  • Cameron Evans Donor Experience Officer UMD

    Cameron Evans '23

    DONOR EXPERIENCE OFFICER

    Cameron Evans starts by learning each alum's Maryland story, then finds the way they most want to stay connected, whether that is giving, volunteering, or showing up on campus. Homecoming in October is his favorite tradition, with alumni back on the mall and the Terps playing football. He follows sports closely the rest of the year.

    Will Short

    DONOR EXPERIENCE OFFICER

    Will Short's favorite spot on campus is McKeldin Mall, where a busy afternoon is a reminder of who Maryland's fundraising supports. He works with alumni who are proud of their Maryland roots and want to give back to causes they believe in. Weekends usually find him somewhere new in the DMV, at a restaurant, a bookstore, or a trail.
