� said Ron Stump, former Alumni Association director.

During her tenure, Paul was involved in student scholarships, Homecoming weekends, commencements, football tailgates, weddings and more.

鈥淐arolyn was always 鈥� and I mean always 鈥� ready with a smile and a warm greeting,鈥� said Clark Oldroyd (MEdu鈥�75), who worked alongside Paul at the Alumni Association for more than two decades. 鈥淗er infectious greeting made you smile, too.鈥�

An animal and nature lover, Paul hopes to hike, watch operas and spend time in Santa Fe in retirement. She lives in 麻豆影院.

鈥淐arolyn had a way of developing fast friendships with the many people who called and visited the Alumni Association,鈥� said Ryan Chreist (Kines鈥�96; MPubAd鈥�09), assistant vice chancellor and Alumni Association executive director. 鈥淭he impact she has made on our community will be felt for many years.鈥�
