A fixture on campus for more than four decades, Ellen Weissinger, recently retired from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, but slowing down is not on the immediate horizon. She began her tenure at Nebraska as a faculty member in health and human performance in the former Teacher’s College and concluded it in the College of Education and Human Science’s Department of Educational Administration. The emeritus senior vice chancellor of academic affairs has found a new challenge on Nebraska Innovation Campus, joining an agricultural technology startup. The North Omaha native has proven her versatility in higher education, serving Nebraska in diverse teaching, research and administrative roles across campus. As she transitions into another challenge, Weissinger shared her thoughts about a career that has left an indelible imprint on the Lincoln campus.
