Pitzer College Fills Key Positions in Advancement and 
Marketing

Claremont, Calif. (Dec. 11, 2002) – Pitzer College has hired Anne Donovan Moran 
as its new Vice President for College Advancement, and Susan C. Andrews as 
Executive Assistant to the President for Marketing and Planning, both key positions 
for the future of the College, which will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2003.  Moran 
and Andrews will arrive at Pitzer in January.

Moran, an accomplished fundraiser and higher-education visionary with great 
success in developing and establishing innovative programs, has served as the 
Southwest Regional Director for Major Gifts at CARE in Los Angeles for the past 
four years. In addition to raising major gifts from individuals, corporations and 
foundations, Moran also led a national effort to integrate CARE's staff across 
fundraising and marketing. Prior to working at CARE, Anne was President and 
CEO of Immaculate Heart College Center where, among many achievements, she 
re-envisioned the institution by integrating M.A. degrees in Global Studies and 
Feminist Spirituality, and programs and resources in international and intercultural 
studies.  She also significantly expanded grant-funded activities.  Anne has worked 
for a number of top schools such as the University of Southern California, Syracuse 
University, Georgetown University and Iona College, and was the Founding 
Executive Director & COO of University of Cape Town Fund Inc., which continues as 
one of the largest U.S. foundations created to support educational initiatives in 
South Africa. 

Moran, who holds a B.S.F.S. (Bachelor of Science, Foreign Service) from 
Georgetown University, will be responsible for all Advancement activities at Pitzer 
College, including coordinating fundraising, alumni activities and the ongoing $40 
million comprehensive Campaign for Pitzer College.

Andrews, who has extensive administrative experience in marketing in higher 
education and substantial supervisory experience within the liberal arts environment, 
has served as Associate Vice President for Marketing and Public Relations at 
Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minn., for the past two years.  While at 
Gustavus Adolphus, she developed and implemented the college's first-ever 
marketing campaign.  Prior to working at Gustavus Adolphus, Andrews was 
Northwestern University's Director of Communications for the Division of Information 
Technology, where she enhanced that college's image as one of the top-ranked 
institutions for the effective use of technology.
 
Andrews holds an M.S. in Technical Communication and Information Design from 
the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, and a B.S. in English from Western 
Illinois University.  She will be responsible for Pitzer's marketing, public relations 
and special college-wide events. She also will be responsible for developing 
integrated marketing campaigns in keeping with the mission of the college and will 
work with all departments and groups that market the college or individual 
programs.  

Pitzer also is preparing for the inauguration of its fifth president, Laura Skandera 
Trombley, who arrived at the college in July. The weeklong inaugural celebration 
from Feb. 10-15, 2003, will coincide with the beginning of the college's yearlong 
40th anniversary celebration.
