NMC named one of America’s Top Military-Friendly Colleges and Universities
I would like to extend my sincerest gratitude to our NMC leadership, faculty and staff for everything they have done (and continue to do) for our NMC military service men and women. I hear countless stories on how our veterans appreciate the support they receive campus-wide and how it makes all the difference in the world for our soldiers. I am not only grateful for all you do, but honored to be your colleague! There are too few words and too many ways to say it, but THANK YOU!
Your efforts have helped NMC become one of America’s TOP Military-Friendly Colleges and Universities.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
-Scott Herzberg
POC, Military & Veteran Services, Assistant Director of Outreach Services
