et another good thing is
happening in Trenton, Mo.,
said state Sen. Brad Lager when
he, Gov. Jay Nixon and more than
300 other people attended the
ground-breaking ceremony for
the Barton Farm Campus of North
Central Missouri College.
“This is a celebration of a way of
life”, said NCMC President Neil
Nuttall in his welcoming remarks.
“As agriculture goes, so goes north
Missouri.”
The sun was shining and there
was a slight breeze at the celebration Sept. 8, 2010, on a hill at the
Barton Farm Campus located
off U.S. Highway 65 just south of
Trenton. More than 135 acres of
land for the campus was donated
to the College by the Elizabeth and
Arthur Barton Trust to benefit the
College’s agriculture program. With
the development of the Barton
Farm Campus, NCMC is positioning
itself to offer students instruction
in cutting-edge technology toward
21st Century careers in agriculture,
energy and natural resources.
Governor Nixon praised NCMC
for expanding its agricultural and
natural resource programming and
for plans to develop degree and
certificate programs in alternative
agriculture and renewable energy.
NCMC students will be in a global
competition for jobs with the best
and brightest from around the
world, he said.
“I’m here to tell you that we are
not here in the Show-Me State to
lose. We’re here to win,” he said.
“Missouri has always stood at
the cutting edge of agriculture
research and natural resource
management,” the governor said.
Governor Nixon was not the only
statewide official to attend the
ground-breaking ceremony. Dr.
Jon Hagler, Missouri Director of
Agriculture, was another platform

guest to address the crowd. NCMC
is “thinking outside the barn,” he
said, indicating that the College’s
leaders are breaking the patterns
of the past century and looking
toward the future. “Agriculture has
always been Missouri’s number
one industry” , he said, “thanks to
farm families, farming communities and world-class agricultural
institutions that support it”.
“What we are doing here today
stands for the best we have in our
state and the best we have in the
country,” he said.
Senator Lager said that the
ground-breaking ceremony was
the newest addition to the list
of “good things” happening in
Trenton. That list includes the
opening of Dr. Albert and Vera
Cross Hall on the College’s main
Representative Casey Guernsey
Jon Black
campus and the construction of a
new hospital, just northwest of the
Barton Farm Campus. He said he is
pleased to keep visiting Trenton to
celebrate “good things.”
“The only way for us to better our
way of life is to enhance the educational opportunities. This is good
now and good in the long term,”
he said.
Rep. Casey Guernsey, an alumnus
of NCMC, agreed. Education
will be necessary for Missouri to
continue to be a leader in agriculture production and to change
the industry to meet tomorrow’s
demands, he said.
NCMC students Jon Black of
Chillicothe, Mo., president of
the Missouri FFA Chapter, and
Johnna Garrett of Gower, Mo.,
president of the Missouri PostSecondary Agriculture Student
Organization also spoke to the
audience. Others addressing the
group included Phyllis Dible,
alumnae and co-chairman of
the College’s Invest in the Vision
campaign; Jeff Crowley, NCMC
Foundation president; and Ron
Auxier, principal architect with
Ellison-Auxier Architects, the firm
designing the campus.
Dr. John Jasinski, president
of Northwest Missouri State
University, told the crowd of
Jeff Crowley, Rev. Ron Ratliff, Dr. Jon Hagler, Dr. Neil Nuttall, Governor Jay Nixon, Senator Brad Lager, Dr. John Jasinski, Ron Auxier,
Barton Trustee Donnie Moore, and NCMC Trustee Steve Busch
the partnership between that
four-year institution and NCMC.
About 20 acres of the Barton
Campus has been set aside for
use by Northwest as a test plot for
forage and other crops.
Platform guests and NCMC
students used gold-painted
shovels to symbolically turn over
dirt to close the ground-breaking
ceremony.
After the ceremony, guests were
invited to a barbecue lunch
provided and catered by the
Trenton Hy-Vee Food Store. Young
Country, a local band, entertained
from the stage.
Governor Nixon, Senator Lager and
Representative Guernsey toured
the construction site. At that time,
utilities had been installed and
dirt work had been done for the
parking lot and first two buildings
of the Barton Farm Campus.
The construction pace picked
up and as of late winter, the
framework and roof of the Lager
Laboratory of Plant and Energy
Sciences had been completed
and construction crews were
working inside while nearly a
foot of snow lay on the ground
outside. Footings for the Metcalf
Mechanical Resource Center had
been poured and construction
materials were ready, pending a

