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 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 for people.
Choose the right!!!
