WELCOME BACK!
Have you made New Year’s resolutions? Have you decided to change your life in anyway?
Hopefully you have all made a resolution to get the best NHU has to offer you and to give back in some way.
This is the best moment to look back on accomplishments and challenges. Take the accomplishments and make them your guideline. Take the challenges and find better ways of turning them into an accomplishment.
Proof of those who have done this are members of our Familia, Dr. Menezes, Dr. Navarro, Dr. Johnson, Prof. Espinoza and ‘Scape’ Martinez. They were published!
Congratulations! You are true models for us all!
Maybe you won’t publish a book or be famous in other ways, but you can touch someone’s life with your example.
Go out and change someone’s life! In the process you just might change yours!
Have a wonderful 2009!
President’s Office

We are excited to welcome the WASC visiting team to NHU to showcase our programs and ongoing improvement process.
NHU Familia keeps growing!
It is with great pleasure that we welcome a new faculty member: Dr. Yazmin Rosa-Bauza. Dr. Rosa-Bauza assumed the Chair of the Mathematics and Science Department on Monday, January 5th. Dr. Yazmin Rosa-Bauza is an organic chemist with a Ph.D. from the Department of Chemistry at UC Berkeley. Her dissertation focused on the development of chemical tools to monitor the activity of cancer-related proteases. Dr. Rosa-Bauza is a native of Puerto Rico where she attended school before going to Berkeley. Dr. Rosa-Bauza stood out to the selection committee not simply because of her sterling credentials as a scientist but also because she showed the passion for educating our students. She is a wonderful addition to our Familia. Please take a moment to drop by her cubicle in the faculty area and give her a warm welcome.
Please note: Michael Mooney remains as Chair of Computer Science, which will again be a separate department.