break in the weather. Footing for
the wind turbine also had been
poured, ready for installation of
the 100-foot lattice structure, also
pending better weather. The architects were wrapping up the final
design of the yet-to-be-named
animal sciences complex.
Construction is on schedule for the
Barton Farm Campus to open to
students for the fall 2011 semester.
Long-range plans call for the
construction of an equine science
complex and a visitors’ center
with an agricultural museum; the
planting of an arboretum featuring
trees, shrubs, grasses and other
plants native to Missouri; and
further development of a two-acre,
14-foot deep pond stocked with
aquatic life native to Missouri.
NCMC partnered with the J. B.
Wright Charitable Trust, Grundy
County Commission, Trenton
Township, the City of Trenton
and the Missouri Department of
Transportation on the design and
construction on a new access
road between U.S. 65 and Iowa
Boulevard.

Legacy Farms to be Recognized
A
s construction on the Barton
Farm Campus continues,
families with a long history in
agriculture are recognizing the
importance of the campus and
contributing to a program known
as “Legacy Farms”. Families from
throughout the state and beyond
are invited to contribute to the
construction of the Barton Farm
Campus and in turn will be recognized with a listing of their family
farm on a specially designed wall
of honor.
The Billie Metcalf Lewis Farm and
the Elizabeth & Arthur Barton
Family Farm are the first two to
be recognized. The Metcalf family
farm southwest of Trenton was
given to the College and the
Trenton R-9 School District in
1972. The farm was utilized by
both school systems for study and
research and sold in 2007 with all
proceeds earmarked for further
development of the Barton Farm
Campus.
The Elizabeth and Arthur Barton
family farm southeast of Trenton
was given to the College through
the family trust in 1995. In 2008,
the land officially was transferred
to the College for the development of the Barton Farm Campus.
Three additional farms are among
the first to be honored by making
cash contributions toward the
construction of the Barton
campus. The Hoffman Fair Acres
Farm at the southwest edge of
Trenton has long been a part of
the Hoffman family. Originally
owned by Dale S. and Alice May
Hoffman, their sons, Frank and
Charles, assumed ownership and
today finds their children and
grandchildren managing the farm.
Robbins who moved here from the
state of Indiana. One hundred fifty
years later, William R. Robbins and
his family continue the legacy of
Robbins’ farm ownership.
A special wall of honor will be
located on the Barton Farm
Campus to honor “Legacy Farms”
Charles Hoffman, Phyllis Dible and Bill Robbins
The Martin-Elliott Family Farm west
of Laredo originally was owned by
William and Emogene Martin and
later Viola Elliott. The farm remains
in the family and now is owned by
their great-granddaughter Phyllis
Jackson Dible of Trenton.
The Robbins Family Farm in
northern Grundy County originally
was owned by Jacob Raymond
contributors. This recognition not
only will support the financial
construction of the College’s
agriculture campus but also pay
tribute to the families who have
played an important part in the
agricultural history of the area.
Interested persons may contact
the Office of Development at
NCMC for more information on
becoming a Legacy Farm.
Alumni Spotlight - Chris Riley
C
hris Riley graduated from
in 1999 with an AAS in Agri
Business. While at NCMC, he was
selected to the President’s List and
was active in the Postsecondary
Agriculture Student Organization
on a local, state and national level.
During his time at college Chris
gained the necessary education to
continue to grow and expand his
business. His wife Misty graduated
from Iowa State University in
2004 with a BAS in Landscape
Architecture.
Chris knew at an early age that
he wanted to own and operate
his own business. In fact, in
elementary school he began to
make business contacts to mow
lawns. In 1987 he founded Chris’
MODOT ribbon-cutting last
December for the connector
road south of Trenton near
NCMC’s new Barton Campus &
Wright Memorial Hospital.
Holding the ribbon on the left is
Kevin James, Assistant District
Engineer, and on the right is
Dan Niec, District Engineer, for
District 2 of the Missouri
Department of Transportation.
Cutting the ribbon is Cathie
Smith, mayor of Trenton.

