The professors are very friendly and helpful. The staff is friendly as well, but the hidden fees and charges are outrageous. I WAS INFORMED of ONLY 3 OUT OF 5 loans through this college. I signed for and agreed to the repayment terms of only THREE OUT OF FIVE LOANS. Because they did not inform me of the other 2 loans, they went into default after 90 days. Soon the company Aidvantage reached out to me and said my loans through them were in default BECAUSE THE COLLEGE DID NOT TELL ME ABOUT THEM. I had a credit score of 715, and then that happened and now it is only 583. Because of NMC, I will not be able to get a loan of any kind out for 7 years. Don't go to this college if you want your financial situation to stay in tact. Unless your parents are super rich and are paying for your college, DON'T DO IT. In addition, the parking is bad and the cafeteria food is not edible.

It was a very fun, and free activity! Though, normally they run after school programs and in school programs, along with offering some programs for adults. Sometimes, you just gotta relax and do some art...do one and you shall achieve the other. No feelings like you have to be the next Van Gogh or anything, just do your own thing. S'all good.

I have been to a few of the events: one was the Central Neighborhood front porch concerts and treats- it was fun. The other event was as a volunteer (full disclosure) for their plein air paint out as part of Paint Grand Traverse. Oh, I think everyone should volunteer for this, but that's my love of the arts speaking. As more of a dreamer than a do-er, I'm pretty much in awe of those who *do.* Lastly, this evening I was here for the TC Ticker's 'Recess' event. I'd consider going to another of their events, the venues rotate. There were beverage tickets (imbibe if you don't have to work later, as I did) and yummy treats from Maxbauer's and Raduno. I guess I networked, but I consider it more a polishing/fine-tuning of extremely rusty social skills. I am a busy and introverted human, therefore I don't get out much, lol. But, when I do get out, it's because I have high expectations. And, this venue and event both proved themselves to be enjoyable.

I got the veggie quiche which was amazing and surprisingly filling for the small portion. It's all moderately priced but I think the standout was the tomato toast (I'm not sure what the actual name of it was). It was filo dough, roasted tomatoes, balsamic, and some kind of cheese. It was wonderfully savory and quite a large portion compared to the other pastries. Their drinks are also great and they seem to have seasonal drinks, like the cherry london fog. You order at the counter and the atmosphere makes for a low-pressure eating environment. It's very cool to know that the students working here are so passionate about what they're doing. Definitely check it out!

It's set up like a whole room where you can walk around slowly, look, and try different combos at your own pace. The staff was so nice--super helpful and even helped me come up with different pairings. One mix that made my mind almost explode was the watermelon basil balsamic with the ginger olive oil. It was so good, I couldn't stop myself. I went around the whole place trying different combinations like a madwoman. I ended up buying a four-piece set--two balsamic vinegars and two olive oils. One of the oils I bought was a jalapeño olive oil, and being a chef, my mind went to all these different places. My brain started to itch thinking about what I could make--different pieces, different marinades, different sauces, different salads. I got so excited and giddy, like a grown man in a LEGO store or a kid in Toys "R" Us. It was that kind of joy.
