From staff reports
The Technical College of the Lowcountry recognized 11 associate degree nursing (ADN) graduates during its Dec. 10 pinning ceremony at the Beaufort Mather Campus.
During the ceremony, graduates received their pins and lamps, a nod to Florence Nightingale who carried a lamp to light her path as she cared for the sick and dying soldiers during the Crimean War.
TCL’s two-year ADN program prepares graduates to practice as registered nurses. Students experience on-campus learning using high-tech simulation equipment and receive intense additional hands-on practice at clinical sites located throughout Beaufort, Jasper, Hampton and Colleton counties.
The graduates are Stacy Bajorek, Krystal Deitsch, Isabella Fallon, Sharonda Jenkins, Rashida Johnson, Kerri Jones, Kimberly Lunceford, Katy Sandoval, Brittany Shuman, Kayla Sikes and Nikole Wright.
The Technical College of the Lowcountry is the region’s primary provider of higher education and workforce training. The public, two-year community college serves approximately 5,000 students annually.
