The AD will be responsible for leading on-campus efforts to engage with students and introduce them to the alumnae community and traditions through programs with campus partners, including Stepsinging, Hoop Rolling, the Alumnae Achievement Awards, and Reunion. This strategic cultivation will lead to welcoming recent graduates as the College's newest alumnae through early engagement and connection, to help build the pipeline for long-term loyalty and philanthropy while deepening the sense of community amongst the young alum cohort following the COVID-19 pandemic. For the annual Wellesley Reunion weekend for 2,300+ alumnae and guests, the AD will leverage their student engagement work and relationships with campus partners to serve as the lead for the 100+ student workers supporting Reunion weekend, including recruitment, hiring, training, and management of those workers (recruitment / hiring begins early in the spring semester).
