Why do President’s Leadership Council members enjoy Northern Oklahoma College?  We asked, and this is what they had to say:

“Along with many other great opportunities, being a part of the PLC at Northern means that you get to work with and be around other students who have similar goals and dreams as well as the same work ethic. All members are striving to make a difference while increasing our leadership skills and confidence.” Taelor Ladd – Stillwater 2012-13
“The student/teacher ratio is great compared to other colleges because in every class I’ve had, teachers have time to provide individual aid outside of class. The overall attitude of the campus makes NOC enjoyable.” Taelor Ladd – Stillwater 2012-13

“PLC members enjoy NOC because it’s a fun, local community college where you can acquire and understand new knowledge to better prepare us for furthering our degrees and for everyday life.” Shane Mullen 2012-13 Enid – PLC Secretary

“As a PLC member, I have many reasons why I enjoy NOC. I have received many opportunities that I never would have received otherwise. I have learned how to be a more effective leader in every area of my life. PLC has given me a better chance to be involved in many of the various activities and organizations that NOC has to offer. Also, I have been able to build up a valuable network of friends and mentors who continue to help me on my journey through college. Add all of this to the great learning environment that NOC has to offer, and it is obvious why I enjoy NOC!” 2012-13 Enid – PLC President
