On Sunday, November 6th Christie Smith, Admissions Counselor and Matthew Lawson, Assistant Director of Orientation and FYE presented the topic “Welcoming and Supporting Students with Admissions and Orientation” to over 200 higher education professionals at the NODA National Conference in Indianapolis, Indiana.  NODA is a National Organization that provides education, leadership and professional development in the fields of college student orientation, transition and retention.

Matthew and Christie's presentation focused on the unique and purposeful partnership that Admissions and Orientation and First Year Experience has, and the intentional support network designed to assist students through the enrollment process to the completion of their first year at MCC.  Congratulations to them both for showcasing the innovative collaboration between Admissions and Orientation/FYE, and for their leadership in this important initiative.
