Dr. Christa Abdul-Karim: Kudos to Dr. Christa Abdul-Karim for very successfully planning, managing, and guiding our third International Tour! Extended Education & Training has specialized in serving lifelong learners ages 55+ for over four decades. In the last year, our Extended Education team has applied an innovative mindset to our offerings and developed unique Tier III learning opportunities, which include International Tours. This November, Extended Education successfully carried out a third international tour, this time to Greece. Dr. Christa Abdul-Karim and Brian Lillie from Chateau Chantal led 18 participants on this wine, food and cultural tour through Athens, Kalabaka and Meteora, Crete, and much more, creating an engaging learning opportunity for our community. The median age of Extended Education International Tour registrants is 68. The average cost of an International Tour with Extended Education is $7,300.00 per person. “It was truly an unforgettable experience. We got to do things we never would have imagined. The attention to detail was phenomenal. It was a pleasure to experience this journey with such a wonderful and adventurous group of fellow travelers”, said one participant who attended this learning adventure with their husband.
Tammy Coleman: I asked Tammy early in the semester if she would be willing to lead my PSY101 class through some yoga exercises—she enthusiastically agreed! The week we tackled our Stress Chapter and Tammy shared with students the science/biology of stress, demonstrated quick “tools” for controlling the effects of stress and ended with a chill yoga flow. Thank you, Tammy, for going above and beyond—for the time you committed to these students and the important lessons shared. Amazing job!!
Justin Casey: Today we received a letter from a student in the program highlighting the outstanding job Justin Casey did teaching Instrument Ground School this semester. We were not surprised to receive this letter as Justin does an amazing job with all the students he works with in our program. Thank you, Justin, for your dedication and commitment to our students!
Suzanne Rizzo and Colleen Burry: Kudos to Colleen and Suzanne in the Records Office for weathering a challenging 2024. They both took on new and complex tasks with the retirement of a long-time team member. They also covered the duties of the office assistant that were unfilled for most of the year. In the fall, they assisted in covering for the Registrar who was out of the office unexpectedly and then moving very slowly. Both have followed through on maintaining excellent student service, quality and accuracy during a year that unfolded in unexpected ways. Thank you both for the extra effort and kindness this year. May you enjoy a restful holiday break!

TRAVERSE CITY — Northwestern Michigan College’s Aviation Division has received two anonymous gifts, one of $150,000 and the other of $100,000, to expand its hangar, purchase additional aircraft and relocate its classrooms. The gifts are the largest received to date by Next Level: The Campaign for NMC Aviation, a fundraising initiative to build the Aviation Division’s capacity and admit more students into the program each year.
The Next Level project, with a price tag of $14 million, will be funded by a combination of government support, bonding, and private philanthropy. The college has received $3.75 million in support from the state of Michigan and $550,000 in federal funding toward the project. The NMC Foundation aims to raise $1 million in private philanthropy toward the project. The two anonymous gifts bring the Foundation’s fundraising total to $390,000.
“We are thrilled and so grateful to these two donors for supporting the Next Level campaign,” said Alex Bloye, Aviation Division director. “As the only two-year flight school in the state, we have the unique opportunity to efficiently train the pilots our world desperately needs. Expanding our hangar and fleet will increase the number of students, and ultimately the number of future pilots, we can admit each year. It’s a win for them, a win for our regional economy and a win for our world, which is relying more and more on air travel every year.”
Next Level: The Campaign for NMC Aviation will expand the Aviation Division by:
- Acquiring at least four new, technically advanced aircraft including two Cessna Skyhawks and two multi-engine planes to increase flight capacity (each additional aircraft allows ten additional students in the program)
- Expanding the hangar’s cold and warm storage capacity, creating space for eight additional planes
- Modernizing the hangar infrastructure including the HVAC system, windows and exterior, reducing energy costs
- Relocating Aviation classrooms to the Parsons-Stulen building, revitalizing and reconfiguring the existing space for simulations, testing and flight planning, ensuring NMC Aviation delivers the most efficient and effective training
To learn more about supporting Next Level: The Campaign for NMC Aviation, visit nmc.edu/next-level or call the NMC Foundation at (231) 995-1021.
Ground was broken on the hangar expansion in October. The NMC Foundation is one of the top 20 community college foundations in the United States. In 2019 the NMC Foundation received a Sustained Excellence Award from the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE).

