UMA’s communications, marketing, alumni and donor engagement, events, and advancement teams will now be operating together under one department: External Relations.
This structure is intended to better align the department’s work with UMA’s strategic plan and create a more connected and coordinated approach across these areas.
What Faculty and Staff Need to Know
The most noticeable change will be how projects are requested and coordinated with External Relations.
An updated directory of roles and points of contact, along with a clearer process for submitting and managing requests, will be shared in the coming weeks.
For now, please continue using the same contacts and processes currently in place.
Questions about the new External Relations structure can be directed to Kristen Eaton, Vice President of External Relations, at kristen.eaton@maine.edu.
