“Thought I graduated from an associate degree program, I felt that my instructors provided me with the same theory and knowledge as those students completing their bachelor’s degree program in clinical laboratory science,” Mishak added.

“When I started my clinical rotations at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, I felt that my formal education at DCCC prepared me to succeed at every challenge that I faced. Since I was the among first MLT students to rotate through WFUBMC, I think this strong foundation in laboratory science enabled me to dispel many of the preconceived ideas about MLT’s regarding their education and what they are able to do”. after a year working as a medical laboratory technician at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, he was promoted to a Hematology Analytical Specialist position. This involves oversight of the hematology, coagulation, and flow cytometry sections of the laboratory.

Part 1

Chris Mishak, who earned a degree in Medical Laboratory Technology from DCCC in 1998, is the second MLT graduate from DCCC to be accepted into Physician assistant’s school.

In August 2011, Mishak will begin studying at Emory University in Atlanta to become a physician’s assistant.

He says DCCC prepared him well to transfer to Winston-Salem state University, Where he earned his graduate degree in clinical laboratory science in 2004. Since then, he has worked in the lab at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.

     "I learned pretty much everything that I needed to know about laboratory science at DCCC. Many of the clinical applications that I learned there I still use today either in my medical volunteering in phlebotomy or in the duties of my current job, which included training new technologies on cell identification.” Said Mishak

     It is pretty easy to be successful in school. If students work hard and honorably, it’s not difficult at all. All students need to do is study, put in the time; it’s as simple as that. If students aren’t willing to study now, it w8ill be very difficult to develop this habit later on. Therefore, I suggest that students work hard in their studies and being good people, doing nothing to get them in trouble during high school. By doing so, they will enjoy success during high school and throughout their lifetime.

Student Sucess Statement

Student Success 

Statement

“There is no happiness in sin, and when we depart from the path of righteousness we begin to do those things which will inevitably lead us to unhappiness and misery and loss of freedom.”

-     N. Eldon Tanner

This statement means that when you act and do inappropriate things there will always be consequences for your actions. When you do something wrong you don’t always feel happy for what you have done, when you stop doing what is right you start to feel less happy about yourself and things around you because you know you did inappropriate things. However always choose the right in order to feel good about yourself and your accomplishments.

          Andrea Packer anticipates graduating with B.A in Education from Catawba in December 2011 and then enrolling in the Master of Arts in Teaching program from Salem College, also offered on the Davidson Campus Packer spends her days on the Davidson Campus working 29 hours a week as a teaching assistant from instructor in the DCCC early Childhood Education program.

          “Not only did receiving this scholarship make me study harder and be the best I could be, but it also allowed me to graduate in May 2010 with my associate degree totally paid for, “I couldn’t believe I had my first degree, and I was debt free. What a wonderful blessing.

          If students work hard during high school, complete all assignments on time, and demonstrate a bright, positive attitude toward school, learning, and other people, then they can be highly successful as a high school student and qualify for academic scholarships also. All they need to do is put in time, study time. All the hard work and effort during high school will definitely pay off. They will be rewarded for their hard work. But if they just mess around during their high school years and neglect their studies, use drugs, and mistreat others, then they can expect to fall short of what could have been their rewards of scholarships and other opportunities, and they will suffer in the short and long term. Invest in yourself. Give yourself opportunities of a lifetime by succeeding in high school on a super high one. Then you can:
