Chelsae Cordia, our Donor Relations Coordinator, has resigned from Mizzou and is moving back to Poplar Bluff so her son Ben can start middle school with his friends. Chelsae has accepted an exciting new position with Anheuser-Busch, and, while we’ll miss her greatly, we wish her all the best in this next chapter. Her warmth and dedication have made a lasting impact, and she leaves with our deepest appreciation.

Effective August 1st, Megan Ballengee, outreach and engagement librarian, will be joining the Teaching & Learning Department.
