UHPA has endorsed the following candidates as of June 13, 2014.
Karl Rhoads for House District 29
As the son of a mathematics professor and an elementary school teacher, I value education very highly. While multiple factors contribute to the success of a university, financial support is very important. This is true not only for physical plant, but in terms of faculty compensation as well.
