How are things going?

Jan 30, 2017 | Student News

You’re in your third week of classes and, hopefully, you’ve settled into your routine. At this point in the semester, make sure you’re:

  • Attending class daily
  • Spending at least 2 hours of homework/study time per 1 hour of class
  • Meeting with your instructors during office hours

If you’re struggling with your study skills, the content of a class, or need homework help, visit the Tutoring and/or Math Centers. Visit the Student Success Center in the Osterlin Building to meet with a Success Coach who can help you with technology skills, time management, organization, or help with focusing in classes. Academic Advisors in the Advising Center can help connect you with these and other resources at NMC. We’re here to help you succeed! Contact the Advising Center at advising@nmc.edu or 995-1040

We’re into week three of the semester and hopefully you’re settling into your semester routine, just as our students are. Take this week to ask students, “How has your semester started off?” and listen for opportunities to connect them with resources or advice Remind them of the importance of attending class, meeting with instructors during office hours, knowing their class grades, and spending enough homework/study time outside of class.

Kudos to Don Cunningham and Maureen Carlson-  They are in the process of implementing new software for managing the scheduling, registration, and billing for continuing education courses. They have embraced this challenge and mastered the software quickly. They both are flexible and innovative when it comes to thinking of new ways to do business to best utilize the software and streamline their processes. It’s a beautiful thing to behold.
