After graduating in December 2019, Central Methodist University alumus Layne Crump has returned to campus to take a new position as an admissions representative.
“I found a passion while working as an ambassador and seeing the excitement of the students and their families when they visited campus,” Crump said. “When the opportunity came open within Enrollment Management, it felt like a great fit and I couldn’t pass it up.”
Crump, from Ashland, previously served as a student ambassador for the Office of Admissions. He will use his knowledge of CMU to recruit prospective students from the southeast part of Missouri. He will regularly communicate with these students and their families, develop relationships with various high school representatives, and spend time traveling to college fairs and other special events.
"It is a pleasure to welcome Layne Crump to the Enrollment Management umbrella and admissions team," said Dr. Joe Parisi, vice president for enrollment management. "He comes to us with a wealth of experiences that will enrich our efforts to meet our institutional goals. He brings a deep passion for higher education, has a natural gift as a recruiter, and mirrors Central's culture by being driven by innovation and creative energy.”
In addition to working in the admissions office, Crump will serve as assistant coach for CMU’s Esports team alongside Coach Aaron Shockley.
