Getting my degree was one of the most satisfying things I have done in my lifetime. I started working towards it in 1997 so it took me 20 years of a classes here and there to fulfill my goal. This quote from former President Calvin Coolidge is one I not only took to heart, but in my opinion lived. "Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "Press On!" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.

- WENDELL MALCOLM, CLASS OF 2017

Since graduating, I’ve gotten married, had two daughters, and bought a new car. My husband is currently deployed, but I continue to work full-time. I work extended care and currently have hopes of starting for my bachelor’s degree next year when my husband returns home. Eastern has given me the chance to obtain a position where I can provide for my family and have a fulfilling career. I was given a solid base to build and grow as a nurse and continue to build on all I learned at Eastern Community and Technical College. I’m proud to be an alumni.

- AMBER BROADWATER, CLASS OF 2016

I was able to get a new vehicle I’m the grateful owner of a GMC Suburban, which will serve the purposes of my microbusiness well. I was also able to donate my previous vehicle to a local resident of Seneca Rocks, WV, who was in bad need of a reliable vehicle.
