Housing and Residential Education has new director


Christopher A. Payne has been named director of Housing and Residential Education. He started the job Aug. 1.

Dean L. Bresciani, the associate vice chancellor for student services, said Payne brings to Carolina a long record of scholarly research and broad administrative experience in both academic and business settings that will enable him to refine and strengthen educational programs for students.

Payne had been serving as the director of housing operations at the University of Denver. He has more than 11 years of post-masters degree experience in student affairs and more than 17 years of experience in university administration.

He earned his doctorate in college student personnel at the University of Northern Colorado, a master's in education from the University of Wisconsin-Platteville and a bachelor's in psychology from Colorado State University.

Payne has said his housing philosophy seeks to balance the fundamental duty of providing safe and well-maintained facilities with the challenge of fostering a living-learning community furthering the educational mission.
