Is Fabulous Spelled Y-O-U?
So, you know you're fabulous. And you might be thinking ‘how come I wasn’t named as one of those Fab 40 in the issue of Northampton Community College Magazine with that theme?’ (That issue "hits the stands” next month.) Good question. And the good answer is that we may have simply overlooked you. <more...>

Alumni Stories

The Way Home
“This is a halfway home,” Bill Stauffer says, with a slight emphasis on ‘home’, as if to contrast the word with the generic, and colder sound of ‘house.’ The word is appropriate; much closer to the feel The Halfway Home of the Lehigh Valley, a part of Treatment Trends, Inc., is laid out to convey. <more...>

Commencement
Forty proud alumni carry their grad-year banners, one for each year since 1967, at this year’s Commencement; another record-breaking graduation.

Reunions

Events You Loved (or Missed):
NCC Loves Florida
It was Lehigh Valley cold but Florida tanning warm back on February 6, 2007 as Dennis and Jane Ackerman (’70 and ’71 grads, respectively) hosted 20 alumni and friends of Northampton at Mattison’s Twin Dolphin Marina in Bradenton, Florida. Alumni who attended include Donna Heffner ’78, Kathryn Campbell ’80, Marge Crandall ’77, June Cunningham-Merrell ’00, Angela Nagle ’99. Dr Scott, president of Northampton, welcomed our alumni and friends and provided a brief update on the College, while everyone enjoyed an evening reminiscing over dinner.


Funeral Service Alumni Reunion
David Heintzelman ’80, and over 100 funeral service alumni and their families descended on Springfest to honor Professor Rich Trexler’s 31 years of service and to reconnect with fellow classmates. Thanks to David for all his work bringing the group together for a wonderful sunny afternoon on campus!






Reunions and Lunches =
Good Times
The Dental Hygiene Class of ’74, and the Architecture and Radio/TV programs all also held reunions this past spring. Everyone got together for food and conversations, and to help celebrate both the College’s 40th anniversary, and the lasting friendships created at NCC over the years.
