Spotlight on system staff: liz bolin


Liz Bolin

People make the UNT System work… and we want you to meet them.

More than 50 System staff enable the components of the UNT System — UNT at Denton, the UNT Health Sciences Center in Fort Worth, and the UNT Dallas campus — to achieve their extraordinary accomplishments in education, research and health care. These employees also drive the visions for the future, such as the proposed UNT College of Law.

This “Spotlight on System Staff” feature highlights the people that make it all work. Every two weeks you’ll meet a new staff member in this feature. Enjoy our first staff interview below.

LIZ bolin
Government Relations- Strategic Planning and Preparedness Coordinator

What does my job title really mean: I handle administrative duties, research projects, track legislative issues, and pretty much anything else that comes up.

What is my education and some past achievements: I have a BBA from UNT, and was president of the Residence Hall Association. I also studied Spanish in a language school in Granada, Spain for a year after I graduated from UNT.

What brought me to the UNT System: I was living in Austin, and heard about the position from a former supervisor at UNT. I interviewed for the position a few days later, and the rest is history.

What I like best about my job is: There are always new and challenging issues to work on because of the ever-changing legislative environment and the needs of the System.

If I ever leave work early, I can probably be found: At the dog park with my pup, Buster, or at the gym (maybe).

People would be surprised to know that I: Am a newlywed.

The most interesting thing that I've learned since working for the UNT System is: The true ins and outs of the legislative process.
