CHADRON – Dr. Ryan Morgan, Dean of Business, Mathematics, and Natural Sciences has been named to the Nebraska Board of Geologists.
He was nominated by Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Jim Powell and Nebraska State College System Chancellor Paul D. Turman. His nomination was approved through the Lieutenant Governor’s office after a review of his credentials. His term began in January and will end in February 2028.
“I have spent my career straddling the wonders of my discipline and working as an administrator in higher education. I am happy to be able to represent our experiences to the state,” he said.
Morgan said as a representative for academics, he will work to ensure that CSC’s curriculum in geosciences aligns with the expectations of the board.
“My hope is to work as a liaison to ensure our issues are represented well and ensure more collaboration between the private and public sectors,” Morgan said.
Morgan hopes to eventually host geology-related events at CSC.
“I would love to have the board visit the pretty side of the state and see what we have to offer from an educational and natural beauty perspective,” he said.
