Vernice Hopie Randall: handling holy things | Notes from the Quad
Vernice
Hopie Randall is an academic counselor, brand marketer, communications
specialist, budget manager, recruiter, strategist, events planner,
mentor, and spiritual director.
In other words, she is dean of admissions and financial aid for Yale Divinity School.
By the hundreds, Randall fields questions from prospective students, sifts through applications, and welcomes the new arrivals – last month, 148 students from more than 18 countries for the new academic year. “The person who sits in the deanship of admissions is a Jack or Jill of all trades and must be master of many,” she says.
“At a time when universities are looking especially hard at the bottom line, we have to learn new ways of operating in order to reach the number one goal – to bring in a new set of qualified students each year. These are students who have the top academic qualifications and a commitment to a life of service to others and a deep desire to change the world.”

Born and raised in Kingston, Jamaica, Randall received an M.Div. degree herself from YDS in 2011, then a Master of Theology degree from Princeton Theological Seminary the next year. She then came back to YDS as a lecturer in homiletics. Soon after, the dean of admissions position opened up to her. She started on an interim basis in 2012 and was named dean earlier this year.
