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 team 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 education 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.