Lawn Care and Landscape. By
the time he graduated from high
school, he already owned a fleet
of equipment and employed a full
crew.
Chris and Misty
met in elementary school and
become good
friends. As they
grew up together,
Misty watched
Chris attend
NCMC only to
return home
after school to
nurture and build
the business he
created. She
realized early on
the passion he
had for NCMC and his business.
Marriage eventually took place
and this union created not
only a happy marriage, but a
strong business partnership.
They combined their valuable
education, training and years
of experience to diversify the
services they offered. They are
both committed to customer
satisfaction.
Today the Riley’s continue to
operate Chris’ Lawn Care and
Landscape LLC in Kearney,
Missouri. The company has grown
to include
many
different
divisions
including:
landscape
design, the
installation
of irrigation
systems,
retaining
walls, patios
and outdoor
kitchens.
They continue their turf maintenance division and expanded it
into chemical application, seeding,
sodding, drainage and erosion
control. Chris and Misty target not
only the residential market that
got them started but has grown to
include customers in the commercial, industrial and governmental
sectors.
Several years ago they took
the opportunity to branch into
commercial and residential real
estate development including
rental property, RV and mini
storage. In 2007 they partnered
with a multi-state auction
company to tap into the current
market trend which has been a
very successful venture. Since that
wasn’t enough to keep the couple
busy, they started to manufacture
and distribute a line of skid steer
attachments.
Both Chris and Misty will quickly
tell you that much of the success
of their business is due to a quality
education. Chris is proud to tell
anyone that he would not be
where he is today without the
support of NCMC agriculture
instructor Bill Hinkebein, the availability of an affordable education
that was close to home, and
the ability to receive personal
attention from a very caring
faculty.
Chris and Misty both realize the
impact that NCMC has had on
Chris’ success in his many businesses. They want to encourage
others to recognize the importance of a community college
education and have established
a trust to benefit the Barton Farm
Campus. They would like to
encourage others to do the same.
We are proud to recognize Chris
Riley and his wife Misty in this
edition’s Alumni Spotlight.

armers Bank of Northern Missouri pledged
$50,000.00 to support the construction of the
Barton Farm Campus of North Central Missouri
College. The pledge was announced at a reception
in Trenton amidst Farmers Bank of Northern Missouri
employees, directors and stockholders and representatives of North Central Missouri College, City of
Trenton leaders and community guests.
In making the announcement, Farmers Bank of
Northern Missouri President and CEO David Tribble
stated his delight in supporting such an effort to
foster agriculture and education. As one of the
100 largest agriculture lenders in the United States,
Tribble said this partnership endorses the Farmers
Bank belief in the future of agriculture and the impact
this new campus will have on the lives of students
for years to come. Tribble noted that students
from every community served by Farmers Bank of
Northern Missouri attend NCMC and many of those
are agriculture and natural resources majors.
Dr. Neil Nuttall, President of North Central Missouri
College expressed appreciation for the gift and the
timing of the pledge. Construction is to be completed
on the first of two buildings on the Elizabeth and
Arthur Barton Farm Campus this fall. Over 80
students currently are declared majors in the agriculture and natural resources field, and that number
is expected to grow to 150 or more by the completion of the campus. Nuttall went on to say that 87
percent of all NCMC graduates remain in northwest
Missouri following their graduation thus impacting
the future of agriculture leaders and providers.
Accepting the check in the amount of $50,000 from
Tribble were President Nuttall, NCMC Ag students
Troy Meinke of Princeton, Johnna Garrett of Hemple,
Heather Main of Bucklin and Andrew Hawkins of
Gower along with Ag Instructors David Nowland and
Rustin Jumps and NCMC Foundation President Jeff
Crowley.
Correction!
In the last issue of Alumni and Foundation News, we reported that JaWan Davis and
Cassie Hunt were the first two NCMC athletes to be recognized as All- Americans in
basketball by the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA). Davis was
named to the second team in 2010 and Ms. Hunt was a third-team selection in 2008
and a second-team selection in 2009.
The Foundation & Alumni News is

at North Central Missouri College.
Our apologies to Stephanie Beason, formerly of Norwood, Mo., and a 2004 graduate
of North Central Missouri College, who was the first NJCAA All-American selection in
2003-2004 as a first-team choice.

