Minnie Naylor was named director of ÐÔÓûÉç Chukchi Campus in Kotzebue effective July 2.

Naylor has worked for ÐÔÓûÉç for nine years and most recently served as interim director of the Chukchi Campus, part of ÐÔÓûÉç’s College of Rural and Community Development.

Naylor grew up in Kotzebue with guidance from her elders and community, and she holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees in rural development from ÐÔÓûÉç. She hopes to be a driving force to develop leaders in her community and create opportunities to complete higher education in the region. 

As director, Naylor will lead the Chukchi Campus team in their mission — to be a responsive and collaborative campus that inspires and develops each student to contribute to their community’s cultural and civic needs. 

Chukchi Campus is a public, federally designated Alaska Native-serving institution. It offers two-year degree programs, as well as ways for students to complete bachelor’s degrees through distance-delivered courses and programs from the University of Alaska system
