To celebrate the 2021 holiday season, we want to continue the college’s strong tradition of giving and encourage employees to support the NMC Food pantry and Student Life’s Stocking Stuffers program by visiting nmc.edu/give. Monetary donations to the Food Pantry are preferred, however non-perishable food items may also be dropped off in-person at any desk in the Osterlin Building from now until December 15.
We also want to continue the fun with the annual Ugly Sweater Contest and hot cocoa tradition. Join us on Wednesday, Dec. 15 as we celebrate Ugly Sweater Day at NMC. Please don your most festive attire on this day and submit your contest entry to publicrelations@nmc.edu. Stop by the Tim Nelson Innovation Center from 1–3 p.m. to grab some hot cocoa and cookies — a treat that is Santa-approved! We will also have donation bins on-site in the Innovation Center so that you can drop off goods for the food pantry while you’re there.
We have asked Marguerite Cotto and Vicki Cook, who are both retiring at the end of the year, to stop by the Innovation Center from 1–1:30 p.m. on December 15 so that anyone who would like to say “thank you,” “farewell” or “hasta la vista” (or will it be “hasta pronto?”) has the opportunity to connect with them.
