NIC launching online exhibit to celebrate 50-year anniversary

North Island College (NIC) is looking ahead at its future by celebrating its past. 

The local college has launched a dedicated website landing page which covers and details its history to celebrate its 50-year anniversary. 

The landing page also includes a video which shows glimpses into life at the campus and where the college is headed in the future. 

This three-month digital celebration will reflect its journey, connect with North Island communities, and try to inspire future students. 

The exhibit will be offered in person as well, visiting different campuses throughout the fall semester. 

The college opened in May 1975 as a provincial initiative to expand post-secondary studies.
