NTCC is pleased to announce that Betsy Gooding, Registrar, has been nominated for this week's Summer Shout Out. Betsy has the important job of maintaining student records, awarding degrees/certificates, and so much more! 

Congratulations to Betsy! We appreciate all she does to support the mission of NTCC.

Betsy was nominated by Mandy Smith and Tom Seabourne:

The NTCC Farmer’s Market is so much more than just a place to buy great locally raised food, the market was established to be a service to the community and area farmers.  The main goal was to be a “gathering place” for area farmers growing great things to sell to those individuals looking to purchase those items.  Students and instructors work to provide NTCC plants, livestock, and processed canned items to provide our students with direct marketing experience.  Local growers are encouraged to come out, learn to present their products, test the markets with various products all at the wonderful setting of the Elizabeth Hoggatt Whatley Ag Complex and Pavilion.

Being a student in the Carroll Shelby Automotive Program at NTCC can be so much more than just going to class. Last week, Shelby student Christian Cabrera participated in the Mid America Ford and Shelby Event in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Christian is completing a summer internship with Gateway Bronco in St. Louis, Missouri. The owners of Gateway Bronco invited him to the event, where he was able to work on a pit crew and ride in a car for some of the races.

NTCC is pleased to announce that our IT Department and Sebastian Barron, Director of Computer and Technical Services, has been nominated for our very first Summer Shout Out. Their team does a phenomenal job of keeping our campus computer systems up and running and so much more.

This summer we are looking for individuals or departments that deserve a Summer Shout Out for going the extra mile assisting students, other employees, or departments. Maybe a colleague took time out of their day to resolve a problem or provided extra assistance to help a student succeed. If you know someone that you would like to recognize for exemplary service during the 2020-2021 school year, please e-mail Amy Adkins at aadkins@ntcc.edu the following information:
