Hundt Named New Enrollment Director

Staci Hundt has been named the Enrollment Management Director at Culver Academies, effective May 1. Hundt is replacing Mike Turnbull, who retired this spring. Hundt joined the Culver Academies advancement team, which includes admissions, development, alumni affairs, and communications, as a project manager in 2017.

“Since joining Culver Academies in September, I have been impressed by the way the students, faculty, staff, and alumni exemplify the values of the school,” Hundt said. “It is a privilege to serve Culver in this capacity, and I look forward to working with our admissions team and institutional stakeholders as we develop an innovative approach to recruitment in support of Culver’s mission.”

Prior to joining the Culver staff, she served as program director for the University of Notre Dame’s Office of Outreach and Engagement Recruitment (OER) from 2014-2017 where she was responsible for implementing and assessing early recruiting strategies and programs in support of the enrollment division and the University. During her time in OER, she worked collaboratively with faculty and staff members, parents, students, and middle/high school counselors to develop an online, early outreach program.

Before transitioning to Notre Dame, Hundt served as a lead educator for Art Feeds in Joplin, Missouri, and held leadership positions in the private sector from 2008-2013. She earned her bachelor’s degree in biology from Indiana University and is a 2002 Plymouth High School graduate.

“Staci has quickly added value to the advancement team through her demonstrated ability to improve operations, team cross-functionality, and growth mindset.  We are excited for her in this new leadership role at Culver Academies”, said Dr. Jim Power. “I would also like to thank Mike Turnbull for his 16-plus years of contribution to Culver’s admission success and we wish him the best in his retirement.”
