A
secretary at Indiana State University since 1978, Shirley has spent all of
those years affiliated with the office of Public Affairs (formerly
Communication Services, News Service and also Public Information) –
initially as a senior secretary and now, as an Office Assistant III.
She is
responsible for coordinating the dissemination of all news releases and
press packets, updating media mailing lists and e-mail databases, handling
all budget information and helping to supervise student employees and
interns.
Prior
to coming to ISU, she served three years with the United Way as a
secretary, cashier and accountant (1969). More than seven years of her
life were spent working with the National Council on Crime and Delinquency
(this prepared her well to work with her colleagues in Public Affairs).
She also previously worked as an office manager in several other
locations, including California, Iowa, Missouri, Washington and Indiana.
Shirley
remembers back when she first came to ISU – in the days before computers
and the BANNER system. “We just used our pencils, typewriters and ledger
books,” she said. “What progress we’ve made.”
While
at ISU, Shirley has worked under five vice presidents of University
Advancement and three presidents.
She lives
in Terre Haute with her husband, Raymond, her daughter, Ginger, and
grandsons Frank and Chris.
