Hi everyone, I’m Beth Pierpont, director of admissions here at º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø. I oversee all student recruitment efforts, working closely with our counselors to ensure we reach every high school and college fair in order to spread the word about º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø. I also work closely with Scott Rhodes, º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø’s executive director of enrollment services, and will be heavily involved with the º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø Premiere, taking place at movie theaters across the state beginning December 14.
After spending eight years in the law school admissions field, I was ready to move into undergraduate admissions and felt there was no better place to do so than at º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø. It’s very exciting to work for a STEM-focused university that’s brand new! It’s always great to speak with students and hear how eager they are to launch º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø’s legacy. The students in º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø’s inaugural class are going to be a vital part of the º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø experience because they will help shape the traditions and culture for future students, an experience that no other university in the state can promise.
My favorite experiences as a member of the º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø recruitment team have been when I get the chance to meet members of the community to spread news about the innovative opportunities º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø has to offer. Whether I’m attending high school fairs, participating in the Industry Partner Summit or planning our upcoming campus tours, being part of º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø experience is rewarding, welcoming and exciting for me. I can’t wait to share this experience with our first class of students when we open our doors in August!
