Good afternoon NMC Community,
Our college, like many in our state, has faced declining enrollment. In just the last five years, our enrollment has declined by more than 20%. In an effort to help balance the budget for next year, that currently has a $1.9 million deficit, limit the tuition impact for our students and balance work load, departments college wide have been looking for ways to save money and create efficiencies.

Part I of a coming series
I’m compelled to write to you after what I believe was an ill-informed Forum article in the Record Eagle on July 4, 2015.
First, let me thank the taxpayers of Grand Traverse County and the State of Michigan for supporting Northwestern Michigan College over its 64 year history. Next, thank you to the tens of thousands of learners who have chosen to experience NMC. And lastly, I want to thank all the staff and faculty who have dedicated their energy and passion to changing lives and building our community. (more…)

Dear NMC Community,
This is an update to let you know that we will no longer be investigating a partnership with EDUStaff.
Last week on May 20, the Michigan House of Representatives passed House Bill 4052 which if fully adopted could significantly change the relationship NMC would have with adjunct faculty or supplemental staff employed through EDUStaff. I am not interested in pursuing an approach where NMC could not set wages, conditions of employment, evaluation, and provide professional development resources as it currently does. It appears this legislation could prohibit this. (more…)
