The Collegian AIG nominating committee recommended Krystle Kopacz, Terrence Casey, Sheila (McCauley) Young and Leen Obeidat. Terrence, Sheila and Leen are current board members seeking second terms. If elected, Krystle would be a new board member.
Terrence is Director of Communications and Outreach for the Penn Memory Center and the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center at the University of Pennsylvania.
Leen is Director of Business Development at flytedesk, a technology firm that bridges the gap between national advertisers and college media.
Sheila is a dual-career executive who raised more than $41 million as a Major Gifts officer and who, as a journalist, led national news projects and pioneered digital media.
Krystle is CEO of Revmade, a marketing and communications strategy company. She founded Revmade in 2016 after more than a decade in digital media where her work focused on editorial, product and revenue transformation.
The AIG is working on projects intended to help The Collegian survive the university’s decision to eliminate all subsidies for the student media organization as of this school year.
If you are interested in helping the Collegian, please send an email to [email protected]. The AIG is looking for alumni to serve as mentors to Collegian students and to serve on committees that provide services to students such as Zoom roundtables during which issues important to the students are discussed by experts.
