Dear Campus Community:
We are pleased to announce that the job posting for the President of New Mexico Highlands University is now live at the RH Perry website, and we are currently accepting applications through Friday October 30th. Please share the link and encourage qualified applicants to apply: https://rhperry.com/nmhu_president/#1634320092963-dca37535-683a. RH Perry will also be widely advertising the position so that we can attract a robust applicant pool.
I would like to thank the members of our presidential search committee, the RH Perry team, and our Board of Regents for all their hard work in drafting, commenting on, and approving this profile. I’d also like to thank the campus community for their spirited input during our forums: many great ideas were brought up that helped us shape this profile. There is a Spanish version of the profile in order to recognize the importance of the culture that is part of, and surrounds, NMHU.
We look forward to our next steps in the process, which will be ranking the applications and then selecting 10 semi-finalists for interviews in Albuquerque during the middle part of November. From those 10 semifinalists, 5 finalists will be invited to NMHU for full campus visits, and we are still on track to have those visits during the last week of November and the first week of December. During that visit, there will be numerous forums so the campus community can meet the candidates, ask questions, and then provide feedback through surveys.
Once again, the position can be found on the RH Perry website at https://rhperry.com/nmhu_president/#1634320092963-dca37535-683a, and we will also post this link on our Presidential Search website, at https://www.nmhu.edu/presidential-search/.
Best,
Brandon Kempner
Chair, NMHU Presidential Search Committee
