Terrapin Networks Offers Scholarship at Northwestern Michigan College

Traverse City, MI, February 04, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Terrapin Networks, announces its NMC Scholarship to assist a second year student at Northwestern Michigan College.

Terrapin Networks, an IT Solutions company, is offering a scholarship to a second year student attending Northwestern Michigan College. The scholarship will provide $1000 to a second year NMC student enrolled in the Information Technology program. Timothy Gillen and Susan Gillen, owners of Terrapin Networks, attended NMC, as did their children. Tim hopes that the scholarship recipient will also intern at Terrapin Networks.

Looking to give back to the community and advance their own business endeavors, the Gillens embarked on offering the scholarship as a positive way to achieve both goals. “My wife Susan and I both think that NMC is a very rare and valuable resource for a town our size,” Mr. Gillen was quoted as saying. To apply for the scholarship, second year technology students are encouraged to contact their guidance counselor.
