The Salt Lake Tribune -- Nevada Snags UVSC's Romesburg

"I absolutely love this place. As exciting as this job in Nevada will be, I can't imagine ever working at a place as professionally rewarding as this," he said.

Since taking the helm in July 1988, Romesburg has transformed UVSC from a two-year technical school to a state college that offers about 23 bachelor's degrees. Enrollment has more than tripled and the campus has doubled in size under his watch.
