Our Fall 2018 semester is kicking off this week at Northeast. It’s hard to believe that fall season is just around the corner and the pumpkin spice ‘everything’ will soon start lining the shelves, especially with 100 degree temperatures still with us.

For the safety and security of NTCC, all students, faculty and staff are required to display a parking permit on their vehicle while on campus. Security officers will enforce this by issuing warnings beginning September 4. Citations with fines will follow the warning period.
Parking permits are FREE. Student permits are issued in the Student Services building and employees can pick them up from the Human Resources department.
Thank you for helping us keep our campus safe for everyone!
