UNM-LA News:

Recently elected and re-elected UNM-Los Alamos (UNM-LA) Advisory Board members Laura Burrows and Stephen Boerigter were sworn into their advisory board membership by Los Alamos Municipal Judge Elizabeth Allen at the Jan. 13 board meeting.

The board is composed of five members elected by the registered voters of Los Alamos County. Positions are four-year terms with elections every two years.

Other advisory board members include Michelle Hall, Sheila Schiferl and David Sutton.

Following the swearing in ceremony, Boerigter was re-elected board chair and Sutton re-elected board secretary. 

The UNM-LA Advisory Board acts in an advisory capacity, while the UNM Board of Regents is the governing board for the Los Alamos campus. By state law, the advisory board approves the annual budget for UNM-LA for recommendation to the Board of Regents and provides approval and certification for the tax levy to Los Alamos County. 

Per the bylaws, regular meetings of the Advisory Board are scheduled at 5:30 p.m., the Monday preceding the second Tuesday of each odd calendar month (except July) at the Branch Campus, unless otherwise directed by the chairperson of the Advisory Board.

In compliance with the New Mexico Open Meetings Act, meetings are announced in advance through newspapers or other appropriate means, giving the date, time and place, as well as major topics scheduled for discussion. 

UNM-Los Alamos is an innovative, rigorous, and affordable comprehensive branch community college that provides foundations for transfer, leading-edge career programs, and lifelong learning opportunities. More information about UNM-LA is available at losalamos.unm.edu.
