College Coordinator

 

Bonnie Stroman


Hi, my name is Bonnie Stroman and I am the coordinator for Martel. I am a native Houstonian, married to Mike, a Rice alumnus. My oldest daughter, Lauren, and her husband, Kevin, are alums, as well. All of them were at Sid Rich College, but I love them anyway! I have two other grown children: Ben, who is married to Julia, and Allie who is married to Alex. I am a grandmother, better known as Bon-Bon, to my adorable granddaughter, Avery and grandsons, Austin, Andrew, and John and soon, James, due this September and another baby girl in February! I have two miniature piebald dachshunds that are pretty cute but, very needy. Family activities are at the center of my busy life. I enjoy cooking, entertaining, music, art, volunteering, and movies.

I love being the coordinator of the best college ever! My office is located in the Rotunda, right before you enter the Commons. Do not hesitate to come to me with any type of question! I am here to help you and the rest of the Core Team. I will often be first point of contact for various departments, faculty and staff. I work alongside student committees. I help the college run smoothly. I am the keeper of keys and mail. I can sell you a stamp, fax a document, tell you about great places to eat or shop, and have everything from scissors to Band-Aids. I love when students drop by the office for their packages, mail, and stop to say hello. I am a good listener and I can give out advice, hugs, and occasionally, a little sarcasm. I will also give you a “mom” nudge, when needed. My candy bowl in my office is always kept full, so please help yourself. I enjoy being part of your college experience! The Martel community describes itself as being a family, and I am so very happy to welcome you to our big, terrific family!
