Retirement of Pam Wells, Director of Career Center

We are at once delighted and disheartened to announce that Ms. Pam Wells, director of Career Center, will be retiring. Ms. Wells has served the CSUSM campus community in the Career Center for close to 21 years, and is currently in her ninth year as the director. Prior to moving to the San Diego area she was the assistant director/Alumni career coordinator for Career Services at Bentley College in Waltham, MA. She received her B.F.A. in Painting and M.Ed. in Educational Psychology – Counseling from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign where she worked for many years as an academic advisor.

Pam is actively involved in professional organizations, including SANDAPT (San Diego Chapter of Association for Psychological Type) as a board member, MPACE (Mountain Pacific Association of Colleges and Employers) and recently completed two three-year terms on the board of directors of the San Marcos Chamber of Commerce.

Ms. Wells has also been actively involved on campus as a member of the Faculty Staff Associations, LAMP, Grievance Committee, Co-Curricular Implementation Team and serves as a hearing officer. She enjoys collaboration and relationship building and has contributed to the annual University Leadership Conference, the Student Affairs Professional Development Conference, and the Student Employee Professional Development Conference. Pam has served the University and set the example of what a true contributor to the campus community is all about. She will be greatly missed by the Career Center team, as well as colleagues across the university who have had the opportunity to work with her.

Ms. Wells’ last day will be Friday, Mar. 16, 2018. A farewell reception will be held to celebrate her tenure at CSUSM and the great contributions she has made to our campus on Thursday, Mar. 15 from 2 to 4 p.m. in the Kellogg Reading Room. Please join us in wishing Pam the very best as she embarks upon this new journey in her life.
