THIBODAUX – Simone Harris of Thibodaux has been named associate director of the Bollinger Memorial Student Union at Ӱɴý. She will oversee the Office of Continuing Education, spearheading adult and youth non-credit programs that provide opportunities for intellectual and personal development.

“As a native of Thibodaux, I’m glad to be in a position where I can positively impact the university and the community as a whole,” Harris said. “I understand and appreciate the importance of youth enhancement through programs and event services. I enjoy experiencing the fulfillment of personal growth and seeing how it can positively inspire others, and I know I’ll get that chance in this position.”
Harris will report to Brandie Toups, director of the student union and former director of continuing education, a position that used to fall directly under the Office of Auxiliary Services before Ӱɴý implemented certain organizational restructuring.
“Simone will represent Ӱɴý well with her honed professionalism and multi-faceted organization skills,” Toups said. “I am excited to have such a strong team in the Office of Continuing Education.”
