NMU has given me so much more than an education- it has given me a sense of purpose, an incredible community, and a foundation to be the leader I have become.

NMU has done a great job over the past couple of years in terms of getting the university in a great financial spot, increasing enrollment and providing students a variety of resources. I hope that those things continue to build over the next 25 years and beyond
