Kendall Campus Appoints Interim Honors College Director
Aurora Alonso started as the interim Honors College director at Kendall Campus on Aug. 29.
Alonso will help Honors College students with enrollment and advisement.
She replaces Cynthia Okoe, who is now the interim chairperson for the school of engineering, technology and design at Wolfson Campus.
“I’m very excited to work with honors college students and faculty,” Alonso said.
The 36-year-old started her career at Miami Dade College as an academic advisor for the school of education at Kendall Campus. In 2015, she was promoted to serve as one of nine senior academic and career advisors, a position she held until this past August.
Alonso earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology and social work in 2009 and a master’s degree in social work in 2010 both from Florida International University.
