About the NMU Retirees Association
The NMU Retirees Association (NMURA) was formed in 1984 to provide an identifiable organization composed of Northern Michigan University retirees. The NMURA provides the structure and opportunity for determining the needs, interests, and concerns of Northern Michigan University retirees and to communicate these matters to appropriate University and public agencies. We also provide opportunities for retirees to contribute their time and talents to NMU and to participate in social and intellectual campus functions and activities.
Any employee of Northern Michigan University who was eligible for retirement when employment affiliation with NMU was terminated, as well as his/her spouse, is considered a member. We hope to see you at future activities and look forward to keeping in touch with you after retirement.