Nicole Speelman, Nick Roster and Nancy OlenchekNMC is preparing to become a magnet for future Albert Einsteins and Marie Curies, offering new courses that will allow high school students conducting advanced scientific research to earn college credits as dual enrolled students.
Eight Advancing Scientific Research (ASR) courses will debut next year, four offered at the high school level and four at NMC. High school instructors from Cadillac to the Mackinac Bridge have been invited to participate, with a stipend funded by the NMC Foundation. These pioneer instructors will receive training in February, and NMC will host its first Science Symposium in April.
The effort is being led by NMC biology instructor Nick Roster, chemistry instructor Nicole Speelman, and Kingsley High School science teacher Nancy Olenchek. A former NMC success coach, Olenchek started a high school research class at Kingsley last year. Through a teacher training organization, she connected her students with mentors at universities like Stanford and Cornell. But in addition to the prestige, Olencheck wanted students to be able to earn college credit.
Enter NMC’s Roster, who last year launched a research project on microplastics contamination with his NMC students.
“They’re doing college level research, no doubt,” he said of Olenchek’s students, citing one who is using fruit fly larva to research generational alcoholism.“It’s only fair for these students, if they’re doing this work, to have it transcribed (as credit),” he said.
The high school teachers will instruct their students in research methodology, and NMC will provide oversight and support.
“No one up here is doing this,” said Roster, adding that the ASR classes eventually could draw students from much farther than Kingsley, as well as students interested in fields beyond natural sciences. Earlier this year NMC trustees passed a dual-enrolled tuition rate that allows high school students to dual enroll from virtually anywhere without incurring out of pocket expenses.
“You do what you want to do. You research your passion,” he said. “This will hopefully be a vehicle for anyone to participate in scientific research.”
The dual-enrolled credit is key.
“It’s a huge benefit to them,” Olencheck said. “It validates their research, No. 1. It gives them some elective credit that they don’t have to pay for.”
The eight-course sequence will allow students to pursue an idea or question through the entire research cycle, from initial framing to gathering data to peer review to potentially publishing and presenting. The top students at the April NMC Science Symposium will go on to the Flint Science and Engineering Fair, the stepping stone to the International Science and Engineering Fair. Prizes and scholarships are available to the winners at these higher levels.
Roster and Olenchek hope that some of these budding scientists elect to stay at NMC.
“There’s not a lot of undergraduate research opportunities,” Roster said. “We have classes set up for them to continue that research. “
“We’re trying to grow our own,” said Olenchek. “We’re trying to make a whole bunch more Hawk Owls.”

Kelly Yauk
(high resolution image)TRAVERSE CITY — Northwestern Michigan College has named Kelly Yauk as its new Marketing Director. A key member of the college’s Public Relations, Marketing, and Communications team, Yauk will lead strategic enrollment marketing initiatives in collaboration with the Admissions office, advancing NMC’s efforts to connect with prospective students through innovative and integrated strategies.
Yauk, of Traverse City, has more than 14 years of experience developing marketing communications strategies and delivering data-driven results. She comes to the college from local manufacturer TentCraft, where she led digital marketing strategy, content creation, marketing operations, social media management, outreach and sales enablement and sustainability strategy.
Prior to TentCraft Yauk worked in digital marketing operations for the Grand Traverse Resort and Spa from 2014-2021. There she managed digital marketing, website, database and social networking activities for the Grand Traverse Resort and casino properties.
Higher education in Michigan is more accessible and affordable than ever, thanks to state programs like the Community College Guarantee for high school graduates from 2023 onward and Michigan Reconnect for adults 21 and older without a degree. These initiatives align closely with NMC’s strategic priorities to expand opportunities for both traditional and adult learners. With four consecutive semesters of enrollment growth, NMC is building momentum to connect even more students to the resources and programs. Yauk will play a critical role in ensuring potential students understand the benefits of these programs and how NMC’s distinctive academic offerings can help them achieve their goals. Her expertise in advanced, data-driven marketing strategies will be vital to reaching and inspiring a diverse range of students to take the next step in their education.
“Kelly brings the expertise and vision NMC needs to continue adapting to the changing expectations of today’s students,” said Diana Fairbanks, associate vice president for Public Relations, Marketing and Communications. “Her leadership will be instrumental in building on our enrollment growth and supporting NMC’s goals of delivering innovative, future-focused education.”
Yauk graduated from Michigan State University in 2003 with a bachelor’s degree in English. At MSU she was in the Honors College and a member of the women’s varsity crew team. She is a member of the Grand Traverse Area Spartans Connect, the Traverse City Track Club, and the Traverse Connect Women’s Leadership Cohort.

