The University of Toledo will thank Stephanie Sanders for her service to the institution at a farewell reception Tuesday, Dec. 18.

Sanders, interim vice president for enrollment management, has led UT’s enrollment and retention efforts since 2016. She is returning to her home in Columbus at the conclusion of her contract. Her last day at UT will be Jan. 18.

The University community is invited to the reception from 3 to 5 p.m. in Thompson Student Union Room 2592.

“Thanks to Stephanie’s leadership, we have been able to enhance our marketing and recruitment strategies to increase student enrollment and retention after a period of decline,” UT President Sharon L. Gaber said. “I truly appreciate everything she has done for the University to put us on a path for continued success.”

Sanders joined UT from Ruffalo Noel Levitz, where she served as an executive consultant for the firm that specializes in strengthening higher education enrollment practices. She was a member of the firm’s team that consulted with UT on developing a strategic enrollment plan. Prior to joining Ruffalo Noel Levitz, Sanders spent nearly 30 years working in admissions at Ohio State University.

Jim Anderson, associate vice president for enrollment services for Boise State University, will succeed Sanders as UT’s vice president for enrollment management.
