Welcome to the 2024 Summer Intern Cohort!

Team,

We are thrilled to announce the arrival of our 2024 Summer Intern Cohort! This summer, we are excited to welcome interns from a diverse array of backgrounds and academic disciplines. Each intern has been carefully selected for their unique skills and potential to contribute meaningfully to our projects. As they embark on this journey with us, they will be involved in a variety of tasks, gaining hands-on experience and contributing to the success of our department.

We encourage everyone in the office to extend a warm welcome to our new interns. This is a fantastic opportunity for both our colleagues and new interns to learn from each other. Whether it’s through a casual coffee chat, collaboration on project work, or a formal meeting, let’s make every effort to integrate them into our community. If you’d like to learn more about the interns and their work over the summer prior to connecting with them, please feel free to visit our google site UR Interns 2024. We are excited about the journey ahead and look forward to seeing the growth and achievements of our 2024 Summer Intern Cohort.

Welcome aboard, interns! We are delighted to have you with us.

Thank You and Best Wishes to Roz Palusci

After 16 years of service to Our Lady’s University, Roz Palusci will be retiring at the end of the fiscal year. Roz came to Notre Dame after a 28-year history in commercial banking, brokerage, and consulting.

While at Notre Dame she has served as Development Coordinator, Regional Associate, and Associate Program Director. In these roles, she partnered with some of our most successful RDs, leaders, and teams in Regional Development and has been an integral collaborator behind the scenes in our Wall Street efforts. (Not to mention that she did this all while pioneering remote work long before it was fashionable.)

In retirement, Roz is looking forward to spending more time with her husband, Vince, as well as their two children and four grandchildren. Along with lots of travel, Roz plans to take advantage of the vibrant culture of her beloved New York City.

Roz is going to miss the camaraderie and shared experiences with her coworkers but will be on campus June 6th and 7th to spend some non-virtual time with everyone. Please reach out to her to make sure you get to see her and congratulate her!

Spring Cleaning!

This week, there will be large bins available throughout the third floor of ESC and floors 10 and 11 in Grace Hall. Please use these bins to take some time to declutter your workspace and/or your assigned locker.

If you have items that you don’t want anymore but feel that they may be useful to someone else, please place these items on the table on the East wall in the Cafe (ESC) or on the large table when you first walk into the suite on 11S (Grace). Any items that are not taken will be sent to ND Surplus or disposed of on May 29th.

Finally, we will be bringing in an outside cleaning company during remote July to clean carpets, glass interiors and surfaces in private offices and cubicles. This decluttering effort is meant to start to prepare your spaces for this cleaning effort. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact Patty Kokesh or Nancy Cole.

Annual Giving Spring Renewal Mailing #3

Dear Colleagues,

The third spring renewal mailing (renew #3) drops in mailboxes on Friday, May 17 to our unrestricted and giving society benefactors. As a reminder, this mailing is sent to all assigned and unassigned benefactors whose annual giving is less than $25,000, asking them to renew their previous calendar year gift by their respective fund owner. This mailing is being sent to over 5,000 households and will be followed by email reminders in the weeks to come. If you have any questions regarding our renewal strategy, please reach out to the appropriate fund (Sorin, Rockne, Law, etc.) owner on the annual giving team and they can assist.

Thanks!
