Student Life - NMU Events and Announcements

Student Life

The Diversity Common Reader Program, in collaboration with the NMU Theatre and Dance Department and North x North Coast, is proud to present a discussion of Ta-Nehisi Coates' Between the World and Me, a moving work of nonfiction that explores what it means to live in a black body in contemporary America. Between the World and Me folds trenchant social critique into an intimate letter addressed to the author's son, and is a singular and deeply compelling treatment of issues at the heart of the antiracist protests that have defined 2020.

This event is a panel discussion about the book moderated by Dr. Keenan Colquitt. Those who reserve tickets will receive a link to the virtual panel discussion 24 hours prior to the event.

The NMU Rural Health Careers Camp is an opportunity for high school students from across the UP to experience the health professions to be ready to enter post-secondary education.  Students will experience a variety of health simulations, tour a medical facility and become CPR certified in this 3-day camp. 

The mission of the Area Health Education Center (AHEC) is "Connecting Students to Careers… Professionals to Communities...and Communities to Better Health." We work to carry out this mission by exposing students in health careers through education and outreach; encouraging health profession students to work in areas that
need greater access to primary care professionals, and enhancing professional development opportunities for health professionals.