Kristy Jackson: Kristy successfully completed and passed the Certified Program Planner recertification through our industry’s guiding organization, LERN (Learning Resources Network). Skills highlighted in the program are pricing, marketing, catalog/description recommendations, youth programming, programming for those 55+, and general programming best practices, among others. Nice work, Kristy!
Amy Burns Bailey and Tracey Welch: Thank you to both of them for all of their efforts during National Apprenticeship Week. The week celebrated the NMC apprenticeship students with daily events, celebrations and goodies. Thank you for making our students feel special.
Amy Burns Bailey: Kudos to Amy Burns Bailey for all the wonderful National Apprenticeship Week events she planned and hosted. These events recognized and celebrated NMC’s apprentices and the companies who partner with NMC to create opportunities for growth and success in their fields.
Bill Czyzyk: Bill worked with the Extended Education team to provide data on Extended Education students who have contributed to the Foundation since 2020. Guess what—Extended Education students have contributed $2.6+ million to NMC since 2020! Thank you, Bill, and the Foundation for engaging our continuing education students, and turning them into donors!
Katy Knight: Katy is always so positive and reassuring. She is ready to take on anything and always puts the students first! Her level-headedness and communication skills are so appreciated!!
Wayne Moody: Wayne Moody officially joined the Emergency Assistance team in January of 2024, and we can’t say enough for what a support Wayne and his team are for helping out students with much needed car repairs that allow our students to stay in their courses and continue their education. Seeing our Automotive instructors and Automotive students stepping up to help get our students’ cars back on the road is so gratifying for our emergency assistance team, and we can’t thank Wayne and his team enough for the care and time and efforts they give to our emergency assistance program. Due to the large geographical area our students travel from, Wayne’s wealth of knowledge and connections to car repair shops around northern Michigan is also priceless. Thank you, Wayne, for all you do for our students!!!!

Folks,
Thanksgiving always gives me pause, offering an invitation to reflect on all that I have to be thankful for—and to say thanks to you. An attitude of gratitude seems to be woven into the fabric of our NMC culture. Just this past week, I saw it expressed by students, faculty, and staff alike.
I saw thankful student mentors offering friendship to the Blair Elementary mentees and others engaging in the Walk for Health and Homelessness, showing compassion for those experiencing housing insecurity. I saw Kristy McDonald’s service-learning class handing out Thanksgiving meals, providing members of our community—including NMC students and their families—an opportunity to enjoy a Thanksgiving celebration. I also saw our faculty and staff welcoming TCAPS 5th graders to explore our campus and learn about health occupations. These efforts help young students begin to imagine themselves at NMC and perhaps in a future career in health care.
Day in and day out, students enter our doors. By choosing NMC, they are making an investment in a college education, believing that their time, effort, and resources will pay off in the form of greater opportunities and improved lives for themselves and their families. They trust us to help them move from where they are today to where they hope to be tomorrow. There’s no more meaningful and fulfilling job than ours: to support that hope and help ensure they succeed in that investment.
An added benefit of our community college mission, as you know, is that we not only transform students’ lives but also enrich our community. Community and regional prosperity are central to our work. We have the privilege of serving as leaders in fulfilling this mission: transforming lives and enriching our community.
Lastly, while many issues may divide people today, at NMC, we remain united by our shared values: Learning, Integrity, Collaboration, Respect, Inclusion, Innovation, Stewardship, and Excellence. I am deeply grateful for how our NMC family exemplifies these values. It’s one more reason to give thanks this season.
Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving!
Nick
