New Director for Alumni Relations
We’re thrilled to announce that Robyn (Jaenke ’88) Florian has joined Greenville University as our new Director of Alumni Relations. With her deep love for GU and our alumni community, Robyn is ideally suited to lead initiatives that bring our GU family even closer to our alma mater. In her new role, she will oversee programs that foster meaningful connections among alumni, engage current students in their “almost alumni” journey, and strengthen relationships with key churches both locally and nationally.
Our alumni play a vital role in the Greenville experience, and we are committed to serving them with intentional outreach and support. Robyn’s dedication to the university and her background as an alumna reflects Greenville’s deep commitment to alumni engagement. She will build on the valuable foundation established by our previous alumni director, Dewayne Neeley, who is now transitioning to Director of Philanthropy at Greenville University.
Robyn’s office will be located on the first floor of the Tidball Alumni House, and we look forward to the exciting plans she’ll bring to life for our community.
Please join us in welcoming Robyn to the team!
