Patricia McGregor
Registrar
After more than seven years as
registrar at the University of Wisconsin Colleges, where she
recently oversaw the transition to PeopleSoft software for
student records and was responsible for the administrative
services of 13 campuses plus an online program, Patty McGregor
was ready for a change. A small liberal arts college was just
what she was looking for. “I got into education because I
wanted to work with students,” she says. “At Wisconsin, I was
stuck in an office and had very little face-to-face
interaction with anyone. Almost everything was done via e-mail
and telephone; it was very impersonal. I’m looking forward to
working with everyone at Trinity and being part of the campus
community.”
McGregor says that she didn’t intend to become a registrar,
but that circumstances pushed her in that direction. Although
she grew up on the campus of the University of Wisconsin-Eau
Claire—both her parents worked there—she had set her sights on
a career in international business. “Nobody grows up thinking
that they’re going to be a registrar,” she laughs. “It just
doesn’t happen. I worked in the graduate studies office when I
was a student at Eau Claire, doing registrations, degree
checks, and things like that. Shortly after I got my master’s
degree, the stock market crashed and the job market dried up.
So I took a temporary job working on a new add/drop
registration system, and I liked it. I remember that my father
sort of smiled and, the next day, brought home the Chronicle
of Higher Education. I’ve been at it ever since.”
Prior to her position at the University of Wisconsin Colleges,
McGregor was registrar at Marian College in Fond du Lac,
Wisconsin, and assistant registrar at the University of Tampa.
She holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of Wisconsin
and a master’s in international business studies from the
University of South Carolina. An avid knitter, McGregor also
likes to travel and read mystery novels in her free time.
