Dear colleagues:

After 7.5 years serving as a core member of the Special Events and Stewardship team, Beth Ferlic has accepted the position of Care Consultant in the Division of Student Affairs where she will support and facilitate care for students in need. In her new role, she will serve on the Leadership Team for the Health and Wellness Unit, the CARE Team, and serve as a consultant for the deans and faculty in the College of Arts & Letters. This role will enable her to apply her experience and therapeutic skills as she completes her Master’s degree in counseling.

In her time as a member of the SE&S team, Beth brought tremendous passion, creativity, and joy to her work and colleagues. Under her leadership, the Communications, Recognition, and Stewardship pod had milestone accomplishments, including executing an unprecedented volume of recognition and reporting for capital benefactors, launching the inaugural stewardship calendar, and creating highly personalized touches for the University’s principal benefactors. From impact communications to event planning to gift giving, her work with principal benefactors and fundraisers has helped to propel Notre Dame’s top donors through the philanthropic giving cycle, encouraging continued giving and broadened engagement. Her service and leadership on the ND Voice committee is characteristic of her commitment to enhancing the well-being of others and workplace culture, as well as to advancing the University’s overall mission.

Beth’s last day will be February 16. Please join me in congratulating her on this next step in her new career!

In Notre Dame,

Katherine Lane
