Uhuru Adem is a Lecturer at the Jordan College of Agricultural Sciences and Technology, California State University, Fresno, within the Department of Animal Science and Agricultural Education. He returned to his alma mater in Fall 2018, revitalizing the rodeo program and guiding both men’s and women’s teams to national prominence. Under his leadership, the men’s team achieved a 13th-place finish at the College National Finals Rodeo (CNFR) in 2022, while the women’s team secured 19th nationally in the same year.
- Education: B.S. in Agricultural Business from California State University, Fresno.
Research and Professional Focus: Adem’s work centers on agricultural education, rodeo coaching, and leadership development. His contributions have strengthened Fresno State’s rodeo program, which resumed competitive success after decades of dormancy. The team claimed seven West Coast Region individual titles under his guidance, and he was recognized as the 2023 West Coast Region Coach of the Year.
Professional Achievements: Individually, Adem’s students have excelled at CNFR, including Colton Campbell’s all-around national title in 2019 and Cole Dodds’ reserve national champion honors in 2022. His own rodeo experience—qualifying twice in saddle bronc during his academic years—enriches his coaching philosophy.
