2021-2022 NCC Ambassadors Selected

Nash Community College recently held an orientation and leadership session to welcome its Student Ambassadors for the 2021-2022 academic year.

Students are selected for the program based on application, letters of recommendation and an interview. They must be enrolled at NCC as a full-time student, maintain a minimum grade point average of 3.0 and demonstrate a commitment to academic and career success.

Ambassadors will complete service hours representing NCC on and off-campus. They assist with campus events, campus tours and promote the college.

“We are excited to welcome this group of ambassadors to represent NCC on campus and in the community,” Denise Beamer, Coordinator of Donor and Alumni Relations said. “These ambassadors bring a variety of experiences, great energy and impressive accomplishments to support NCC initiatives.”

Aaron Dornseif is a super senior in the NCC Career and College Promise program, earning college degree credits while completing high school graduation requirements. After graduation, he plans to transfer to a four-year university to study Chemical Engineering. Dornseif wanted to become a Student Ambassador to enhance his leadership skills and meet new people on campus and in the community. He is proud that his hard work and dedication to his studies have paid off with his excellent grades. When not studying chemistry or biology, he enjoys running and hanging out with friends and family.

Brueshaber said his biggest achievement and proudest moment was earning his Eagle Scout with the Boy Scouts of America.

Kody Wooten is in the Associate Degree Nursing program and plans to become an Emergency Room or ICU Nurse.
