WNMU has a branch campus in Deming, at the Mimbres Valley Learning and Special Events Center.
In exploring Western’s identity, officials are trying to determine what makes Western unique among the other six New Mexico universities.
An Open Forum on the identity issue will take place next Monday, February 29th, at 6 p.m. in Miller Library on the Silver City campus.
WNMU President Joseph Shepard and other university officials will share their insights and a draft document, detailing the university’s new focus areas. Those areas include public safety, rural healthcare, rural education, international relations and applied liberal arts.
The document is available to review online at http://wnmu.edu/identity.
