For the first time since 2019 the Nevada System of Higher Education Board of Regents will visit Western Nevada College for its quarterly meeting on Sept. 5 and 6.

Committee meetings precede the 13-member Board of Regents regular meeting, which starts at 12:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 5, in Carson Nugget Hall and reconvenes at 8 a.m. Friday, Sept. 6.

WNC President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe will provide an update about the college early Thursday afternoon and, afterward, he will introduce WNC Psychology Professor Dr. Rebecca Bevans for a presentation on the college's forward-thinking and progressive flexible learning program. Lauren Stevens and Tyler Golden of Academic Advising & Access are scheduled to present a student success program at 9:15 a.m. Friday. In addition, WNC Chief Human Resources Officer & Chief of Staff Melody Duley will sing the national anthem. Duley started singing in choirs at age 9 and studied vocal performance in college.

“We are honored to host the NSHE Board of Regents meeting as we move into our second week of fall classes,” WNC President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe said. “We are very proud of our college and the students that we serve, and we welcome the interim chancellor, regents and NSHE staff to our amazing campus.”
