Jon Stuckey arrived at °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ in 2000 to launch and direct the Grants Office after working as a medical research sociologist for 10 years at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. He became the Director of Development at °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ University in September 2007 and has served as Vice President for Advancement since January 2023. The Advancement Division is responsible for securing gift support for scholarships, buildings, and programs; for engaging alumni, parents, and friends in the life of °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ; and for telling the °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ story locally, regionally, and nationally. We do this through the offices of Development, Alumni and Parent Relations, and Marketing and Communications. Jon feels it is an incredible privilege to work at °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ University, where we seek to make “Christ Preeminent” in all that we do. Jon also has a faculty appointment in the Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Criminal Justice.
