Southern Nazarene University issued the following announcement.
The Board of Trustees of Southern Nazarene University recently met virtually to conduct its Fall business meetings. A highlight of the plenary session was the re-election of Dr. Keith Newman as president of SNU. Board Chair, Dr. Terry Rowland, reported the continuation of Dr. Newman’s leadership, saying, “It’s with great joy I announce that we have unanimously re-elected Dr. Keith Newman to a five-year term.” “During our intensive vetting process three and one-half years ago, we felt the leadership of the
Holy Spirit guiding us to Dr. Newman, and these years have indeed proven to be divinely led,” he stated.
In casting their vote of confidence, the Trustees noted that Dr. Newman had shown extreme sensitivity, strong spiritual guidance and great wisdom in his leadership, especially during this year of crisis, and fully trusted that these qualities would continue to be evidenced in him, regardless of what may take place in the future.
From President Newman: “SNU’s mission to make Christlike disciples remains our priority. I am grateful for the continued privilege of serving with a community so committed to
a purposefully different educational experience. Character, Culture, and Christ is much more than our motto, it is our calling.”
Dr. Rowland concluded, “Let’s join together in prayer for our beloved Southern Nazarene University and for Dr. Keith Newman, asking God for His blessing on him as he leads.”
