“I am so delighted that Jenny will be joining our team,” said Connie Harris, vice president of development and alumni relations. “She brings 20 years of strong experience to this senior role as an alumna who already has an ‘insider’ relationship with the College.”
After graduating from Muhlenberg College in 1986 with a B.A. in English, McLarin worked in the fields of public relations and marketing in St. Louis, MO and Chicago, IL. She returned to Muhlenberg in 2002.
As a dynamic member of the senior management team of the office of admission, McLarin actively worked with students and their families in interviews and information sessions, influencing and encouraging them to select Muhlenberg College.
Additionally, McLarin oversaw the creation and publication of the annual “Career Survey” brochure, which highlights what Muhlenberg graduates are doing one year out of school, and she interviewed faculty and wrote copy for “Great Teachers/Great Courses” brochures.
As director of alumni relations, McLarin will be responsible for planning and implementing programs and activities that engage the College's alumni with their alma mater in ways that strengthen Muhlenberg and enhance the lives of its students, faculty, staff and graduates.
“Jenny is an outstanding professional whose commitment to excellence will strengthen the alumni relations and reunion fundraising areas. She brings an incredible passion for the highest and best interests of Muhlenberg College and all constituencies,” said Harris.
