Susan Davies and Rose Reinhart have joined university administration as the new associate vice chancellor for Enrollment Management and Registrar, respectively.
Vice Provost of Undergraduate Education David P. Haney said there was a lot of turnover in those two areas over the past year, and he is glad to have found two permanent officials.
Last year, the university hired search firms and started a committee to fill these two positions. In the end, they invited three possible candidates to the university and Provost Stan R. Aeschleman made the final decision.
Reinhart, who
joined the university Sept. 1, said as registrar, she is responsible
for the student records and maintaining their correctness and their
integrity and their security.
“My
position deals with making sure that a student’s academic history
accurately reflects what the student [needs] while they’re at the
institution,” Reinhart said.
Reinhart said her main goals include developing the degree audit system with her staff and the institution.
Both women have a number of plans to improve student’s experience at the university.
“I have
been so appreciative of the willingness of the Appalachian family to
welcome my position and ideas,” Davies said. “Clearly, this is a very
special place.”
Davies,
the associate vice chancellor for Enrollment Management, was previously
the admissions director aat Georgia Southern University and joined
Appalachian July 1.
Davies
is responsible for the supervision of the Office of Admissions, the
Office of the Registrar and the College Awareness Program (Upward
Bound, GEAR-UP, and Western North Carolina Network for Access &
Success).
Davies said she has many plans for improvement in the university.
These
include: developing an enrollment management plan to achieve the
enrollment goals outlined in Appalachian’s Strategic Plan in order to
increase enrollment in underrepresented populations and starting a
degree audit software program which will allow students and advisers to
closely follow degree progression.
