Lisa Stein has been named interim director of admissions at Chadron State College, taking over Monday from Tena Cook, the school’s interim coordinator of marketing.

College President Dr Randy Rhine says he chose Stein…a CSC staffer since 2005…because she brings “a wealth of operational experience” to the position, leaving him confident she will continue the positive direction being seen for enrollment next fall.

A Chadron High graduate and Army veteran, Stein spent 20 years in Fresno, California, working for a staffing agency before moving back to Chadron. She’s currently workin on her master’s degree at Chadron State.

Stein has been supervisor of the CSC Student Services Call Center since 2009, but began working with the CSC Recruitment Team in 2005, has been a member of the Orientation Committee since its inception in 2007, and became a Don Beebe Annual Golf Tournament committee member two years ago.

Stein says she’s excited to serve Chadron State as interim admissions director because of her family’s long ties to the school. The Stein family was one of the 2009 Alumni Family Tree Award recipients for having 3 generations and 10 family members attend the school.

Her younger brother, Chris, is the offensive coordinator for the Chadron State football team.
