Community Service At NMI, our motto is “Honor the Mariner�. We encourage all of our students to give back some of their time by providing service to others with integrity and pride. Our team develops our students into responsible citizens by providing opportunities to develop their teamwork and leadership skills. As a graduation requirement, students must complete thirty (30) hours of community service during each spring and fall semester. At the end of each semester, all community service documentation must submitted to the Community Service Coordinator. Any student not fulfilling these requirements may request an extension to complete his/her community service hours. Extensions are only granted in extreme circumstances and degrees will be withheld until this requirement is fulfilled. All community service hours must becompleted prior to graduation.
