St. John's College
St. John's College's Santa Fe campus, established in 1964 as a twin campus to the original Annapolis, Maryland location, follows the identical Great Books curriculum at both locations, letting students study, transfer between, or split their time across either the New Mexico desert or Chesapeake Bay setting. The college's curriculum remains built entirely around direct reading and small-group seminar discussion of primary source texts spanning from ancient Greek philosophy through modern science, with no traditional majors, textbooks, or elective courses offered at either campus. St. John's Santa Fe campus, set against the dramatic backdrop of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, gives the college's distinctive academic program an equally distinctive high-desert Southwest physical setting, different from its Maryland twin's more traditional colonial New England-adjacent campus environment. The college's combination of its uniquely rigorous, universally shared Great Books curriculum and its dramatic New Mexico mountain setting has made the Santa Fe campus a distinctive choice among students specifically seeking that particular primary-text-based liberal arts approach in a Southwest desert environment.
VS
New Mexico Highlands University
New Mexico Highlands University, founded in 1893, is designated a Hispanic-Serving Institution and has built solid social work and criminal justice programs, reflecting the university's mission serving the historically underserved northern New Mexico region surrounding Las Vegas, New Mexico. The university's forestry program benefits from its location near significant national forest land, and NMHU's continued focus on serving first-generation and rural New Mexico students reflects a deliberate institutional mission distinct from the state's larger, more research-focused flagship universities. Highlands's small size and its historic campus in Las Vegas, New Mexico, a town with a well-preserved 19th-century architectural core, give the university a distinctive small-town northern New Mexico setting. The university's combination of its Hispanic-Serving Institution designation and its specific mission serving rural northern New Mexico communities has made New Mexico Highlands a distinctive regional access-focused public university within the state's higher education system.
