Tabor College has named Rod Hamm as director of alumni relations.

“I am very excited to be coming back to Tabor College as the director of alumni relations,” Hamm said. “I look forward to the opportunity of connecting with alumni and friends of the college and sharing with them what is happening on our campus.”

Hamm graduated from Tabor in 1983 with a bachelor of arts in health and physical education. He worked at Tabor as an admissions counselor from 1989 to 1995, when he became a physical education and health instructor. Hamm was head women’s basketball coach from 1992 to 1995, and also coached women’s soccer and softball.

Tabor College president Jules Glanzer said Hamm is well-suited for his new role at Tabor.

“Rod has a passion to serve our alumni and help them connect to each other and the college,” Glanzer said. “He knows so many of our alums by name and has followed them in life.”

Hamm is an active member of Hillsboro Mennonite Brethren Church, Kiwanis Club, and Hillsboro Convention and Visitors Bureau. He has served as chair of Hillsboro High School Booster Club and Hillsboro High School Site Council, and as a commentator for Tabor College internet broadcasts.
