"New assistant director comes from Purdue"

"When Jamie Ruark, assistant director of Alumni Relations, began searching for a job last year, Oakland University was at the top of her list. With marriage around the corner and a fiance living in the Detroit area, she was ready to leave her position at Purdue University. After graduating with a master's degree in higher education from Purdue, Ruark worked there for two years as assistant director of alumni clubs and young alumni."
