Hull, Pridgin selected to lead university programs

University of the Ozarks has announced that Brian Hull has been named director of admission and Reba Pridgin has been named interim director of development, effective July 1.

The announcements follow the recent resignations of Brandy Cox as director of development and Chad Cox as director of admission to pursue other opportunities.

Hull has worked in the University’s Student Life Office since graduating from Ozarks in 2002. He most recently served as director of student activities. He will continue to coach the University’s cross country teams, which he has done since 2008. Hull earned a master’s degree in college student personnel from Arkansas Tech University in 2007.

Pridgin, a 1981 Ozarks graduate, has served in numerous roles in the Advancement Office since 2001, including director of alumni relations, director of development and director of planned giving.

Brandy (Rhodes) Cox, a 1999 Ozarks graduate, will assume her new duties in late July as senior director of development for university programs at Oklahoma State University. She started in the Advancement office in 2005 as director of alumni relations and moved to director of development in 2011. Her husband, Chad, also a 1999 Ozarks graduate, has worked in the Ozarks Admission Office since 2006.
