Kiem, who has led student engagement and residential life at Smith College in Northampton, UMass Amherst, and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, will begin her role at Clark on Jan. 3, according to a press release from Provost Sebastián Royo.
Kiem has held leadership roles at Fairfield University in Connecticut since 2008, with her last six years spent as associate dean of students and director of student engagement. At Fairfield, she co-lead the President’s Institutional Diversity Council and the Diversity Leadership Team.
