Student success stories part 1


Student success stories part 1
Katie Watkins, a standout 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 something 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 purse 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 increases self-confidence. Education opens up many doors of opportunity that normally would not open up for people.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!!
