Alicia Mossington

"My professors at Nipissing have been very encouraging and inspiring. Because of the small classes, most professors are on a first name basis with their students and they are always helpful if we have any questions or concerns. It’s a great feeling when you see your professor in the hall or around town and they instantly recognize you and you can have a talk about class or about school work." - Alicia Mossington, 4th-year Criminal Justice student
