Michael Harwood named AVP Student Success

Vice President for Enrollment Management and Student Affairs Brenda Amenson-Hill has announced that Michael Harwood will join MSUM in a new position starting June 4. The position, Associate Vice President Student Success, was created to provide leadership for retention, persistence, completion and success initiatives

Harwood previously held positions at NDSU, UND and MSU Mankato. He most recently served as NDSU’s AVP and Assistant Dean of Student Life.
