Student Information System Fellowship
As Presidential Fellow for the Workday Student Implementation, Amy will help represent Academic Affairs and contribute to a variety of conversations about business functions that affect faculty as a stakeholder group. She will focus specifically on how faculty will interface with the Student Information System and identify areas of change once the Workday Implementation is complete. She’ll also serve as a critical path of communication between project leadership and staff and faculty in Academic Affairs. In these roles, among other duties, Amy joins a team from across the college committed to streamlining processes where possible and simplifying interactions for staff, faculty, and students so that everyone can focus on student success.
