Salve Regina University Promotes Lynne Mello and Michael Pimental to Vice President Roles

Providence New Bedford, RI, October 14, 2026 —

Salve Regina University has promoted Lynne Mello to Vice President for Marketing and Communications and Michael Pimental to Vice President for Institutional Affairs, according to the information provided about the university’s personnel changes.

The summary identifies the two promotions and their corresponding titles but does not provide additional details about when they take effect. It also does not state what positions Mello or Pimental previously held, outline their responsibilities in the new roles, or explain the circumstances behind the changes.

No further information was provided about the scope of either vice president’s portfolio, whether the promotions are part of a broader leadership change, or whether the university announced other appointments. The information also does not include statements from the university or from Mello and Pimental.

The available details therefore establish the names and titles associated with the promotions, but leave unanswered questions about timing and role responsibilities. No additional context about the university’s plans for its marketing and communications work or institutional affairs was included in the summary.
