Kudos to Steve Kellman, Emily Crull, and Joan Sodini. With the announcement of the new dual enrollment tuition rate for students from outside Grand Traverse County ($160 vs. previous rate of $261) PRMC has been going above and beyond to provide Advising and Admissions collateral materials, website updates, and media support. Steve Kellman created a new page with clean formatting to display Advising’s dual enrollment course pathways, including making a last minute after-hours push to update content. Emily Crull created Canva templates for printed versions of the dual enrollment pathways to hand out to students and their families. Joan Sodini brought polish and brand cohesion to the presentation that is being used to help inform families about dual enrollment. A big thanks to this team’s efforts to help NMC shine and for this “full court press” effort to get things ready for our first information and advising sessions this week.
Kudos to Amy Burns Bailey for bringing back Ken Scott for a Lunch & Learn around Transformation Coaching. There were 19 students and staff who attended the session at Parsons-Stulen. Everyone was engaged and students asked great questions!
Kudos to Marcus Bennett. Shoutout to Marcus for his awesome collaboration with the Civic Center! The ice skating event was thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended. It was a very unique way of getting students engaged in community building and with others, while also getting some fun physical activity. Such a wonderfully orchestrated event with tons of laughs and smiles… and only a few sore muscles.
Kudos to Corbin Thompson for Corbin’s constant energy and enthusiasm for residents! Whether it be helping them to utilize resources for academic and/or personal growth, overseeing the Critt Happens (D&D) student group, or his fun sense of humor which livens the room. His openness and honest insights allow him to connect well with our students and build fantastic rapport.
Kudos to Kaitlyn DeBoer. A GINORMOUS shoutout to Kaitlyn as she works tirelessly to learn and understand our StarRez system! She has put in so much effort into understanding the under-utilized potential of this software so that both our residents and our department can have a more effective and efficient experience with it. She has been so innovative in finding ways in which she can grow her StarRez knowledge-base, whether it be working with other higher-ed professionals to help answer questions, earning free training hours from the company’s personnel, or watching hours of YouTube videos on the software (just to name a few). Thank you, Kaitlyn, for all that you have done and continue to do, as well as for your commitment to excellence!
