Laurie Diekoff leaves IWU Hart Career Center after 10 years

Laurie Diekhoff departed from IWU after 10 years at the Hart Career Center.

Laurie told her colleagues, “I spent 10 great years at the Career Center, enjoying my work, my colleagues, and the many relationships I have made on campus and in the community as a result of this position. Assisting students with their career development plans, helping employers fulfill their hiring needs, developing new programs, and contributing to the ongoing success of the Hart Career Center has been quite rewarding!”

We wish Laurie the best in her new adventure.