T
he past, present and future were celebrated at the
seventh annual North Central Missouri College
Gala on Oct. 9, 2010, at the Ketcham Community
Center.
The past was celebrated when six individuals were
honored as the 2010 Class of Distinguished Alumni.
In addition, the 85th anniversary of the founding of
NCMC as Trenton Junior College was recognized with
the presentation of a Missouri Senate Resolution by
Sen. Brad Lager and Rep. Casey Guernsey.
The present was celebrated when it was announced
that NCMC has its largest enrollment ever, with 1,900
students; is ranked 23rd in the 50 Best Community
Colleges of 2010 by Washington Monthly; and is
progressing with the development of the Barton
Farm Campus.
The future was celebrated when 1999 NCMC
alumnus Chris Riley and his wife, Misty, of Kearney,
Mo., announced the establishment of a trust that, at
their death, will provide funding for the continued
operation of the Barton Farm Campus.
More than 320 alumni and friends walked past tall
white Grecian pillars as they entered the gymnasium
at the Ketcham Community Center transformed into
a banquet hall. Attendees were greeted by NCMC
Foundation Directors Phyllis Dible and Edward
McCarty. NCMC students escorted attendees to their
tables and directed them toward a reception area
7
where they could greet the six Distinguished Alumni
honorees.
The Northland Classical Trio entertained from a stage
at the center of the banquet hall. Kay Bruinsma,
mother of NCMC chemistry and physics professor,
Dr. Paul Bruinsma, played the violin in the trio. She
was joined by pianist Joyce Berg and cellist Stephen
Pelkey. All three are professional musicians from the
Kansas City area.
After dinner, Mrs. Dible recognized Trenton Junior
College/North Central Missouri College alumni
attending the Gala, with particular recognition
given to the youngest alumni from the classes of
2000 to 2010 and the oldest alumni present, Marian
Abernathy McCarty, class of 1932, and William
Robbins, class of 1936. Mrs. Dible also recognized the
current NCMC students who were serving as waiters.
She urged attendees to remember their “poor college
years” and be generous with tips.
Steve Maxey, Director of Development, introduced
the 2010 Class of Distinguished Alumni:
Franklin Bosley of Trenton, Mo., retired buyer and
decorator for The Jones Store department stores in
the Kansas City area.
His twin brother, Frederick Bosley, also of Trenton,
Mo., a retired educator for the Shawnee Mission,
Kan., School District and Metropolitan Junior College
District.
Dr. Jerry Hammond McClelland of Roseville, Minn.,
a retired educator who concluded her career as
Director of Graduate Studies at the University of
Minnesota.
W.W. “Pete” Peery of Walla Walla, Wash., a retired
lawyer, banker and philanthropist.
Robert Sibbit of Princeton, Mo., a retired livestock
specialist with the University of Missouri Extension
Service, and his wife, Ann Mayo Sibbit, a retired
educator who taught in the Princeton and Trenton
school districts.
The honorees were presented with Distinguished
Alumni medallions by College President Dr. Neil
Nuttall and NCMC Foundation President Jeff Crowley.
The bronze medallions feature a relief of the Geyer
Hall clock and towers with the words Trenton Junior
College and North Central Missouri College on the
rim. The recipient’s name and year of induction are
etched on the back. Members of previous classes of
Distinguished Alumni also received medallions at the
Gala and all are encouraged to wear their medallions
at future Galas.
Alumnus Chris Riley encouraged his fellow alumni
to support NCMC with contributions both large and
small with his announcement that he and his wife,
Misty, had established a trust that will bequeath their
estate to NCMC upon their deaths. The couple own
a successful lawn care and landscaping business
that Chris started as a youngster mowing lawns. The
business has grown into a commercial and residential
enterprise and the Rileys have branched out into
other business ventures that include real estate
development and the manufacturing and distribution
of a line of skid steer attachments.
Mr. Riley credits much of his business success to
the education he received at NCMC. He pointed
to the affordable education “close to home” that
NCMC provided, along with the personal attention
he received from faculty and staff. He particularly
credited retired agriculture and natural resources
instructor Bill Hinkebein for his encouragement and
support. Mr. Hinkebein and his wife, Jean, surprised
the Rileys by leaving an equestrian competition
early to drive from Omaha to Trenton for the Gala
before returning to Omaha that evening to finish the
competition the next day.
The estate of Martha Callen Ogle was recognized as
a major contributor to the NCMC Foundation during
2010. Mrs. Ogle graduated from TJC in 1937 and when
she died Sept. 28, 2008, left the College more than
$177,000 in her estate. She requested her gifts be
spent on the allied health and agricultural programs
at NCMC.

