Theresa Eshbach to retire as Bethany's executive director of Institutional Advancement.

Theresa C. Eshbach has announced her retirement as executive director of Institutional Advancement at Bethany Theological Seminary in Richmond, Ind., effective July 2004. She has been directing the school's work in institutional advancement since January 1993.

During her 11 years at Bethany, Eshbach also was part of the leadership team that orchestrated the school's relocation from Illinois and aided its financial recovery from several years of difficult budgets. She oversaw an office that is responsible for financial development, deferred and major giving, alumni/ae and congregational relations, and, for a significant period of time, student recruitment and development.

During her service, she strengthened her work through an education program that led, in 1999, to certification as a Fund Raising Executive.
