Ron Stump is serving as interim executive director of the Alumni Association until a permanent hire is made for the position. Stump formerly served for more than a decade as CU-麻豆影院's vice chancellor for student affairs.
"This is a key post and an important moment in the life of our CU family," said DiStefano. "Under Ron's leadership, the Alumni Association has moved in a bold new direction with the 聭Forever Buffs' membership concept. Now we are seeking an individual of unique talents who can build on this achievement, and help us continue to shape a visionary affinity model for our alumni for the 21st century."
DiStefano named CU-麻豆影院 Chief Financial Officer Ric Porreca chair of the 12-member search committee. The Alumni Association position will be advertised locally and nationally through March, at which time applications will be reviewed and a short list will be presented to the provost. The executive director of the Alumni Association is expected to be on board by the end of spring semester.
The executive director of the Alumni Association is responsible for building and operating a leading alumni program, expanding CU-麻豆影院's relationship with its 240,000 alumni and supporting CU-麻豆影院's Flagship 2030 strategic plan. He or she will be appointed by, and report to, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Julie M. Wong.