Another alumnus, Steve Maxey, was honored at
the Gala for his dedication to his alma mater as the
Director of Development. Mr. Crowley presented Mr.
Maxey with a crystal figurine for his tireless efforts to
attract students to North Central Missouri College,
to engage alumni, to raise funds for scholarships
and the development of NCMC and his meticulous
planning and oversight of improvement, expansion
and development projects.
The 85th anniversary of the founding of TJC/NCMC
was celebrated with the reading of a Missouri Senate
resolution presented by Sen. Brad Lager and Rep.
Misty and Chris Riley
Casey Guernsey. The resolution recognized the
College’s past accomplishments while projecting
future successes with the development of the Barton
Farm Campus.

The Whan Family Leaves a Legacy to NCMC
M
any families have impacted
the future development of
and no family has been any more
significant than the Whan family
- Rachel, Marjorie and Keith.
Contributing over half a million
dollars to North Central Missouri
College, this family epitomizes the
intent of giving back to their alma
mater.
All three siblings graduated from
what was Trenton Junior College
– Rachel in 1932, Marjorie in 1934
and Keith in 1939. All three grew
up attending rural Missouri high
schools; the girls graduated from
Harris High School while Keith
graduated from Galt High School.
All three excelled academically;
the girls were class valedictorians
while Keith ranked second in his
graduating class.
Their parents insisted that the
children attend the local junior
college. As luck would have it, TJC
was formed just in time to meet
the higher educational goals of the
Whan threesome. All completed
their course of study at Trenton
and headed off to four-year universities. The girls aspired to become
teachers and both graduated
from the University of MissouriColumbia. Keith had an interest
in business and with the encouragement from TJC President W.H.
McDonald, headed off to CulverStockton College in Canton. He
also became a university graduate.
While the aspiring teachers began
their careers in small one-room
country schools, Keith entered the
military.
Rachel Whan Hoover and
Marjorie Whan Dennison touched
hundreds of lives as teachers. Both
ladies spent 37 years each in the
classroom before retiring. Rachel
retired from the Trenton R-9 School
District in 1969 and Marjorie
completed her teaching career
17
in the North Kansas City
School District in 1972.
Keith unfortunately lost
his life in World War II and
was never able to follow
his dream of coaching
or beginning a career in
business.
Rachel passed away in
2003 and Marjorie died in
2009. Today, the estate of
the Whan family members
is being shared with North
Central Missouri College
benefitting from their
vision. A gift of $300,000
was received by the
College in 2009 with unrestricted uses.
Steve Maxey, Director of
Development at NCMC,
worked closely with the Whan
sisters after assuming his position
at the College in 2001. Both ladies
were impressed with the planning
for campus development and
the proposed new construction.
Additionally, both were excited
with the growth in student enrollment and relationships being
cultivated with area universities
emphasizing teacher education
programs.
In visiting with Marjorie at one
of the last events she attended,
the 2005 Gala, she emphasized
the importance of nice parking
lots, attractive sidewalks and
surroundings that enhance the
campus and impacted the elderly
and handicapped. With this in
mind, the parking lot south of
the Ketcham Community Center
was constructed, providing
a smooth pavement, good
lighting and accessibility to
the community center and was
paid for with monies from their
family. Furthermore, new floor
tarps for use at special events at
the Ketcham Center were also
Notes from Nuttall
NCMC President Dr. Neil Nuttall
Marjorie Whan Dennison
purchased with funds from their
estates.
Now a second gift has been
received on behalf of the Whan
family with restrictions to use the
funds at the Elizabeth and Arthur
Barton Farm Campus. The Whan
family’s roots are in agriculture and
the Whan sisters loved flowers and
the outdoors, Maxey said, based
on his many conversations with
both ladies. This recent gift of
$217,000 will be used to assist
in developing the Barton Farm
Campus and Maxey is confident
that the Whan family will earn
special naming recognition,
perhaps in support of the new
greenhouse.
Family legacies are a very
important part in the development of a college campus. The
Whan family realized the importance of a college education, the
impact of a community college to
a community and today are giving
back so that others may benefit
from their vision.
A strong bond for generations . . .
Missouri’s institutions of higher
education are facing the daunting
challenge of a reduction in state
aid for their fiscal year 2012
budgets. This is particularly
difficult for community colleges
in our wonderful state as we have
record-breaking enrollment as
well as the task of transforming
our economy with a new highly
trained workforce. For North
Central Missouri College, our new
programs in health, a beautiful
new world-class facility to train
our nurses, the emergence of our
vocational agriculture program
on the Barton Campus, and an
exciting new investment in alternative energy gives one a sense of
excitement despite the knowledge
that we could have fewer core
resources.
NCMC receives about 3 percent
of its budget from local property
taxes, with tuition and state/
federal aid making up the
remaining 97 percent (relatively balanced between the
two). Therefore, the impact of a
reduction in state aid hits us especially hard!
Emergence from a recession
requires a renewed dedication
of financial support. We simply
would not have accomplished
the remarkable goals of building
Cross Hall and opening our Barton
Campus without the multi- generational support from our alumni
and friends. For this blessing, we
simply cannot thank you enough
and we are so very appreciative.
Now it is more important than
ever for you to communicate with

