The Rainbow Center has some exciting news to share with the campus community!  In February 2019 the RC launched a search for its first full-time Rainbow Center Coordinator.  On-campus interviews for finalists were held in early May.  The search was remarkably competitive.  It is my pleasure to announce that Julia Anderson (she/her/hers) was offered the position and recently accepted.  She began her role as Rainbow Center Coordinator on June 21.  Julia brings a high level of expertise, facilitation, and dedication to the work and we are excited to have her as part of the Rainbow Center team.  Julia is a 2018 UConn HESA alum and previously served in a temporary programming role for the Rainbow Center for the past year.  Julia’s favorite part of her job is the personal connections she is able to make with students and colleagues at UConn. She will continue to oversee the FYE class taught in the Rainbow Center, the FAMILEE mentoring program, and the Rainbow Center’s training programs, among other things.
