07/02/11					Message from the President: Accreditation Status of Northern Marianas College As the new president of Northern Marianas College (NMC), I look forward to working with the entire NMC community and the community which it serves. As the only public institution of higher education in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, NMC fulfills a critical role in the islands’ economic and social development and has the potential to be the engine for this community’s economic growth. NMC’s logo, the Proa, is the signature sailing canoe of the islands’ indigenous Chamorros and Carolinians. At one point in history, the Proa was the fastest, most agile, and therefore, most envied vessel in the Pacific, taking ancient Chamorros and Carolinians far and wide throughout Micronesia. It is fitting that the Proa is our college’s logo, for we, too, hope to take our students far and wide in their dreams, aspirations, and hopes.
05/31/11					NMC Submits Supplemental Report The Northern Marianas College today submitted its Supplemental Report to the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC). The report supplements the March 15, 2011 Show Cause Report and presents more evidence of NMC's continuing and sustainable efforts to comply with ACCJC eligibility requirements and standards. The report was developed with considerable input and participation from the College community. The Supplemental Report, the March 15, 2011 Show Cause Report, and other accreditation documents will be made accessible on the NMC website once ACCJC indicates that it is appropriate to do so. In the meantime, members of the community are invited to visit the NMC website at www.nmcnet.edu for accreditation news and updates, including the recently-updated FAQ section.
