Kudos to the Career Fair Committee, the Hagerty Center staff and everyone that volunteered in bringing the NMC Career Fair back to the Hagerty Center face-to-face. It was obvious that students, staff and community partners were overjoyed to have an event in-person and it was not possible without the group effort in planning and implementing. Thank you for your willingness to go the extra mile and offer this event to our students and community! The production quality demonstrates NMC’s commitment to excellence. Great collaboration and great result! Thank you!!

Kudos to Katie Sommer-Ford, Lisa Baldyga and Hannah Witte: Katie Sommer-Ford and Lisa Baldyga partnered to organize and execute the 2022 NMC & NW Michigan Works! Career Fair. Hannah Witte designed the marketing pieces including flyers, tri-fold table displays, social media posts, and email graphics for the event. This was the first in-person fair since 2020. Last year Katie and Lisa organized a completely virtual fair. This year they again took the lead to gather internal and external partners, organize volunteers, develop a marketing plan, collaborate with 60 different employers, and produce a successful and engaging event. More than 80 students and community members participated and feedback from all participants was very positive.

Kudos to Steve Dix and Justin Guillard: They are on campus everyday working behind the scenes to keep us all up and running. They are often on the run themselves. Thank you for covering the bases for us. You are appreciated.

Kudos to Emily Crull for her help in hiring adjuncts in Health Occupations. Emily went above and beyond to help us go through the process of hiring adjuncts and we appreciate it very much. Thank you.
