Morningside Connect

A change is going to take place in alumni relations at Morningside College on June 1. That’s the date Shiran Nathaniel officially assumes the duties of alumni director.

Some of you already know Shiran from your student days at Morningside when he was general manager of the Sodexo food service on campus for seven years. During the past year, Shiran served as assistant director of alumni relations. And many of you may have met him at alumni events on campus or at various gatherings the alumni office sponsored around the country.

Shiran will be leading the alumni office at an exciting time. Morningside is expanding alumni programs and exploring new was to connect with you.

I will start a new role as special projects assistant in the president’s office at Morningside. In my new assignment, I will still interact with alumni – only in a slightly different way. One of my new assignments is to build an organized and highly proactive student-alumni mentorship program in cooperation with our career services staff on campus. Also, Morningside is coming up on its 125th anniversary, and I will help oversee planning and execution of that year-long celebration.

Morningside College has made tremendous progress over the past 15 years. The campus has been transformed, enrollment has grown and new academic programs are preparing students for fulfilling careers. During this period, alumni played an important role in supporting Morningside. Under Shiran’s leadership, the alumni office will continue to involve alumni in new and exciting ways with all of the great things happening at this college.
