Hold on to instruction, do not let it go; guard it well, for it is your life. — Proverbs 4:13

Greetings from the Hill! I am proud to be joining the Shorter family and look forward to serving you.

Proverbs 4:13 reminds me that as a Christian I am called to learn daily and grow in my relationship with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ with every breath I take. My life is dedicated to serving Him and honoring Him in every thought, word and deed.

He has called me to Shorter University and it is a blessing to see a family so passionate about their alma mater!

Your Alumni Governing Board is fully invested in making this a memorable year of engaging opportunities and building a firm foundation for future success. I am honored to work closely with this group of dedicated alumni.

I look forward to meeting you and will continually strive to make your alumni experience transformational through Christ.

See you on the Hill,

Sheri H. Ransome
Director of Alumni Relations and Annual Giving
