Did you guess that Noseman is Nick Ferreira? Nick is an alum who graduated from LLCC in 1993. He started working at the college in 2005 as an adjunct. After a few years, he was promoted to program coordinator part-time for emergency services and health, and then later moved to a full-time position. Currently Nick serves as program director.

In less than two weeks some of our mild-mannered faculty and staff will transform into superheroes visible only to those who tune into the LEAGUE Zoom Kickoff event on Professional Development Day, March 30. Did you correctly guess the identity of yesterday’s LEAGUE superfriend?

If you guessed Adrienne Range, assistant professor of anatomy and physiology for the department of natural and agricultural sciences, then you are correct! Ada started teaching high school biology, including anatomy, in 2005. She began as a dual credit anatomy instructor for LLCC in 2013 and was asked to adjunct night courses while still teaching full-time for the high school. Ada was hired full-time at LLCC in 2015.  Since then, she has taught courses at the main campus, Litchfield and Jacksonville, including teaching most summers.

Can you guess this member of the Justice LEAGUE?
Superhero name:  Noseman
Superpower:  He can smell an ambulance from a mile away and teach students how to work in one.
