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 increases confidence. Education opens up many doors of opportunity that normally would not open up for people.
