This acquisition adds 25 units (mostly 2-bedroom) to NMC’s capacity, addressing the high demand for this type of on-campus housing.

Kudos to the 2nd Shift Custodians. After the NMC Gala event on Friday, April 5 at the Dennos Museum, the building was quite dirty with a lot of glitter and trash. The 2nd shift custodians that could spare some additional time to help came and helped clean up so one or two custodians did not have to stay late, It was awesome seeing so many work together!
Kudos to Hannah Rodriguez. Kudos to Hannah Rodrigues and the Student Success Coaches for partnering with the Experiential Learning Institute to provide a Lunch and Learn around study strategies and finishing the semester strong. Her team provided resources and study strategies to NMC students who attended the workshop.
Kudos to Brittany Hanbury. Brittany has demonstrated incredible work on her recent recruiting efforts for NMC. She has taken on additional responsibilities while covering for a colleague on leave and has done so in a truly remarkable way! Thank you, Brittany, for stepping up and keeping everything moving on time and on track! You are a true professional and NMC is so fortunate to have your talent!
