Kudos to Terri Gustafson! <\/b>During our Zoom licensing renewal, Terri saved the college a significant amount of money with her negotiating prowess. Additionally, she represented NMC on 9&10 News, speaking to the college’s AI strategy.<\/span>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Kudos to Skylar Berry! <\/b>I want to share thanks with Skylar because he is always willing to take the extra step and seek a solution. Today, Skylar helped me with a student situation that could have left the student with a balance and unable to adjust her fall schedule. He took the extra moment to review her file and found an alternative solution so she can continue with her final semester at NMC. Thank you for going above and beyond, Skylar!<\/span>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Kudos to Angie Adamick, Robin Maloney, Ronda Russell-Yanski and Stephanie Liss! <\/b>Thank you to the custodial team who jumped in and helped rearrange TJNIC 106\/107 when weather forced a last minute location change to the Rotary Lunch. Their willingness to get the job done and help ensure a successful event was much appreciated!<\/span>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
