Announcement: Jessica Tallman, New Director of Alumni Relations

The Division of Development is pleased to announce the
appointment of Jessica Tallman as Director of Alumni Relations. Jessica
Tallman is a graduate of the Jepson School of Leadership Studies at the
University of Richmond.

Ms. Tallman began her career in Development as the Assistant Director of
Alumni and Parent Programs at St. Lawrence University. During her tenure
at St. Lawrence, she developed a highly successful alumni relations
stewardship program, participated in strategic planning and
implementation of Reunion Weekend, was responsible for the university's
key $700,000 annual fundraising program and served as a staff coordinator
for the university's $200 million campaign. It was her ability to
connect with current students, faculty, staff and distinguished alumni,
however, that most enabled her to foster lasting university
relationships.

In announcing the appointment Patricia Pelehach, Vice President for
Development, said "We are delighted that Jessica Tallman has joined Pratt
Institute in the position most recently held by Chantel Foretich.
Maintaining strong relations with its alumni is one of Pratt's key goals
and Jessica brings a wealth of knowledge in that area to Pratt. We are
pleased to welcome her to our team."
