Student
Success Stories Part 1
Kate Watkins,
a stand out storm volleyball player for two years, now spends her free time
studying to be a nurse at DCCC where she says she applies some of the concepts
she learned on the court.
“Just like
volleyball, nursing can be tough,” said Watkins, a 21-year-old who works in
teams with her classmates in problem-based nursing exercises. “I learned that
everyone has different strengths and brings some different to the table. I also
learned that we have to respect each other.”
Watkins is a
May 2012 candidate to receive her Associate Degree in Nursing. She hopes to
pursue her B.S.N. at Winston-Salem State University and eventually get her
master’s degree in nursing.
Setting
educational goals and working hard to achieve them brings a great feeling of
accomplishment. It builds self-esteem, and increasing self-confidence.
Education opens up many doors of opportunity that normally would not open up
for people.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!
