Tom Molnar and Patrick Kaiser are pleased to announce that veteran University Relations team member, Kathy Lentych, will be joining East Region Development in the important Administrative Assistant role.

Kathy has faithfully served Our Lady’s mission since 1999 in a variety of roles, including Letter Shop, Sorin Society, Special Events and Stewardship.  Her vast experience and heart for serving and strengthening our important benefactor relationships will become invaluable to Tom and Patrick out in the field.  Her steady and humble nature will also help to keep them “organized.”

She will continue to assist with Stewardship until her new position start of March 2nd, (back at Eddy Street) which happens to coincide with her Notre Dame start over 16 years ago.

Please congratulate Kathy on her new role when you get a chance.

I am writing to announce that Karin Dale has been promoted as the new Dean’s Administrator in the College of Arts and Letters. I could not be more pleased.  We were pleased to have had a number of well-qualified applicants, from the College, across the University and from off-campus.  In her new capacity, Karin will serve to facilitate my role as Dean, following the good example of Cindy Swonger, as well as some additional supervisory duties in our office.

Karin joined the Dean’s Office team this past August as a senior administrative assistant.  Previously she served the University as an Events and Project Coordinator in the Mendoza College of Business.

Please join me in congratulating Karin on her new position.

Sincerely,

John T. McGreevy
