Fall Interns – Accepting Project Proposals and Student Referrals

Colleagues,

We are grateful for the 101+ colleagues who directly engaged with summer interns through June and July. Special thanks to UR Leadership, those who served as supervisors/mentors, and all Zoom presenters. This generous investment yielded a transformative experience.

Due to summer impact, with the directive and support of Lou and UR Leadership, we are pleased to expand (extend existing & create new) centrally-funded internships for the coming academic year.

Katie Engel named Director, Prospect Research

Dear Colleagues,

I am excited to announce that Katie Engel has been promoted to the position of Director, Prospect Research effective immediately. Katie has served as an integral member of the research team since she started at the University in July of 2018.

In addition to leading the prospect research team in her new role, Katie will be responsible for establishing the future vision of the team as we finish the Boldly Campaign and prepare for campaign 9. Along with other key priorities, Katie and her team will be instrumental in developing the prospect pipeline, leading efforts around education and training for the fundraisers regarding high-impact research questions that can be used during visits, and driving strategy around best practices for wealth research (technology, tools, practices, etc.). Through this role, Katie will work to implement a new set of innovative, creative, donor-centric and transformative initiatives that elevate the team’s contribution to the overall goals of the department.

Katie is a graduate of Pepperdine University, where she earned a BA in English, and Rochester Institute of Technology, where she earned a MS in Public Policy. Prior to coming to Notre Dame, Katie worked in legal writing and research. In her free time, Katie enjoys running and cycling. She hopes to one day qualify for the Olympic Trials in the marathon! Please join me in congratulating her as she embarks on the next phase of her career in serving Notre Dame.

We will look to post Katie’s former position of Research Analyst in the coming days. Please contact Katie or Tara if you have an interest in discussing the position.

All my best,

Brad

ND Shares: Religious Diversity | Thanks and Recording

Thank you to Shaheen Goldrick and the Diversity and Inclusion Committee for inviting professors Mun’im Sirry and Gabriel Reynolds to speak for the December ND Shares: Religious Diversity.

We had an engaged audience in the Family Room as we learned more about the key pillars of the Muslim faith and the nuances that exist within its global practice. As one might expect from such distinguished experts, their discussion provided the perfect balance of personal reflection, thought provoking points, and succinct descriptions we could readily remember.

You can watch the recording of this ND Shares HERE.

We hope to continue discussions on religious diversity present within our division so if you’d like to participate please reach out to Shaheen, Mary or Bryan.

During this talk, Mun’im and Gabriel reference their podcast, Minding Scripture. For anyone interested, here is the link: Minding Scripture Podcast
