Did you see? Congratulations to Tony Marin!

Tony Marin, assistant vice president of Student Affairs, will receive this year’s Ralph B. Crouch Memorial Award for his contributions to New Mexico State University.

The Crouch Award recognizes a staff member that has shown outstanding contributions to the life of the university community. Marin will receive the award during NMSU’s Employee Appreciation Picnic from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, Oct 31 at Preciado Park.  

“I am honored to receive this recognition of service to New Mexico State University,” Marin said. “There are numerous staff and faculty colleagues across campus that are deserving of this award, so I am humbled to have been selected for the Ralph B. Crouch Award.”

A two-time NMSU graduate, Marin has been employed with NMSU since 2001 and has held several positions. In his current role, he oversees departments such as the Student Success Center, Campus Tutoring Services, Office of Experiential Learning, Center for Academic Advising and Student Support, TRIO Educational Talent Search, three TRIO Upward Bound Programs, two TRIO Student Support Services STEM-H and Classic, and subset units designed to support student success and social mobility.

In addition to his administrative responsibilities, Marin has demonstrated a persistent commitment to increase external funding. He has secured more than $35 million in funding for NMSU.

Marin’s favorite thing about working at NMSU is working with students and colleagues to provide essential access and support services necessary for student success.
