Embrace the Dream graphicAn NMC Celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and Black History Month

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., most famous for his leadership during the civil rights movement and his “I have a dream” speech,” once said, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’ ” In honor of King’s legacy, NMC will observe its first campus-wide commemorative event, Embrace the Dream, from January 17 through February 14, 2022. NMC faculty, staff and students are invited to participate in these learning activities and volunteer opportunities.

Check out the Embrace the Dream page and Google Calendar and add these activities to your own calendar, including new volunteer activities each week! Please use these opportunities to connect, discuss, reflect, and engage with our community to make a difference in the lives of our underrepresented populations as part of our diversity, equity, and inclusion commitment and our NMC strategic direction. We hope these activities will provide opportunities to learn and share new perspectives with our students, faculty, staff and community members.

We look forward to this important event and to sharing the stories of what we learn and accomplish together along the way. How will you “Embrace the Dream”?
