Monday, August 22 & Tuesday, August 23<\/h3>\n\n\n\nChrissy Holliday, Ph.D., is the senior system liaison for rural education and workforce development at Colorado State University Pueblo. Prior to accepting this position focused on increasing access to higher education for residents of Colorado leveraging the resources of the CSU system, she served as Pueblo\u2019s vice president of enrollment management, communication and student affairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holliday believes strongly in her responsibility as a leader to advocate for her team and find ways to reasonably align their work with larger institutional strategy. She is committed to enhancing access to higher education for students from traditionally underrepresented populations, including students of color and first-generation students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A first-generation college student herself, Holliday holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in mass communication from Campbell University, a master\u2019s degree in education with a specialization in enrollment management from Capella University, and a Ph.D. in education and human resource studies\/higher education leadership from Colorado State University. Her research and related publications focus on the college-going culture development of first-generation college students, which mirrors her access orientation in her daily work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nJose Cantu, PhD<\/strong>
Tuesday, August 30 & Wednesday, August 31<\/h3>\n\n\n\nJose Cantu brings 29 years of successful higher education experience in recruitment operations, admissions processing, financial aid, registrar and records, campus solutions, marketing and communications, new student orientation, international programs, first year campuses and instruction, and student success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cantu\u2019s passion stems from his own personal college journey as a first-generation college student that had no guidance or direction. Once graduating from University of Houston in 1995, he began his first job as a recruiter and learned quickly that he wasn\u2019t the only one who experienced these impacts. This led to ultimately making his passion into a career dedicated in improving and supporting all students from the recruitment cycle through graduation. There are many elements to the successes he has brought to each university with enrollment growth that have led to various promotions and administrative leadership roles that include being the inaugural Vice President for Enrollment Management at University of Houston-Victoria, Vice President for Strategic Partnerships at New Reach Media, Vice President for Enrollment Services at Schreiner University, Director of Admissions and Recruitment at University of Houston-Downtown, and the Associate Director of Transfer Admissions at University of Houston. Much of his success also comes from his experience in working at Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI) and Minority Serving Institutions (MSI) giving way for programming that supports students from all walks of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a progressive leader who believes that dynamic teams are the success of an organization, Cantu also has a proven record in creating, developing, and training high performing teams and leaders. He fosters and maintains collaborative, engaged, and transparent relationships with all those around him. He is an experienced systems user when it comes to integrating, shifting, and finding solutions through technology by streamlining, upgrading, and creating platforms that serve to support current and future trends. He is also exceptional team player who is committed to support the overall efforts of engaging community, increasing visibility, and building more prominence for the university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cantu has been involved in countless higher education organizations, served in several committees, presented at various workshops, and taught a few college courses. In addition, he believes it is important to contribute time to community service organizations and has been part of many as a member or in a leadership role. Cantu has been honored with several leadership awards, served as keynote speaker for events, and has worked with external organizations by facilitating team building and leadership development workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cantu graduated from University of Houston with a bachelor\u2019s degree in Information Systems Technology and master\u2019s degree in Training and Development. He continued his academic journey and graduated from Our Lady of the Lake University with a Ph.D. in Leadership Studies. Cantu\u2019s research specializes in the psychology of personalities that impact leaders and their work outcomes. His dissertation concentrated and included leaders within the enrollment management industry: A study of Chief Enrollment Officer\u2019s personality styles and the impact to student enrollment. He administered the Big 5 Personalities test and found correlations between personalities, among other variables, that impacted a leader\u2019s enrollment success within their job. He is a firm believer that people should always find a passion outside of work that will enable them to become a more balanced person and give back to our communities as much as possible. His favorite quote is “An enthusiast may bore others, but he never has a dull moment himself.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
