Christie: Today has been a very busy work day. I would have loved to have spent some time on-line here at Hucks nation. I want to let people know how grateful I am for the chance to continue to be in a leadership position at NIC. We have much to be proud of at the college as well as many more challenges and opportunities ahead. This campaign unlike my others in the past was the most daunting. For candidates one minute your up because someone sent you a nice note and a contribution, and then the next minute your down after you read a nasty letter to the editor. Fun stuff!!! But I think all candidates gain from the experience so it is worth it.

Question: Any suggestions for Christie, newby Ken Howard, the other NIC trustees re: what they need to do to keep the college moving ahead?
