Welcome to Chadron State College! This virtual tour is intended to show you around campus and help you learn about residence halls, student services, academic departments, and a little history of the college. We hope you enjoy the tour.
Crites Hall (1937)
This is Crites Hall, our one-stop shop for Student Services. The START Office handles financial aid, schedule changes, class registration and major changes.

You'll also find the Housing Office, which oversees the residence halls. The Admissions Office is also found in Crites Hall.
Old Admin (1911)
Old Admin was the first official building on campus and took three phases to complete—the center was built first in 1911, and the east and west wings were added as more space was needed. In the beginning, Old Admin housed all campus offices, classrooms, a small dormitory and cafeteria. Old Admin was recently renovated in 2009, and now houses classrooms and offices of Education, English & Humanities, Communication, Social Sciences and Justice Studies departments. A mock courtroom and forensics lab are available for Justice Studies students. The Eagle, CSC's student newspaper, can also be found in Old Admin.

Before Armstrong Gym was built, the site was home to CSC's farm. In the early years, most of what was grown on this site was used in the cafeteria, and many students earned money working at the farm. A barn stood here until 1961, when it was removed for the new building.
