Removal of The New Mexico Military Institute Board of Regents

Result:
Due to the pressure put upon the Board of Regents by this petition and other influences by concerned alumni of NMMI, 2 positions on the Board of Regents have been vacated. Due to the fact that the positions vacated were two of the primary "negative forces" on this board, I feel our work is done. I consider the leverage this petition wielded to be a victory. My thanks to the hundreds of you that viewed it, and discussed it. I also thank you that supported my by signing.

We, the undersigned, call on the Supreme Court of the State of New Mexico, to invoke Article 12, Section 13, paragraph D, of the constitution of New Mexico, and remove the entire Board of Regents for New Mexico Military Institute.

The board has failed to meet the standards required by State Article 12, Section 21-12-3, by allowing student attrition to escalate yearly, and by allowing academic test scores to become lower than like institutions, and allegations of: Incompetence; Neglect of Duty; and Malfeasance.

This petition is now closed.
