The final candidate for the director of the Office of Equal Opportunity will visit campus Monday to host an open forum.

The open forum for Jyl Shaffer will take place from 3 to 4 p.m. Monday in 2019 Morrill Hall. While on campus, ISU students, faculty and staff will have the opportunity to speak with Shaffer to ask her about her qualifications, plans for the university and any other questions they have.

Shaffer has served as the Title IX coordinator for The University of Cincinnati’s three campuses since 2014.

Previously, she was an equal opportunity specialist/Title IX investigator at the University of Houston from 2013-2014; assistant dean of students at Reed College in Portland, Ore., from 2011-2013; and coordinator of victim services for the Vanderbilt University police department in Nashville, Tenn., from 2009-2011.

Shaffer also served as a county director for the HomeSafe domestic violence program in Gallatin, Tenn., from 2006-2009.

Shaffer earned bachelor’s degrees in history and education (2002) from Clarion University, Pa.; and a master’s degree in conflict management (2011) from Lipscomb University in Nashville.

Shaffer is the final candidate scheduled to visit campus during the search for the director. Three other candidates have visited Iowa State to host similar forums during the past several weeks.