A budget reduction simply cannot
be accommodated by raising
tuition to the ceiling, as our
students cannot afford an exorbitant increase. NCMC exists to give
area residents the opportunity to
improve their lives and our region
by acquiring advanced knowledge
and skills at a reasonable cost. In
the past, we have counted on you
to provide scholarships and other
support necessary to fill these
gaps and serve as our bonding
agent to hold NCMC together as
we move forward!
We are confident that our enrollment will continue to grow and our
region will flourish as our students
enter the workforce and build a
new foundation for tomorrow’s
economy! North central Missouri
continues to be the best place to
live, work, and raise a family. Our
students continue to work and live
in our region after they complete
their certificates and degrees,
returning the investment you have
made in them. Their optimism
continues to motivate me each
day, and I am fully committed to
meeting today’s challenges and
believe we will receive tomorrow’s
rewards. Please continue to invest
in our students and north central
Missouri!

Carol Poe Gives Back to Alma Mater
W
hen approached in 2005 to
consider supporting North
Central Missouri College, Carol Lee
Poe was enthusiastic and ready
to commit. A 1949 graduate of
Jamesport High School, she later
attended Trenton Junior College,
earning her teaching certificate
with aspirations of becoming a
teacher. She began teaching at a
country school north of Jamesport
and later taught in the nearby
Gallatin School District. She had a
strong appreciation for education
and the importance of helping
others.
Teaching didn’t provide the
answer to Carol’s energy and so
she moved to Kansas City where
she was employed at TWA working
in the communications department. She later transferred to the
retirement division where, once
again, she could help others. Carol
retired in 1993 after contributing
more than 35 years of service to a
profession she dearly loved. She
returned to Jamesport that same
year to care for her elderly mother
and to be closer to her family.

Carol and college classmate Betty
Frances Hall remained the best
of friends long after their college
days at TJC. Often times Betty
Frances, a strong advocate of the
local college, would share stories
of the progress at NCMC and
even bring Carol to the campus
to see the improvements being
made. Carol was so proud of the
increasing number of students,
the long-range plans for new
buildings, and she was especially
excited about the expansion of
the agriculture program. Carol and
other classmates were active in the
Degree Awarded
kick-off of the “Invest in the Vision”
major gift campaign and together,
they returned to campus many
times to discuss future needs of
the growing college. This group
known as the “legacy of learners”
challenged others to believe in the
history of the institution and to
give back to its promising future.
It was here that her interest was
captured and a commitment to
“invest” was secured.
Long before her death, Carol
fulfilled that promise and made
plans to remember her alma mater
with a gift that would benefit
students, enhance campus facilities, and once again, help others.
Carol passed away in December
2009 and today her support of our
College lives on. A significant gift
to the College will be used in the
construction of the Elizabeth and
Arthur Barton Farm Campus and as
promised, she will continue to help
others. Thank you, Carol Lee Poe,
for your support and your investment in North Central Missouri
College.

convention in Indianapolis. The American FFA Degree is the highest honor that an FFA member can earn.
David Nowland, chairman of NCMC’s agriculture/natural resources department, said, “We are very proud that
24 NCMC students are receiving the American FFA Degree.
orth Central Missouri College in Trenton is now
tobacco-free after action taken by its Board of
Trustees. The trustees voted unanimously to endorse
a policy which reads: No tobacco products are
allowed on NCMC’s campuses.
The College administration recommended the policy
to the trustees as a result of a student initiative. The
issue of second-hand smoke, litter and the general
wellness and health of the student body had been
raised by various student groups over the past several
years, and as a result, the Student Senate worked with
the NCMC administration to develop a policy that
addressed those concerns. Dean of Student Services
Kristen Alley remarked, “We are proud of our students
for raising this issue, and proud to have NCMC serve
as a leader in this area of public health.”
NCMC President Neil Nuttall agreed, “This College
continues to grow and is committed to providing a
safe and healthy environment. We see this policy as

