THUMBS UP to hosting International Day in the Courtyard.
Last year the International Day celebration was brought indoors to the cafeteria area because of the wet weather. Space was tight, and the event lost a bit of its luster. But this year the event was able to spread its wings in the Courtyard with a fashion show, free food and booths that represented numerous countries. Th e energy was high, and so was the participation.

THUMBS DOWN to excess PDA on campus.
Come on guys, really? We’re not in middle school anymore. The public display of affection on campus needs to stop. All of us here at the N-R don’t like to see it and I’m sure that everyone else on campus could live without it. We’re big guys and gals now. Leave it at home.

THUMBS UP to the student art show.
More than 200 pieces of art including 3-D, 2-D, ceramics, watercolor, acrylic and oil pieces have swarmed the Gallery. Th ere’s a little something down there for everyone. Oh, and all the works are done by your fellow NLC students.

It’s our favorite exhibit of the year.

THUMBS DOWN to people who abuse other people’s vehicles.
We know the spaces are tight and finding a good parking spot on campus is tough, but watch out when you get out of your car. No one likes to finish off a stressful day to find a huge ding in their door. Let’s be a little more courteous to the cars on campus.
