“The College and the Foundation were fortunate to have someone with Tanya’s skills and talents perfectly situated to step into this position,” said President Timothy Stokes. “The move was seamless.  We haven’t missed a beat in the important work of supporting students’ journey through the college and on to a good life.”

The College Foundation Board of Directors also expressed their unanimous support for Mote’s move to the new post.

“I’m excited about this new role, the work ahead and the opportunity to work with our amazing Foundation board and staff to support student success,” Mote said. “I feel fortunate to do meaningful work that I love and for the support of the Foundation Board, Dr. Stokes and the college administration.”
