I am excited to announce that Amelia Arthur will be continuing in the Academic Advisor (part-time) position through Summer 2019. She has done a wonderful job supporting our students as they prepared for the fall term and we are thankful for her continuing this work through the academic year. In this position, she has skillfully combined her leadership and academic experience, both at Luther and at previous institutions, with her heart for pastoral care as an ordained Deacon in the Episcopal Church. We are looking forward to a great year ahead!
