Team,
Stuart Summers has accepted a position outside of Idaho and will be stepping down as our Associate Vice President of Marketing and Communications at the end of the month. Stuart has been a member of our executive leadership team for the last seven years, and his commitment to our students and mission will be greatly missed.
Stuart first came to Idaho State in 2003 as a student, and he remained connected to the University after his graduation. He returned in 2011 to work in the College of Technology, before assuming his current role as the Associate Vice President of Marketing and Communications in 2016. Four years ago, Stuart led our University’s first-ever comprehensive marketing campaign and oversaw the creation and implementation of our rebrand. In his current role, he has also worked to improve our media relations and internal communications.
I want to express my sincere gratitude and thanks to Stuart for his service and commitment to our University and wish him well in the future. I join many others in our community who will miss Stuart and his positive attitude.
To provide continued leadership while preparations for a search is launched, I have named Miriam Dance the Interim Associate Vice President of Marketing and Communications. Miriam has been a part of our campus community for nearly 15 years, and she is no stranger to marketing and communications. She is currently the Executive Director of Marketing, and is a strong leader who is deeply respected across campus. I appreciate her willingness to assume this position and provide stability during this transitional period. She will start in the interim role on Monday, November 21.
Please join me in wishing Stuart well on his next adventure, and thanking Miriam for her continued support of our University.
––Kevin
