An Army veteran and non-traditional, first-generation student, UNLV’s new vice president of student affairs has a passion for volunteering, his family, and fun with “Sneaker Thursdays.”
Rogers participated in and was a student worker in many of the same access and support programs he now leads. Over the past couple of decades, he worked his way up from being a student worker to vice president with many positions in between.
He also dedicates time as a volunteer and board member to local organizations. He chairs the Community Outreach Medical Center, which assists families without insurance. As vice chair of the Clark County Libraries, he promotes education, literacy, and growth. Through his fraternity, he mentors young minority men, helping them achieve academic and personal goals.
His ultimate goal as both VP and volunteer is to shape well-rounded, compassionate individuals, extending his impact beyond the campus.
