Alumni and Friends
Alumni, the Northern Michigan University faculty, staff and administrators remain committed to serving you, whether you crossed the commencement stage last year or decades ago.
How can we help you continue to engage in lifelong learning, reach the next level of your professional career and remain connected to your alma mater? We’d love to hear from you. Call us at 906-227-2450 with your stories, questions and ideas. Drop your old professors a line when you have the time to update them on what’s been happening with you. You can quickly find all their contact information on the faculty directory page.
As Northern Michigan University and the Physics Department strive for continuous improvement, we would be very interested to know what aspects of your NMU education have served you best in your career endeavors and what areas of weakness did you have when you entered your professional field.
We strongly encourage you to keep your alumni information up to date so that we can let you know about what’s happening at NMU. The alumni Web site has an online update form for your convenience.
We hope to see you back on campus for a visit, but if that’s not possible, stay connected virtually. Welcome back to NMU!

NMU Physics alumnus Jay Tasson of Ishpeming, who is currently pursuing his PhD in physics at Indiana University, was recently mentioned in the nationally distributed APS (American Physical Society) News. Jay is working with Dr. Alan Kostelecky at IU searching for possible violations of general relativity (Einsteins' theory of gravity) through the investigation of Lorentz symmetry. NMU physics faculty, Dr. Neil Russell, has collaborated with Dr. Kostelecky for many years on this investigation and continues to work in this field (see photos on this web site of the posters Dr. Russell created involving this work). Congratulations to Jay for his outstanding progress.