importantly, our students and employees.”
“National collegiate data indicates that the majority
of students and employees prefer tobacco-free
campuses. Moving toward tobacco-free also reduces
maintenance costs, decreases costs for fire and
medical insurance as well as for absenteeism and
health care, and promotes sustainability,” according to
Dean Alley. “Furthermore, workplaces are becoming
100% smoke-free. This is the right decision for our
campus and for our students as we prepare them
to work in tobacco-free environments when they
leave NCMC. It is also part of the broader vision for
our College in creating a campus culture of wellness,
sustainability and mutual respect.”
NCMC’s new tobacco-free policy applies to both
its campus in downtown Trenton as well as its new
Barton campus located just south of town.

Student Offered Disney Internship
R
ebecca Turner, a freshman at
and a graduate of Carrollton
High School, has been invited to
participate in the Disney College
Program. This program, offered at
the Walt Disney World Resort in
Florida, is a combination of work
experience and education for
college students and is offered to
a select group of individuals each
year.
NCMC Dean of Students Kristen
Alley said, “This is a wonderful
opportunity for Rebecca. The
Disney internship program is very
well-known and well-respected
on college campuses. It is an
excellent opportunity for students
to apply the knowledge they have
learned in the classroom, as well
as the skills they have developed
through their co-curricular involvement. Disney provides a unique
‘learning laboratory’ for students
that provides practical, hands-on
experience.”
Ms. Turner is serving her internship
during the spring semester 2011,
with her assignment to include
serving as a Food and Beverage
Cast Member. She is living in an
apartment complex designed
for Disney college workers. “I’m
really excited and can’t wait to get
down there,” she said last fall when
the invitation was issued. “Since
I’m leaning toward a business
major, this internship will be very
valuable to me. I expect to learn
about their organization from
the ground up, and I’m planning
on taking part in the business
management, human resources,
and accounting classes they offer.”
NCMC advertises this opportunity to all students, and Rebecca
decided to apply. She was interviewed by telephone by Disney
officials and was offered the
opportunity on Oct. 26, 2010.
Ms. Turner is an A+ student
enrolled in the associate degree
transfer program at North Central
Missouri College. She expects to
return to NCMC to complete her
degree after her internship ends.
Barton Campus Gets a National Boost
C
onstruction of the Barton
Farm Campus got a real boost
recently with the announcement
by US Agriculture Secretary Tom
Vilsack that NCMC was one of 16
projects in 10 states for funding
to create jobs and provide new
economic opportunities. The
projects are being funded through
the Rural Economic Development
Loan Grant Program (REDLG),
which is administered by USDA
Rural Development
Among the 16 projects funded
is a $740,000 loan to the Grundy
Electric Cooperative Inc. in Trenton
to assist North Central Missouri
College with the construction of
the new agriculture and natural
resources campus to expand their
educational programs. The zero
interest loan to the North Central
Missouri College Foundation,
Inc. will allow financial support
toward the construction on the
College’s new agriculture campus.
Currently under construction is the
Plant & Energy Science building
and the Ag Mechanics building
on the campus located southeast
of Trenton and with this loan, the
construction of a third building
emphasizing Animal Sciences will
become a reality.
Development Director for NCMC
Steve Maxey says this loan will
certainly enhance the financial
support needed for construction
of the campus paving the way
for instruction to begin on the
new campus this fall. Nearly 85
students are currently declared
agriculture majors on the NCMC
campus and with new facilities now being constructed, it
is estimated that enrollment
will double once the campus is
completed.
This is the second loan received by
NCMC under the auspices of the
USDA Rural Development Program
with the College receiving a similar
loan to assist in the construction
of Dr. Albert and Vera Cross Hall
– the College’s new allied health
classroom complex on the main
campus of North Central.
Maxey indicated an application
was submitted in late September
of 2010 and through the cooperation of Grundy Electric Cooperative
and many supportive partnerships
in completing the application, the
announcement of loan approval
was great news for the College and
its major gift campaign. To date,
over $3.6 million has been received
in cash and pledges to support
the new campus estimated to cost
between $5 and 6 million. The
$740,000. loan approved this week
is not included in the dollars raised
to date.
