Lieutenant General Paul Eugene Stein[1] (August 30, 1944 – January 10, 2002) was the thirteenth Superintendent of the United States Air Force Academy.

Following graduation, Stein remained at the academy to begin his career as an assistant coach for the Falcons.

In addition to the Air Force Academy's education, Stein also earned an M.A.

degree in business administration from Florida State University in 1973 and graduated from the Air Command and Staff College in 1979, a national security management course in 1981, the Air War College in 1986[1] and the Program for Senior Executives in National and International Security at Harvard University in 1993.

Roughly six years after his retirement, and one year after his death, General Stein's tenure as Superintendent was scrutinized in light of the Air Force Academy sexual assault scandal.
