WHERE MO STANDS
In District 5, college isn’t an abstract issue — it’s personal. Mo Denis is running for Regent to make sure higher education works for every student it serves.
01 — Affordability
Mo will fight against unnecessary tuition hikes and make sure Nevada Promise helps students graduate — not just enroll. Getting in is only the first step.
02 — Student Support
Books. Advising. Emergency grants. Mental health resources. Mo will push the Board to invest in the wraparound support that turns enrollment into graduation.
03 — Workforce
Nevada’s economy is growing. Mo will align NSHE programs with high-demand industries — healthcare, clean energy, construction, and technology — so graduates have real opportunities.
04 — Accountability
The Board oversees a $2 billion system. Nevada families deserve open budgets, measurable outcomes, and a board that answers to students — not just administrators.

More on issues →Nevada Promise has been a game-changer — covering tuition at community colleges like CSN and giving thousands of District 5 students their first shot at higher education.
But getting in is only the first step. Mo Denis will work to expand what Nevada Promise started, filling the gaps that still push students out before they finish.
Support beyond tuition. Expand textbook assistance, emergency grants, and student services so financial barriers don’t force students to drop out.
Improve access and awareness. Make sure more students and families know about Nevada Promise and can complete FAFSA before the deadline.
Flexible pathways for working students. Scheduling and support that accounts for students balancing school, jobs, and family.
Strengthen CSN-to-UNLV transfers. One system should work like one system — no lost credits, no lost time, no lost money.
“Getting into college is only the first step. We need to help students finish.”
