Student Organizations

Research indicates that student involvement increases student satisfaction with the college experience, increases G.P.A., enhances time management skills and decreases a student's likelihood of dropping out of college.

NMC has a variety of recognized student organizations. These organizations are an excellent way to learn about current issues in your profession and the community, meet new people, improve your personal and professional skills, network with local and national professionals and develop leadership skills.

Outreach to the community promotes life long learning and reflects the College's Core Values of caring, excellence, holism, learning and respect. Information regarding one time volunteer opportunities, ongoing service, and service immersion trips can be found on the Community Service page.
