The Professional Registry Commission, with endorsement from the NIRSA Board of Directors, is excited to announce that April Flint, Assistant Director of Athletics for Recreation at Emory University, will fill the 3-year At-Large position for 2014-2017.

The Commission reviewed a highly qualified pool of applicants for this position. They responded to each application using a rubric, while remaining cognizant of other leadership responsibilities the applicants may already have.
In addition to a demonstrated investment in the importance of continuing education and relevancy to the membership, April is an established veteran in collegiate recreation with strong academic credentials, including a PhD in Educational Leadership. She has a clear understanding of the value of the RCRSP designation and a desire to see the Registry grow, in addition to a grasping of the importance of standards of education within the profession, including the use of core competencies as a guide for ongoing education. The Registry, and NIRSA as a whole, will no doubt benefit from April’s insights and leadership.
Welcome to the Professional Registry Commission, April!
