“Though I graduated from an associate degree program, if felt that my instructor 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 hat my formal education at DCCC prepared me to succeed at very challenge that I faced. Since I was the among first MLT students to rotate though WFUBMC, I think this strong foundation in laboratory science enabled me to dispel many of the preconceived ideas about MLTs 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 specials position. This involves oversight of the hematology, coagulation, and flow cytometer sections of the laboratory.

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 undergraduate degree in clinical laboratory science in 2004. Since then, he has worked in the lab at Children’s Health care of Atlanta.

“I learned pretty much everything that I need 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 includes training new technologists 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 the students need to do study, put in the time; it’s as simple as that. If students aren’t willing to study now, it will be very difficult to develop this habit later on. Therefore, I suggest that students work hard in their studies and at 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 life time.

Student success story part 6

Andrea packer anticipates graduating with a 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 day on the Davidson campus working 29 hours a week as a teaching assistant for instructors 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,” she said “I couldn't believe I have 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 scholarship also. All they need to do is put in the 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 scholarship and their opportunities, and 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 note. Then you can:

Andrea packer – without the prestigious DCCC presidential scholarship she won in 2008, Andrea Packer, a 2010 DCCC honor graduate, says she doubts she would already be pursuing her baccalaureate degree form Catawba College. “I cannot say thank you enough to whomever paid for my education, and I am going to continue to do my best to make them happy that they invested in me,” she said.

Since august 2010, packer, 20, has been working toward her bachelor’s degree in early childhood education form Catawba College, and she doesn’t have to leave DCCC’s Davidson Campus to do so. She said she likes the convenience of leaving her teaching assistant’s job in one DCCC building and walking only steps to her evening Catawba classes where she is taking history, statistics and education courses.

·         Many people avoid making decisions their whole lives, so their decisive faculty of discrimination, becomes rusty and dies. Such people become totally dependent on others. When we study the four functions of the mind – buddhi, the faculty of decisiveness; ego, the principle of identity; chitta, the store house of impressions; and manas, the importer and exporter of sensations and experience – then we become aware of the power of the will. Will power is that something  within us that comes forward and says, “Do this. It will be help full for you.” Training the internal functions help us to understand the decisive faculty of the mind, without which we cannot be successful.

·         Watch what you do on a daily basis. We become what we do and think about. If you think about. If you think about nothing-you will become nothing. If you think about being a great student- you will become a great student. If you think about being honest-you will be honest. The activities and thoughts that fill your day are keys to living successfully in school and throughout your adult life.

·         Students know they should learn to decide on time, but they don’t do it. But they always say, “Well, I knew it. I understood the key, but did not act in time.” Though they may think correctly, and accurately understand the situation properly, they suddenly lose confidence. This is a word of competition; someone else is always trying to attain the same thing we are. So if we do not decide on time, someone else will attain what we want. Time is valuable in the external world. A tender bamboo can be easily bent, but if we try to bend a mature bamboo, it will break. That which we have to do today, we should not postpone for tomorrow, but we should also not make decisions in haste. We may have a seatback if we make a wrong decision, but our mistakes will teach us.

·         We must learn from the successes and mistakes of others. When we see another student succeeding greatly and honorably, learn how they do it and pattern your studies after theirs. Also, on the other hand, when you see other students failing miserably, learn how they do it and AVOID doing what they-do or else you will join them in the failure’s club.

·         Make the most of your time and opportunities while at school. Don’t waist valuable time.

HOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL INSCHOOL

PART 1

Some experts say the difference between good students and poor students isn’t mainly ability. Instead, its how students organize themselves to use their abilities. A little organization can produce amazing results!

Get organized:

Have a homework agenda or scribbler to keep track of your assignments, and always carry it.

Ask the teacher for some outside help when the classroom explanation is not adequate for you. 

Use scribblers to put your notes in, and keep the organized.

Have phone numbers for classmates, especially of one who will be your “homework buddy”. This is someone in your class who collects hand –outs and assignments for you when you are absent from school. You can borrow your buddy’s notes when you return to school, and you can do the same for this friend.

Ask questions you are unsure of something.
