 Dr.
Jordan Accepts Director Position at Sinclair Community College
Long-time BCW member and supporter, Katrina Jordan has accepted the position
of Director of the Career Planning and Placement Center
at Sinclair Community College in Dayton, Ohio, effective February 1, 2002.
Katrina leaves her position at the Career Development Center at the
University of Cincinnati, where she was Associate Director for nearly
16. Katrina earned her doctorate from UC while working full time, despite being
a single Mother of two children, and while holding a leadership
position in a professional association. With all of these
responsibilities, Katrina still made time for BCW, serving as committee
chairperson and as a workshop presenter.
Katrina moves to her new position with strong management
experience and a record of success. She has managed a comprehensive on-campus recruiting
function involving over 300 employers annually, has hired, trained and
supervised staff, and has successfully coordinated annual staff retreats and
employer development activities contributing to her former office's growth
and achievements.
Katrina Jordan has enjoyed a national reputation by collaborating on
several ambitious projects including a three-year longitudinal
research study on the "College To Career Transitions of African
American Students," involving 13 colleges and universities, which
has been published in the Journal of Career Planning and Employment.
Katrina has also contributed to the Senior Year Experience textbook,
published by Jossey-Bass. By effectively co-presenting at several
national conferences on the recruitment of minorities, Katrina
helped her former office to gain national credibility opening the door to
the successful implementation of a Multiethnic Recruitment & Training
Institute for employers nationally, which was successfully
implemented for eight years.
BCW encourages women in the Dayton, Ohio area to welcome our
"Dr. J" to their community, as BCW welcomes Dayton's former City
Manager, Valerie Lemmie, as she takes on the challenging job of
becoming Cincinnati's first black woman City Manager.
Black career women are continuing to make important career strides
across the U.S., despite a faltering economy and the continuing
existence of a "glass ceiling" for women in general and a
"concerete ceiling" for women of color.
BCW is anxious to continue to recognize such career achievements
among our women nationwide. You too can be saluted on our
website. Simply send your professional headshot and professional
profile electronically. Of course, first priority goes to BCW members
and contributors!
