Meet The Staff

For 136 years, Wesley College has pursued an important mission in higher education—to educate young men and women to make a difference in their communities and around the world. The Office of Institutional Advancement helps mobilize the resources for this undertaking. Institutional Advancement consists of four major functional areas working together: development, alumni, college relations, government relations and marketing.
