Campus Involvement With A Purpose with Dawsen

Transcript

Let’s meet Dawsen, a freshman from Sheridan, Wyoming, majoring in both Health Science and Strategic Communications. At Casper College, students can engage in a wide variety of clubs, enjoy exciting athletic competitions, and even pursue dual major degrees like Dawsen. Dawsen, we can’t wait to hear about your experiences. Take it away.

– Thank you, Alex. Welcome to Wyoming, everyone. I have always wanted to help people, from working at different colleges, in the fast food industry, and as a certified nursing assistant. Seeing people safe and happy has always been my passion. At Casper College, I can earn a degree where I can continue to help those around me. My passion for helping others continues in my desire to help other students. Helping other students means sharing knowledge, offering support, and fostering a collaborative environment. It involves tutoring, providing steady resources, and encouraging peers. This enhances learning experiences and builds community, making our education more enriching and enjoyable for everyone. Casper College has an atmosphere of genuine appreciation and love for its students. From your first admissions council to beyond graduation, the staff truly care for you every step of the way, mentally, physically, and emotionally. To me, helping other students goes beyond the classroom. It’s going out of your way to say hello, studying together, inviting others to activities, or just sharing a smile. We are all on this journey together, so helping each other whenever possible is a must. At Casper College, students have a multitude of opportunities to be involved. Students can join organizations that have their desires, beliefs, and interests at heart. Whether you’re into running, eSports, fire science, dance, or anything in between, there’s something for everyone. For me, it’s student government, which keeps me busy as the freshman representative. I also work as a student ambassador in the Admissions and Student Success Office, which is another great way I stay involved. A college education is more than just learning skills for a job. It’s learning how to interact with people. At Casper College, I have met people from all over the world, which has improved my skills as a CNA and a student. Alex, back to you.

– Dawsen, thank you for providing some great examples of all the activities that students can be involved in at Casper College. It’s definitely a campus that provides opportunities for students, not just in the classroom, but in student life and government, thanks again.
