Meet the Team
We’re here to walk alongside you during your time at Chadron State
Jeff & Jolene Gouldie, Chadron State, Campus Director
Jeff and Jolene moved to Chadron with their 5 kids to start Campus Ventures at Chadron State in the summer of 2021. After college Jeff lived overseas for 2 years in Asia. Jeff & Jolene met in Fort Worth, Texas, where they both attended graduate school and were married in 2006. Working at Starbucks before and after graduate school turned Jeff into a bit of a coffee snob, while helping to pay the bills. Jolene utilizes her education as a teacher to homeschool the kids. Before joining Campus Ventures, Jeff worked in business doing sales and marketing for an internet startup and consulting company for 13 years. Jolene embraces the chaos of managing the house, teaching the kids (at home and through their homeschool community), and meeting with CV women. The Gouldie’s moved to Laramie with their 5 kids to join the staff at the University of Wyoming in the fall of 2018.
Beulah Black Cloud, Chadron State, Associate Staff
Beulah got plugged into CV during her freshman year at BHSU in 2018. Her involvement in CV impacted her relationship with Jesus and with others. She caught a vision of helping other college students, like herself, come to know and love Jesus.
Beulah graduated in May of 2023 and has joined as an intern at Chadron State College in Nebraska. As she begins her second year, she’s excited to see God’s work in the lives of the students. Beulah loves hanging out with friends, drinking coffee, and playing games.
Jacob Haertel, Chadron State, Associate Staff
Jacob is an intern at Chadron State College. He has been a part of Campus Ventures at Chadron State College as a student since 2021.
Originally from Hot Springs, SD, Jacob is the son of Pat and Kim Haertel, and the oldest of 6 siblings, including four sisters and one brother. His family instilled Biblical values into his life from a young age, and during high school he made a personal commitment to follow Christ.
As a music education student at Chadron State, Jacob was a founding member of Campus Ventures, and gained a passion for discipleship and student ministry. After graduating in 2024, he chose to follow God’s call to continue serving in Chadron, now as an intern with Campus Ventures.
