Krista Rodin, associate vice president and campus executive officer of NAU-Yuma, and Nick Lund, who served as executive director of NAU-Yuma for 11 years, helped kick off the campus’ 20th anniversary celebration at a community block party on Feb. 22.

“The support we’ve received from the Yuma area over the past 20 years is nothing short of phenomenal, and we are looking forward to the next 20 years,” Rodin said.

NAU-Yuma has been serving the southwestern Arizona and southeastern California communities since 1988. NAU-Yuma’s partnerships with Arizona Western College and Imperial Valley College provide students a direct path to complete four-year professional degree programs.

NAU-Yuma offers undergraduate and graduate courses in a growing number of fields, including biology, business, criminal justice, education, environmental science, nursing, psychology, sociology, social work and Spanish.
