Rep. John Curtis, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Utah's 3rd district, recently shared insights from his visit to Southern Utah University (SUU) through a series of tweets. Curtis emphasized SUU's role in shaping the future of Utah by focusing on education and community development.
On March 19, 2025, Curtis highlighted the university's impact on the state's future: "Southern Utah University isn’t just educating students—it’s building Utah’s future." He expressed appreciation for his discussion with SUU President Mindy Benson and her team regarding rural access, workforce development, and affordability in higher education.
The following day, March 20, 2025, Curtis noted SUU's contributions to significant state initiatives: "SUU plays an important and innovative role in advancing major Utah priorities like producing geothermal energy, strengthening local communities, and managing our public lands." During his visit to the campus, he met with leaders from Outdoor Pathways and the Utah Geothermal program.
Later that day, Curtis reflected on his interactions with students at SUU: "The future runs through SUU! Enjoyed a great visit with @SUUtbirds students at the International Affairs Office and the Business School—answering their questions, hearing their ambitions, and seeing firsthand the next generation of leaders in action."
