Drew Griffin

Drew was appointed the Associate Director for Recruitment Services at UM-St. Louis in June of 2005. He oversees the recruitment functions for the University, specifically the recruitment of First-Time Freshmen.

After receiving his Bachelor of Science in Communication in 2000, Drew went on to graduate school to acheive a Master's of Science in Education with an emphasis in Higher Education/Student Affairs. He is now working on his PhD in Higher Education Administration at UM-St. Louis.

Drew currently serves as a delegate to the National Assembly for the Missouri Association for College Admissions Counseling (MOACAC) and has served on the board since 2004. He is also a member of the National College Fair Committee within the National Association for College Admissions Counseling (NACAC).

Drew's hobbies include spending time with his wife, Tanya, attending Cardinal baseball games, playing golf or watching the latest episodes of "24", "Lost", "The Office" or "American Idol".

What is your favorite Triton sport? I am a HUGE golf fan, but I'd have to say our Roller Hockey games are exciting to watch!

What is on your iPod? I am pretty eclectic. I have everything from Mercy Me to Linkin Park. Currently I am listening to a lot of Dave Matthews and Coldplay.

What advice do you have for entering Freshmen? College is a very exciting time, but it can also be a rough transition. Don't go it alone. Make connections on campus with faculty, other students, student groups - you name it! Just get plugged in and enjoy yourself!
