ICAA June 2021 Newsletter

Newsletter
June 2021

 

 

A note from the author...

Summer is official, and we hope it is a season of optimism and renewal for all of our members! We also send good vibes for everyone’s end of fiscal year efforts.

ICAA would not be ICAA without a core group of volunteers fulfilling its mission. This issue highlights a great opportunity to nominate a colleague – or yourself – for a position on the ICAA Executive Committee. More information below. ICAA’s President Beau Slater is happy to speak with anyone seeking more information about serving on the EC. Email Beau at b-slater.1@onu.edu.

After three years of serving as ICAA secretary, which includes writing the content of this newsletter each month, I will be passing the torch in August and continuing my service to ICAA in a member-at-large role. This will be the last newsletter I prepare. Thank you for reading!

See you at conference,

Lisa Judge
ICAA Secretary

 

We Want YOU!
Join the ICAA Executive Committee

Looking for a new leadership opportunity or way to contribute that uses your skill set and knowledge of higher ed advancement? Nominate yourself – or another colleague – for the ICAA Executive Committee. We are committed to recruiting diverse talent and perspectives representing all generations, experience levels and backgrounds.

Meetings are held virtually, every two months, to help steer strategy and programming for our members. A few positions have defined role descriptions while others are more flexible with the opportunity to lead special, self-contained initiatives. The EC is a fun, collaborative bunch. As we support ICAA, we also support each other. A few thoughts from our current members:

“When I took my position at Capital University, I had only lived in the world of large, state school higher education- so this was a shift in culture. Serving as an at-large member for the Executive Committee helped accelerate my understanding of my peer institutions, as well as quickly making a new set of wonderful colleagues, who were more than happy to assist in the transition.”

-Amanda Ritchey, Senior Director of Alumni Engagement, Capital University 

“There is a lot of energy and idea generation on the EC, and there is never a lack of opportunity to get involved right away. I have enjoyed working with the EC to plan a virtual professional development opportunity as well as project manage a membership survey to better serve the needs of our members. In an interesting year, it has been a good way to stay connected and build my network.”

-Lee Ann Jourdan, AVP for Alumni Engagement and Annual Giving, Franklin College
