UWindsor staff, faculty, and alumni will encounter some new faces when they interact with the Office of Alumni Affairs and Donor Communications.

Nicole Broderick has taken over the portfolio of overseeing the Annual Giving Program, and grad Rob Janisse (BA 2009) is the newly-minted alumni co-ordinator of special projects.

The Annual Giving Program raises funds in support of a variety of on-campus causes, including student scholarships and awards. Broderick co-ordinates campaigns to appeal to alumni, retirees, faculty, and staff.

She says the best part of her job thus far has been working with students on the phonathon to reach out to grads.

“I also really appreciate how welcoming everyone has been,” says Broderick.

Janisse’s position is new, inaugurated with his hiring in February. He is responsible for creating and administering a volunteer management program to increase engagement with alumni.

“I’m excited to be back at the University, experiencing a different side of the institution,” Janisse says. “Having alumni and friends join in community projects will help us to build a sense of belonging, right from the time you’re a student.”
