NMC is currently reviewing what the Trump Administration’s freeze on federal aid and grants could mean for the college and our students. While the impact of this order is expected to be broad and remains uncertain, NMC has determined that student financial aid is exempt.
Rest assured, NMC will disburse federal financial awards for spring as planned beginning Monday, Feb. 3. NMC will continue to advocate for our students to minimize learning disruption, and we will continue to communicate with the NMC community as we learn more.
If you have any questions, please contact NMC’s Student Financial Services team at (231) 995-1035 or sfs@nmc.edu.

Thanks to Ed Bailey, Jason Slade and Lisa Cooper for organizing the Great Lakes Blue Tech Challenge, which kicked off today with team formation. The technology-based innovation challenge and pitch competition, focused on the issues facing the Great Lakes, is the sequel to last year’s AquaHacking event. Both are aimed at cultivating entrepreneurship in the new blue economy and fostering the formation of companies that will eventually occupy the Freshwater Research and Innovation Center in Greilickville.

Kudos to Colleen Burry: Colleen goes above and beyond for students! I was working with a student in a tough situation regarding housing. Due to some intricacies of the situation, the student would lose his housing unless someone was available to check into his account and remove a hold over the weekend. The student doesn’t have a lot of support and disclosed the they would have nowhere to live if they lost their housing. When calling to troubleshoot, Colleen offered to help right away. Her willingness to give of her own personal weekend time to help a student in a tough situation is just one example of the empathy and kindness she shows every day. Thank you Colleen! You are making a difference for our students!
Kudos to Lisa Nadlicki: Lisa has taken on the extra responsibility of getting our Clothing Closet back in order and organized since December. She has not only cleaned up the space, she has organized the clothes and even washed things needing a refresh. Thank you so much for your efforts Lisa! This is something unique and extra we offer our students and is completely led by staff volunteers like you.
Kudos to Marysue Lessner: Marysue saw a need, suggested and implemented doc-u-sign to our department. Saving us paper and time and making us more efficient. Marysue has been an awesome addition to our team.
Kudos to Dan Gentry and Information Technology Services: There is a team we rarely meet face-to-face but whose work keeps the wheels turning at NMC. It may be hard for them to see how their daily contributions impact our students, but those of us on the front lines of student services see it and want to acknowledge some of the myriad ways Information Technology Services undergird the services we provide students daily.
Thanks to ITS (Dan Gentry & his team)…
-
- 89% of NMC students from Michigan had full tuition and fees covered by grants and scholarships as a result of massive amounts of programming work to implement FAFSA Simplification, Michigan Community College Guarantee and our new scholarship system
- Most of our financial aid processing is automated, resulting in daily updates of student awards and balances so students always know where they stand
- NMCs is one of the state’s most “put together” financial aid offices. We brag about the contribution made by ITS at every conference! They are world-class!
- Students have library access set up from Day 1 as a Hawk Owl. To a student, this means, “You’re not a stranger. You belong here!”
- Students can self-serve within the library circulation system, resulting in an uptick in students placing their own holds, especially for textbooks at the beginning of the semester
- MeLCat (i.e. interlibrary loan) is configured and supported regardless of the clunky, antiquated system it is, making it possible to connect students to over 400 Michigan libraries and have books delivered to them at the NMC Library
- ITS support has allowed students to schedule Advising appointments online with ease. And by tracking students’ use of critical support services, Advising can quickly identify students who need extra resources. From the student perspective, it’s easier to know who is there to support them, to find services, and to schedule online — even at 2 a.m.!
- Dan’s team makes student data and information more accessible for all of us, which is hugely valuable for our decision-making processes. Having data through Banner reports and Argos reports allows the student services teams to identify students for advising and registration outreach.
- And so much more!
Experts suggest maintaining an “attitude of gratitude” increases positivity for yourself and for others. Please encourage your colleagues by submitting a KUDOS. Let them know you appreciate their hard work and are thinking of them!

A lot of the changes are related to process and we will be working on updating policies to reflect the accurate process. One thing for you to be aware of is that you are no longer required to share information with pregnant students about the Title IX Coordinator. You will recall at the beginning of 2024 we told you to be sure you were letting pregnant students know who NMC’s Title IX Coordinator was (Troy Kierczynski). Since the 2024 regulations have been vacated, you no longer have to provide this information. If a pregnant student needs resources please refer them to Student Life for assistance.
Please continue reporting all Title IX concerns just like you have always done, and if you have questions reach out to Lisa Thomas for student matters and Hollie DeWalt for employee matters. Troy Kierczynski remains NMC’s Title IX Coordinator.

