CSN Pres. Richards Talks Role Of Community Colleges In Nevada

By Casey Morell
Published October 13, 2017 at 7:32 PM PDT

We're looking at higher education in Nevada, talking with the state’s community college & university presidents.

Michael Richards is president of the College of Southern Nevada, or CSN.

The community college serves just over 44,000 students at three different campuses in Clark County.

For comparison, that's just 4,000 fewer than the combined student bodies of UNR and UNLV.
