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 to the table. I also learned that we have to respect
each other.”
Watkins is a
May 2010 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 increases self-confidence. Education
opens up many doors of opportunity that normally would not open up for people.
Choose the Right!!!
