MADISON, Wis., March 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Herzing University has announced the appointment of Dr. Jeff Hill as president of its Madison campus, where the healthcare-focused university has offered a variety of career-oriented programs for 50 years. In his new role as Regional Campus President, Hill ? who started as Kenosha Campus President in 2016 ? will direct all operations for Herzing's Madison and Kenosha campuses.

In Madison, Hill will focus on initiatives designed to enhance student experience, retention and graduation outcomes.
