Chief Advancement Officer Jane McNabb has resigned her
position with Shoreline Community College effective June 30, 2012.
“It has been a great experience and I’ve been fortunate to
work with wonderful people,” McNabb said. “I wish the very best for the
college, the students, faculty and staff.”
In her position, McNabb oversaw the Office of Advancement,
which includes the Public Information Office and the Shoreline Community
College Foundation. She served as Executive Director of the Foundation. Her last day on campus is set for June 22,
2012.
During her time at Shoreline, McNabb organized a
record-breaking Foundation breakfast event and spearheaded a number of grant
applications. She also launched the 1964 Society, a fundraising effort that
will culminate with the celebration of college’s 50th anniversary in
2014.
“I’m grateful for Jane’s efforts and leadership and wish her
the best,” President Lee Lambert said.
McNabb came to Shoreline from Florida where she had been
executive director of the St. Joe Community Foundation, the charitable arm of
one of Florida’s largest land developers. McNabb also served for 10 years as
executive vice president of the Florida Chamber of Commerce Foundation, a
public-policy research organization.
McNabb has also served as associate vice chancellor at
University of North Carolina at Charlotte, director of leadership gifts at
Florida State University and director of corporate and foundation relations at
Virginia Tech University.
Funding identified for McNabb’s position is being redirected
to a new position that will focus on external government relations. In
addition, the college recently added a position responsible for pursuing grants
and contracts. President Lambert has said
that with increased uncertainty around funding and policy at the state and
federal levels, the college needs to have a more consistent presence with lawmakers
as well as more aggressively pursue non-state funding sources through grants
and contracts.