Games & Puzzles
Game – Mausritter
Take up the sword and don the whiskers of a brave mouse adventurer in Mausritter, a rules-light fantasy adventure roleplaying game. Character creation is speedy and simple, designed to get you playing as soon as possible. Your mouse is defined by their randomly assigned background, ability scores, and the gear they carry. A tactile card-based inventory system makes managing your gear a fun challenge. Mausritter is built on the chasis of Into the Odd, with new rules for setting, character generation, magical artefacts, and mouse-scale adventures. GMs are provided with procedures for running a mouse-scale sandbox, along with a bestiary and numerous tables for quickly creating adventures in the mouse kingdoms.
Game – Wavelength
Wavelength is a social guessing game in which two teams compete to read each other’s minds. Teams take turns rotating a dial to where they think a hidden bullseye is located on a spectrum. One of the players on your team — the Psychic — knows exactly where the bullseye is, and draws a card with a pair of binaries on it (such as: Job – Career, Rough – Smooth, Fantasy – Sci-Fi, Sad Song – Happy Song, etc). The Psychic must then provide a clue that is *conceptually* where the bullseye is located between those two binaries. For example, if the card this round is HOT-COLD and the bullseye is slightly to the “cold” side of the centre, the Psychic needs to give a clue somewhere in that region. Perhaps “salad”?
Game – Monopoly: Hello Kitty and friends
Buy, sell, and trade locations where all your favorite characters work and play in this all-new, custom version of the classic game featuring My Melody, Keroppi, Badtz-Maru, Chococat, Cinnamoroll, and many others. Seven collectible tokens feature Hello Kitty and Friends as the cutest vehicles, and Celebrations and Adventures are in store as you collect Kuromi’s Candy Shop, Doki-Doki’s Burger Shack, and more to be the last player standing to win!
Game – Catchphrase
This is a fully electronic re-implementation of the classic team word-guessing hot-potato game Catch Phrase! Players divide into two teams. One team selects the category and presses the start button. An audible timer beeps a count-down while the person holding the device tries to get their team to say the word or phrase on the screen. If they are successful, they hand the device to the next person on the opposite team. The goal of the round is to not be holding the device when the timer goes off — though those last furtive seconds can get dicey! When the timer goes off, the opposing team gets a point and (based on what version of the game you are playing) may also have a chance to steal the phrase for an extra point. The first team to reach seven points wins!
Puzzle – Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore
This jigsaw puzzle captures the breathtaking beauty of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore in Michigan. The towering, sandy dunes stand against the clear blue sky and the tranquil waters of Lake Michigan in Vintage poster Style, creating a stunning and serene landscape.
Instruments & Music
Bongo drums
The soft and warm tone of the buffalo head, combined with the Birch wood body and metallic rim, enhances sound projection, resulting in a clearer and brighter sound. Its neutral sound is suitable for a variety of music styles, including Cuban, Latin, world music, and jazz, making it an ideal choice for exploring different genres and rhythms.
Boombox with CD, cassette, and radio
The Sony CFD-S01 offers an all-in-one, portable way to go old school with your tunes! Highlights include AM/FM radio tuning as well as CD and cassette playback. In addition, the unit features Sony’s Mega Bass Sound System for deep bass tones. All controls are located on the top of the boombox, as is an LCD for track and station info. The convenient carry handle folds down when not in use.
Arts & Crafts
LED tracer opaque art projector
The tracer projector enlarges any design or pattern onto a wall or easel from 2 to 14 times the original size. The projected image can be traced and colored as desired. Use it for artwork sketches, outlining, posters, signs, small murals, home wall decor and decoration, quilt patterns, and more.
Calligraphy pen set
This set will enable you to develop your calligraphy skills to express your creativity through a wide range of lettering styles. The handy instruction and exercise booklets included with this set can be photocopied and offer a letter-by-letter introduction to the art of calligraphic writing as well as a lot of handy tips.
Art print – Feathering the nest by Qavavau Manumie
Qavavau Manumie was born in Brandon, Manitoba in 1958 where his mother, Paunichea, was hospitalized for treatment of tuberculosis. He returned to Cape Dorset as a very young child and has lived there since. Qavavau has demonstrated a range of stylistic abilities over the years – from the very literal to the more expressive. His work is idiosyncratic and often amusing in his depictions of Inuit legends and mythology, Arctic wildlife and contemporary aspects of Inuit life.

