Gabriel joins academic affairs team

Gillian Gabriel joined the iSchool on June 3 as an office administrator - course scheduler. In this position, she will work with the Academic Affairs team to design the schedule and input it into Banner, work with Catalog Management and Section Scheduling (CMSS) to arrange classroom space, manage the final exam schedule, and coordinate with the bookstore on textbook orders.

Gabriel most recently served as the course scheduler for the Department of English and as an office manager for the Rhetoric Program. Previously, she worked as an office support associate in the Department of Statistics. Before joining the university, she was a self-employed massage therapist for twelve years.

During her free time, Gabriel enjoys reading, knitting, cooking, art journaling, going for walks, cuddling her cats, and taking naps. She plans to complete her bachelor's degree in interdisciplinary studies at Eastern Illinois University in December.

"I'm excited to learn more about the programs and to help to improve administrative processes as the iSchool grows," said Gabriel.
