Kellogg Institute Reunion Open House — this Friday!

Dear Friends,

Just wanted to send a friendly reminder about the Kellogg Institute’s reception/open house tomorrow from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Several Kellogg staffers will have “stations” explaining their programs in the Great Hall of the Hesburgh Building –its a terrific way to learn about what is going on at the Kellogg Institute as well as enjoy some good food and good conversation.

We hope to see you there.

Warmest regards,

 

Steve

Brenda Teshka moving to the College of Arts & Letters

It is with mixed emotions that I congratulate Brenda Teshka on her new position as Sr. Administrative Assistant to Associate Dean JoAnn DellaNeva in the College of Arts & Letters.  I am saddened to see Brenda leave University Relations, and will miss her deeply, but am thrilled she has this new opportunity.  Most importantly, I look forward to hearing of her success in this next step in her career at Notre Dame.

I would like to thank Brenda for 16 years of service with University Relations.  Brenda has served in several capacities that include Coordinator in the Advisory Council Programs and Sr. Administrative Assistant for International Advancement. We will miss her greatly and wish her well.

Her last day in University Relations is today, Thursday, May 24. This opportunity and transition came about quickly, and I invite you to stop by the Café at Eddy Street at 1:30 p.m. today to wish her well.

My best,

Micki
