成人直播 introduced a new addition to the Wellbeing@成人直播 team, Marcy Stidum. The new Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs for Wellbeing brings with her a fresh perspective on altruism and grace, significant philanthropic efforts, and the world of public administration. 

"My goal is to create and grow more new programs like the Counseling and Psychological Services (CPS) Case Management Program and Campus Awareness, Resource, and Empowerment (CARE) Services," said Stidum. "Now, being on the outside looking in and getting to see what staff who've come after me have done or will do to take both programs beyond what I could imagine, it's simply wonderful!鈥�

Initially serving as the Associate Director of Counseling and Psychological Services here at 成人直播, Stidum has demonstrated her experience and knowledge in helping to create better living experiences for those lost in the 40,000+ students we serve here at 成人直播.

"Our goal is to become a collection of innovative programs that touch the lives of each and every 成人直播 student in a meaningful way"鈥� said Stidum.

"Marcy Stidum, our former Executive Director of CARE Services and Student Volunteerism, is a prolific fundraiser, having brought in millions of dollars to 成人直播 that have been crucial in supporting our students in need here," said Dr. Eric Arneson, 成人直播 Vice President for Student Affairs. 鈥淢arcy is an extremely talented and dedicated member of the 成人直播 family, and we are very fortunate to have her leadership in this new role.鈥�

In addition to her new position, Stidum is currently the Conference Curriculum Co-Chair of the Embark Georgia statewide committee.

(Bill) Hanson Collaboration Award and most recently, the 2021 成人直播 Positive Impact/Service to the Community Staff Award.

After more than ten years of meaningful public service, Stidum said this about continuing with 成人直播 in this new chapter.

"I am so blessed and thankful to have the honor of serving in this role. I am excited to discover all the ways the Student Wellbeing Team and I can support our students and campus for many more years to come."
