The Missouri State Way and United Way campaigns have kicked off. Missouri State University faculty and staff make a difference on our campus and in our community by participating in these campaigns.
You will receive a campaign packet in campus mail this week. You can also find information on the campaign webpage. Please join me in completing and submitting the contribution forms by Nov. 8 to participate.
After you complete your forms, please plan to attend the free Celebration Luncheon at 11:30 a.m. Nov. 15 in the PSU Ballroom. We will draw for prizes at the luncheon, and everyone that attends will receive a bookstore coupon.
Jessica Silvey joins my office
At the August Board of Governors meeting, Rowena Stone, my current executive assistant, accepted the board’s offer to serve as their new board secretary.
Last week we completed the search to hire a new executive assistant in my office. I am pleased to report that we have hired Jessica Silvey to fill that position with a Dec. 1 start date.
Jessica has worked for the university since 2009 as executive assistant in the office of the Associate Provost for Student Development and Public Affairs. She earned a bachelor’s degree from Missouri State cum laude, received the university’s 2019 Excellence in Advising Support Award, and is a member of this year’s University Staff Ambassador’s class.
I am excited for Jessica to join my office and continue to help us move Missouri State forward.
Thanks for all you do for Missouri State!
