MURRAY, Ky. 鈥� 天美传媒 has named Roslyn White interim assistant vice president of enrollment management in the Division of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management. In this role, White will focus on developing strategies and initiatives aimed at undergraduate student recruitment, provide leadership and energy to the enrollment management team and serve as a resource in all areas of recruitment, admissions and retention.

White鈥檚 expertise is highly respected in the enrollment management profession due to her many years of expertise and experiences in the recruitment of students and working with parents and school officials. She is not only recognized professionally in the state of Kentucky, but also at a national level.

Previously, White has held multiple positions at 天美传媒 in the office of Multicultural Recruitment along with being director of admissions and recruitment at Meharry Medical College, director of educational programs at the Lincoln Foundation and assistant vice president for enrollment management at Alcorn State University. She is a 1997 Bachelor of Science graduate in elementary education from Mississippi Valley State University and an educational psychology major from Alcorn State University.

鈥淚t鈥檚 not in my resume, but I have been in higher education all of my life,鈥� said White. 鈥淏oth of my parents worked at Mississippi Valley University, a historically Black university for most of my childhood. We lived on campus, so I often feel that higher education is in my blood. My father was a librarian and was an adjunct English and French professor. My mother was a registered nurse in the campus infirmary.鈥�

White鈥檚 career in higher education has spanned in various roles of recruitment and enrollment management positions over the past 20 years.

鈥淏eing back at Murray these past couple of weeks have been wonderful,鈥� added White. 鈥淲hen I left Murray two years ago to work at my alma mater as the assistant vice president for enrollment management, my thoughts that my life had come full circle and that I would spend the final years of my career in higher education back in Mississippi, which was 鈥榟ome鈥�, became my reality. When I was approached about the opportunity to come back to Murray, I realized that I had left 鈥榟ome鈥� and that it was time to come back. Being surrounded by co-workers that I've known for years and whom I鈥檝e grown with professionally was the balm that I needed. I am so glad to renew my professional relationships here in Kentucky and across the nation. Murray is where I truly learned about higher education and discovered my passion for helping students forge their path to postsecondary education. It is the place that allowed me to grow professionally and personally. Murray is the place where my son Brian received his bachelors' degree; where he grew up and made lifelong friends. Murray is home.鈥�

鈥淚 am very excited about the return of Roslyn White as the interim assistant vice president for enrollment management,鈥� said Dr. Don Robertson, vice president for student affairs and enrollment management. 鈥淪he is a significant addition to our recruitment operation and is an outstanding ambassador for 天美传媒 and the Division of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management. Her expertise, professional network and student focus will benefit the entire University.鈥�
