Lambert appointed Assistant Administrator
Daette Lambert will become Assistant Administrator on a part-time basis, effective July 15. A summa cum laude BA and MA honors graduate of Truman State University, she brings six years of experience in educational administration. That experience includes two years at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business as Information Officer for the PhD Program office and two separate tenures at Truman State University as Staff Assistant to the Provost and, most recently, as Admissions Counselor for Transfer Programs. She also brings familiarity with DDH’s mission and students from her participation in its programs with spouse Mark Lambert, who has just finished his first year of PhD work as a House Scholar.
The term position coincides with Kris Culp’s grant from the Enhancing Life Project, which funds the dean's partial release time from July 1, 2015 - August 31, 2017 and thereby makes funding available for staff coverage. Ms. Lambert will work closely with the dean and with Administrator Marsha Peeler to undergird ongoing work and special projects.
