The NMHU Faculty Association represents the tenured and tenure track faculty at NMHU. The NMHU FA is the sole and exclusive bargaining agent for all tenured and tenure track faculty. We recognize the NMHU Faculty Senate as our partner in protecting the governance rights of our union members. In fact, our CBA ensures that our Faculty Handbook must be followed.
