Hello Hendrix faculty and staff,

 

I am pleased to welcome Rob O?Connor to the College Relations team as Director of College Communications for Hendrix. 

 

Rob is a familiar face on campus. Since 2006, he has served the College as Director of Foundation Relations. He is an experienced writer, reporter and editor who worked at Arkansas Business and the North Little Rock Times, and was on the staff of the Log Cabin Democrat for three years before returning to Hendrix, where he worked as an Admission Counselor for a year after graduation. Rob also spent three years in the classroom as a social studies teacher at Central High School in Little Rock. He earned a bachelor?s degree in history from Hendrix in 1995 and a master?s degree in professional and technical writing from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2009.

 

Rob is filling the position left vacant when Mark Scott left Hendrix at the end of August to become Executive Director of Communications at Northwest Arkansas Community College in Rogers. Many of you may have worked with Mark to publicize college events and programs or to prepare for media interviews. 

 

Please contact Rob (ext. 1462, cell: 501-626-3042, or o?connor@hendrix.edu) for media relations or campus communications assistance.
