Grad students join Enrollment Center staff

The Admissions and Enrollment Center is pleased to welcome two new graduate students to assist in recruiting activities such as high school visits, college fairs, and events on campus. Additionally, they will be working extensively on numerous communication outreach initiatives to our new students. Natalie and Dmitri each wrote a quick bio about themselves so you can get to know them a little better. Please welcome Dmitri and Natalie to campus if you see them out and about!

Natalie Nikitas

I attended Bluffton University in Ohio for my undergraduate work. There I majored in history/integrated social studies and communication. I was captain of the college’s softball team and was a member of the Honor Society (for those sports enthusiasts, I played 1st and 3rd base). I am originally from Louisville, Kentucky, and am a UK basketball fanatic.

An interesting tidbit: I have been fortunate enough to travel to 10 different countries located on 3 different continents and have lived in a remote village in Botswana, Africa.
