My experience at NCC is one I wouldn’t change. I’m proud to have gone to Nassau. I always wanted to be on the radio. So, I ended up majoring in Media Communications.
NCC gave me the opportunity to grow my interpersonal, public speaking and general communication skills. Along the way I was given the opportunity to intern at WHPC (the campus radio station) and was able to live out my dream of being an on-air talent. I helped launch and served on the e-board of Sigma Chi Eta (a communications honor society for two-year colleges). I served as an Orientation Leader and often found myself spending time with fellow workers at the radio station in the basement of the H Building.
If it wasn’t for Prof. Laura O’Connell and Prof. Jill Burgreen, my NCC experience would have been vastly different. They truly have helped me along the way both during my time at NCC and even now today, five years after graduation I still keep in contact with them. After graduation, I moved to Ohio. Although my current position isn’t in Media, my experience at NCC has helped me become a better communicator, learner and friend. Even though I’m miles away, NCC will always hold a special place in my heart.

I served in the United States Navy in Recruit Training Command in Great Lakes, II and at Camp Pendleton with the 5th Marines. I was also deployed to Okinawa, Japan twice. Stateside, I knew that Nassau Community College has a reputation for being very military friendly, and when I got here, it was true.
