To Kristal Nolf and Linda Racine for their work with ORPE in developing the planning tutorials and tools. Kristal and Dave Dalquist were also extremely helpful in working through the technical aspects of preparing the planning intranet site. Thank you!
To Judy Druskovich who has taken on maritime admissions responsibilities while our admissions specialist has been on leave. Over the past 90 days, she has learned a great deal about our industry and has done a tremendous job assisting in all areas of the maritime admissions process. Her great attitude, interpersonal skills and willingness to learn new processes are at the core of NMC values. Judy’s extensive cross training will pay great dividends in the operation of maritime admissions and the Academy. Judy did all of this while maintaining her front desk responsibilities.
To Wayne Moody and Dave Dell for their extraordinary response to a devastated, struggling student who came to an instructor yesterday in tears. She had gone out to her car after class to leave to pick up her two boys and her car was making a horrible noise and would hardly move. Wayne Moody told the instructor, “Bring her over!” Wayne and Dave not only fixed her car right there on the spot, but after hearing of her struggles, they made some calls and are fixing the rest of her car for $14 instead of the $300 she was quoted. This student was on the verge of walking away from NMC due to financial issues and stress, and now feels part of an organization that cares and is committed to continuing. Thank you Wayne and Dave – you are truly awesome!
