Tom McHughAlumni and Staff
I joined the Registrar's Office team at Gustavus in June 2025. Our staff serves the campus community in a variety of ways, including stewardship of student academic records, academic policies and procedures, curriculum records, course and academic space scheduling, transcripts, enrollment verifications, commencement, degree audits, course registration, and more.
Before becomming Registrar, I served Gustavus as the Director of the Academic Support Center (ASC) from 2017 to 2025. In that role, I provided leadership for the center and its staff, partnered with campus colleagues to plan and execute new student registration (including our amazing Gustie Gear-Up! event), and worked together with talented professionals to promote college-wide academic support, advising, and retention efforts.
Prior to my work in the ASC, I served the Gustavus Admission Office from 2003 to 2017, spending my final years as Senior Associate Dean of Admission. The years that I spent recruiting future Gusties among a dedicated admission team (including my personal hero, Mark H. Anderson '66) helped lay the foundation for my professional career.
Wherever you are in your Gustavus journey, please let me know how I can help. Go Gusties!
