Worcester’s Assumption University has named Brenda Hunt as its first director of ALANA (African-, Latino/Hispanic-, Asian, and Native American) and first-generation student success where she will oversee the university’s Cross-Cultural Center and facilitate access to campus resources and lead retention efforts for students of color.

“It’s essential that a community, such as ours at Assumption, consider the differences among the individuals who make up the community. The fact that we are all different is the one thing we all have in common,” said Hunt in a Tuesday press release. “My goal is to help make caring an action among students, not something that is passive.”

Most recently, Hunt served as senior associate director of the Office of Residence Life and Housing at Providence College, and before that, worked at the University of Notre Dame and Purdue University Northwest in Indiana, and the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.

Hunt earned a master’s degree in educational leadership from Eastern Michigan University and a bachelor’s degree in applied arts from Central Michigan University.
