The HR team features a department in our digital magazine, HR Buzz, through a series titled, “Spotlight on.” The Spotlight series strives to be an engaging and inclusive avenue to support our sense of community.
This is a great opportunity to showcase the personalities and unique qualities to be found all around our campus. Interested departments/units are invited to participate in drafting the article. Visit https://hr.kzoo.edu/spotlight-on/ to learn more and shine a Spotlight on you!

Your Campus Safety group is here for you and we enjoy being a part of this great Campus Community we call “K.”
The Office of Admission has 17 members, but… the ENTIRE campus is on the Admission team.
Of the entire Office of Admission, Suzanne Lepley has the longest time at K with 22 years.
The Admission team describes itself as Oozing Hornet Pride!
Our Assistant Director, Marcus Johnson, is a Veteran having served active duty in Iraq.
We have more fur-babies than human babies among the team.
Operation Manager, Teresa Fiocchi, is an award-winning chef.
The Admission office typically (pre-COVID) hosts close to 800 visitors in a year.
Three times per year, the Admission team hosts 100 students in the residence halls overnight for our Visit the Zoo program.
In 2019, we traveled to 37 states and 17 countries for recruitment.
We absolutely cannot do this work alone! Every member of the College community is a member of the recruitment team. If a family is on a tour and they hear friendly chatter and laughter and see smiles as they walk around campus, they are more likely to choose K. A simple “hello” can make the difference in a student coming here or going elsewhere. Especially right now! The weeks leading up to May 1 (the national deadline for choosing a college) are the most critical in our work.