NMC is hosting its first mobile food pantry of 2025 from 3-5 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 23 in the Maple Lot at the Front Street campus. The distribution was originally scheduled for Monday, Jan. 20, but was rescheduled due to the weather.
Food to be distributed includes tangerines, apples, potatoes, tomatoes, cottage cheese, cucumbers, peanut butter, mushrooms and more. Based on the tentative menu, this will equate to nearly $200 in fresh and organic produce and foods for each participant.
Walk or drive-thru options exist. Come over and drive-thru OR bring a backpack or reusable bag and take what you and your household can use in the next 7-10 days. The distribution will be drive-thru, but walk-thru residential students are welcome.
This program is specifically designed to support NMC students (and their households) by supplementing their diets with fresh, healthy produce while helping to free up financial resources to cover other household expenses. Everyone is welcome. Take as little or as much as you need for your household.
These pantries are made possible in partnership with Feeding America.

Kudos to Molly Norville. The Friday before Spring semester opened, Molly noticed a student crying in the hall and she stepped away from the desk to console them. She spoke to the student calmly and quietly, comforting them to the point that they were able to walk out head held high.
Kudos to Sharon Angel. Sharon Angel is our custodian at Auto Tech and due to the nature of our work our building can be more of a challenge to keep clean. Sharon rises to the challenge every week and does a fantastic job for us and I just wanted her to know we notice it and appreciate it.
Kudos to Nicco Pandolfi, Paul Kolak, Joelle Hannert, Breanna Goodell and Jessica Parker. Over the past seven years, the NMC Food Pantry has been a vital resource for students, providing countless meals with dignity and convenience while navigating numerous logistical challenges. Thank you for all you have done and continue to do for our students!
Kudos to Nicole Wenstrup and Lindsey Dickinson. Nicole just started her role as the Testing Center Specialist and navigated exam week with the dreaded snow day expertly! Both her and Lindsey were instrumental in helping students and proctors have a smooth and successful experience.
Kudos to Residence Life. At the end of a long semester, the Residence Life team went above and beyond to help students by keeping the halls open through Saturday and Sunday. Last week’s snow day in the midst of final exams threw students, faculty, and staff for a loop and the incredible leaders in Res Life adapted! Thank you to Marcus, Kaitlyn, Brooklyn, Corbin, CJ and all of the RAs who courageously extended their time in the halls to meet students’ needs.
Kudos to the Testing Center Team: Nicole Wenstrup, Duane Dodge, Dan Isola, Alex Lane, Tom Auch and John Walker. A huge thank you and hats off to the Testing Center team for helping students get through finals week! The team exhibited patience, flexibility, and true collaboration as they navigated a snow day in the midst of the busiest time of the academic year. While the Osterlin Testing Center typically sees 200 tests on the busiest day of finals, last Friday the Osterlin Testing Center welcomed over 300 students! The team also opened the Parsons-Stulen Testing Center on Friday and the Osterlin Testing Center on Saturday for extra hours to accommodate student and faculty needs. Thank you to Nicole and all of the test proctors: Alex, Duane, Tom, Dan, and John, for your dedication to our students!
Kudos to Garret Croon. I am submitting this kudos to express how impressed I am with Mr. Croon. His presence on campus is truly remarkable. I have seen him walking around campus multiple times a day during the first week, and his visibility and dedication are truly commendable.
Kudos to Tyrel Stott, Michelle Beckett, and Ricky Hagberg. Tyrel, our newest Technology Help Desk staff member, single-handedly foiled a bad actor who called trying to impersonate a faculty member to obtain their credentials. He recognized the caller was acting suspiciously and raised a flag to his supervisor so that we could verify that the faculty member was NOT calling to change their password. Tyrel’s attention to his caller and their behaviors prevented a major issue. Kudos to Tyrel, as well as, Michelle and Ricky for their outstanding work helping clients at the beginning of the semester and staying on top of cybersecurity for NMC.
