A "Dip" herself, Julie joined the Office of Admission in the fall of 2005. In her Fummer days, Julie was a member of the College's first women's rugby team. However, after breaking her nose during a game she reconsidered her dedication to athleticism. Julie's employment in the Office of Admission coincided with her children's own college searches. Struck by the sometimes impersonal or overwhelming feel of college visits and endeavors, Julie was eager to join the warm and accessible Office of Admission at her alma mater. In addition to serving as the Office's Director, Julie enjoys working with the Alumni and Development teams, and overseeing publications for Admissions.

Prior to his new post, Dom spent twelve years as an IT professional and has extensive experience coaching and recruiting football student-athletes. Dom’s most prized memories are of the warm and caring people at F&M and is thrilled to be able to be a part of the school that has uncovered the world to him.
