GLOBAL OPPORTUNITY: HOST AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT<\/h3>\n

Do you have a spare bedroom available? Would you like to share your culture and experiences with a student while learning about theirs? Become a host for an international student attending NMC! We have an immediate need for a host family for January for a great new aviation student from England. He is a male student who has already completed an honors degree in Aerospace Engineering at the University of Hertfordshire and is\u00a0coming to NMC to earn his Aviation degree and get his pilot’s license. The student will have his own transportation, but would like to stay with a family during his time here. For more information please\u00a0contact Lindsey Dickinson (ldickinson@nmc.edu<\/a>\u00a0or 5-1082).<\/p>\n

ACCREDITATION VISIT UPDATE<\/h3>\n

As we learned at Mid-Year Opening Conference, the next step in our quality journey will be a check- up visit by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) on January 25-27, 2012. As part of that process, we are required to offer an opportunity for the community to provide comment about NMC directly to the HLC. Therefore, you might notice an ad that will run next week in the Traverse City Record- Eagle announcing this comment period. Additionally, there is a link on our NMC website\u00a0www.nmc.edu\/news<\/a>\u00a0where you and other members of the community are provided the details for sending comments directly to the HLC. Comments must be received by December 25, 2011.<\/p>\n

The intent of the check-up visit is to provide constructive feedback on our institution, designed to help accelerate our continuous improvement journey. HLC\u2019s motivation will be to help us improve. We are gearing up to take full advantage of their expertise and experience.<\/p>\n
