Three members of the <\/span>Tusculum University<\/a><\/span> admissions team recently made presentations at a state association event that outlined their initiatives for driving success at the institution.<\/span><\/p>\n

Laura Battel, campus visit coordinator and admissions representative for three local counties; Allison Morton, senior admissions counselor and athletic liaison; and Hailie Smith, transfer coordinator, shared their stories at the Tennessee Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers conference in Knoxville.<\/span><\/p>\n

Battel<\/span><\/span>\u2019s presentation, \u201cCampus Visits: What to Ask,\u201d featured ways she interacts with prospective students when they come to campus. She emphasized the importance of developing connections with these visitors and giving them one-on-one attention so they feel as if Tusculum is their home. She shared her strategies to make her time with a potential student as authentic as possible and relayed how she trains Tusculum students to provide campus tours and to recognize how they are the face of the university for the visitor.<\/span><\/p>\n

Morton<\/span><\/span>\u2019s presentation, \u201cLeading with a Servant Heart,\u201d explored the way she approaches leadership. She has been guided by her master\u2019s degree studies at Tusculum and by John Maxwell\u2019s motivational speaking on leadership. She informed the audience that her method is to be a servant to everyone she leads and described her experiences with that philosophy. Morton highlighted the team atmosphere within the admissions department and how she makes herself available to her co-workers to answer questions and provide needed assistance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Smith\u2019s presentation, \u201cJust Ask: Building a Transfer Community,\u201d discussed how Tusculum works to increase the number of students transferring to the university and the many ways she makes that happen. She detailed her one-on-one interactions with potential students and special events and fairs she attends at local community colleges to enhance awareness of Tusculum. She also described her usage of social media to accomplish her goals and her mid-semester evaluation to determine what changes she needed to make in recruiting students.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI could not be prouder of our Tusculum presenters and what they have accomplished and now presented to help other educational institutions in our region,\u201d said Dr. James Hurley, the university\u2019<\/span>s president. <\/span><\/span>\u201cThey represent the work of so many outstanding individuals at Tusculum who have created the tremendous growth, innovation and change we have experienced in such a short time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Paul Pinckley, Tusculum\u2019s vice president of enrollment management and financial aid, also commended these admission team members.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>We<\/span><\/span>\u2019re impressed with the great work Laura, Allison and Hailie perform to advance Tusculum as an ideal location to receive a degree,\u201d he said. \u201cThey were excellent representatives of our university at this conference, and the best practices they shared demonstrate the quality that pervades Tusculum.\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
