In the spotlight with... Nicola Whitmore

Nicola Whitmore joined Newcastle-under-Lyme College two years ago to study a Foundation degree (Fd) in Contemporary Art Practice.  Originally a nurse from Leicester, Nicola aged 37 moved to Staffordshire to retrain in the creative industries. 

Whilst at NULC Nicola has overcome many obstacles, being a mature student with dyslexia Nicola was daunted by the thought of starting education again but she says she has made the most of the support on offer from the College.  “With dyslexia all my lecturers have supported me throughout the course, I have received one-to-one tutorials and with the Learning Support Officer.”

At NULC students are encouraged to take part in live briefs, which is something Nicola has made the most of during her two years of study. “I painted a mural at Thisley Hough High School and had my work displayed at the Victoria Mill Art Centre.”

Nicola reflects on her time at NULC saying “I have really enjoyed my time at NULC, it has been brilliant to meet like minded people with the same ambition and determination as you.  The environment is more mature and having a dedicated University-Centre is brilliant.”

Nicola says she would recommend NULC to anyone looking to study a creative subject “I feel the support and commitment to the students is 100% and I have gained more confidence in what I want to achieve in life.”

Nicola now intends to launch her own Art Café named Sublime, which will provide an area for local artists and students to exhibit their work and relax in an informal atmosphere.

Nicola’s art work is on display at the NULC Art Exhibition until Saturday 25 June 2011.  To view the exhibition opening times click here.

NULC do 'something funny for money'

If there's one thing that NULC staff and students like to do its ‘something funny for money’ in aid of Comic Relief.  NULC was a hub of activity on Friday 18 March with fancy dress, bake sales, waxing and the most talked about event of the day, the NULC FlashMob.

Dance Lecturer Faye Matthews rounded up her troupes which included students, staff and even a member of the senior management team.  Then headed to the new Sainsbury’s store in Newcastle-under-Lyme, where they wowed the crowds and are now rapidly becoming an online phenomenon.

Other activities taking place throughout the day included a fancy dress competition which resulted in a monkey and pirates roaming the corridors!  A yummy bake sale organised by Early Years students, Fun Run by Sports Performance and Excellence students, leg waxing in the Transform Salon.  As well as various fund raising efforts by Learner Services, Starbucks staff and the Students’ Union.

The money is still being counted but so far NULC have managed to raise over £500.00, which is a fantastic amount.  Thank you to everyone who took part and did ‘something funny for money’.
