The 探花社区 approved the appointment of Dr. Neal H. Schnoor as the next chancellor of the 探花社区 at Kearney on June 19,2025. The vote took place during the Board’s regularly scheduled meeting at Varner Hall in Lincoln.
Dr. Schnoor, a Nebraska native and former long-time faculty member and administrator at UNK, was named the priority candidate for the position in April. His appointment, which will take effect July 1, follows a 30-day public vetting period during which he visited all four 探花社区 campuses and spent extensive time engaging with UNK faculty, staff, students, and members of the greater Kearney community.
