    Employee Review - Admin assistant…read more I had the pleasure of working for NDNU's admissions and marketing team when they fully transitioned to a graduate university. Being a part of a huge shift was a learning experience and I was grateful to have had the support of several department heads. No one talked down to me or made me feel less than. Working on a campus surrounded by nature and spotting a deer on the daily brought me a sense of presence and peace that I enjoyed on my breaks. I would have stayed with NDNU but I moved out of the SF Bay Area. I enjoyed working with all the faculty and staff, but I especially enjoyed supporting current and future students. Though I was never a student I was impressed by the attention to furthering one's education by promoting small class sizes. What a way to feel seen and heard! Anywho, I'm rambling. If you have an opportunity to attend NDNU or work there, don't hesitate to apply. 4 stars because pay could be higher to meet cost of living in California.

    I absolutely love this school. I will be walking the stage this Saturday, shaking hands, accepting…read moremy diploma, and tossing my cap way up in the sky! Finally, I'll be done. ((sniff sniff)) A few years ago I completed my Undergrad in Accounting & Finance here. Last December, I completed my last Graduate class. (Graduation ceremonies occur once a year in May.) NDNU is located in Belmont, surrounded by lush trees, wonderful weather, pretty animals, and even a beautiful mansion (Ralston Hall). NDNU has an extensive faculty of distinguished staff and professors with prestine wisdom and experience. The MBA program follows a stellar curriculum, applying assignments and projects to current, real world/global issues. Another great thing about NDNU is it's comprised of well diversed students with different backgrounds. Having such a diverse group enhances your education and brings more experience to the table, which is required in our global economy. Tuition at NDNU is definitely on the pricier side. However, this is a private university and it's worth it. Classes are intimate, enabling students with the luxury of a more one-on-one type of education. Students are not considered numbers here, but rather treated as well respected peers. Regarding education, you get exactly what you put into it. Each person may have their own opinion of this school, but what really matters is what you take away from what you've learned. NDNU has provided the necessary tools (ie staff, professors, and program), now it's up to each student & what they want to do with it. P.S. I am so done with writing school papers!

    I'm so glad we were able to attend Sei Boku Bonsai Kai's, 36th annual show. It is a two-day event…read more(June 1-2, 2019), located at the San Mateo Garden Center (Beresfored Park). We attended the afternoon demonstration led by Steve Iwaki & Jerry Carpenter. They demonstrated how to properly wire and train a tree trunk for your bonsai as well as trimming. As a novice bonsai, we found their demonstration very educational! During the event, I met one of the volunteers who shared that Sei Boku Bonsai Kai was founded by a dedicated late nurseryman, Bob Kato way back in 1983. Since then, SBBK has been educating and training the public the joys of the Japanese art of training trees in a pot. Did you know that Bonsai, (pronounced "bone-sigh") translates to "planted in a container?" If you are considering learning more about bonsai, SBBK holds a monthly meetings every 4th Wednesday of each month at the Beresford Center. These meetings features workshops, demonstrations and benefit drawings and many more. There is also a monthly workshops that is hands-on advice every 1st Tuesdays of each month. Here are more additional training SBBK offers: Beginners class Lending library books, periodicals, videos, tools, and a seasonal wiring. Club Field Trips Annual exhibitions Networking with members and master bonsai experts. Lastly, we are grateful that this organization exist because we learned so much today especially how to properly wire our trees in a pot. After the demonstration, we were lucky to find a beautiful Japanese Red Pine that was said to be about 15-20 years old. Before heading out, we stopped by at the "Dr. Bonsai" table and John "JT" Thompson was very kind and taught us the right way to care for our new tree. What a fun day we had. Cheers!
