Today, the NU System named Dr. Neal H. Schnoor as the priority candidate for chancellor of @UNKearney.
Dr. Schnoor’s deep roots in Nebraska and impressive record of strategic leadership make him exceptionally well-suited to serve as UNK’s next chancellor. I look forward to the UNK and Kearney community—and others across the state—getting to know him better during his 30-day vetting period.
