"We thank Dr. Stein and his wife, Chrissy, for their two years of service to the University, and we wish them the best in their future endeavors. We are especially grateful for Dr. Stein's ability to reinvigorate the connection between the University and our alumni," board co-chairs Eloise Chandler and Constance Dierickx wrote in a statement."
