Dear colleagues,

I’m elated to share with you that effective Monday, April 14th, Tim Will will serve as the Associate Academic Advancement Director for the Ethics Initiative and ECG, the Institute for Educational Initiatives and the Alliance for Catholic Education, and ND Learning. I’m thrilled to be working with Tim, and I couldn’t be more excited for our team. Tim brings a wealth of energy, experience, and dedication to the University. Tim joins my “pod” as a teammate, alongside Grace Klise and Jason Stoller.

Prior to joining the Academic Advancement Team, Tim was the External Engagement Program Director for the Pulte Institute for Global Development. In this role, he oversaw communications, event planning, and policy impact with the overarching goal of positively impacting policy and promoting Pulte’s work worldwide. Previously, he spent over a decade working within Notre Dame’s Institute for Educational Initiatives in various capacities to advance the futures of children in Catholic schools.

Tim holds a BA from the University of Pittsburgh, an M.Ed. from the University of Notre Dame, and a Master of Science in Information Systems from DePaul University. He and his wife, Lindsay, have six children.

This was a robust, diligent, and efficient search that led to Tim’s hiring. The resounding and consistent positive feedback I received from those with whom Tim interviewed affirmed him as the top candidate for the job. I am grateful for his continued “yes” to the University of Notre Dame!

Please let me know if you need anything within the next two weeks before Tim settles into the role.

My best,

Mike Macaluso
