UR Friends and colleagues,

I write to inform you that Jay McAllister will be leaving the University. Jay has served admirably in his roles at Notre Dame since joining the University in June of 2016, and is a friend to many throughout the Notre Dame community. Jay will be leaving for a position at Duke University, where he will be the inaugural program director for transformational gifts.

Per Jay, “this move to Duke gives me a tremendous opportunity to push myself professionally. It also provides Lindsey with a greater trajectory for her career, gets us closer to family, and will enable my mom to finally retire in a warmer climate — things that as a husband, father, and son I could not pass up being able to provide.”

Jay’s last day with Notre Dame will be January 4th, 2023. Please join me in wishing Jay success and happiness in this next endeavor.

Sean Sharpe
