There are many opportunities for growth, and I look forward to working with Erin to enhance relationships with our loyal friends and alumni. She is already off to a great start.”

During her more than four years with the College of Education and Health Professions, Hogue worked to secure private gift support for the college by proactively identifying and building relationships with prospective donors and helping to further engage current benefactors to the college. She handled stewardship activities, administered the college’s scholarship process and oversaw the college’s Dean’s Advisory Council.
