A Pride of Lions

When applications for the Alumni Legacy Scholarship crossed our desk before the 2021-2022 academic year, we knew there would be standout students. But no one stood out quite the way Hannah Deaver did.
Hannah is a senior in the university鈥檚 bachelor of nursing degree program. Her application said she hopes to become a nurse practitioner and practice as a family practitioner in underserved communities in 黑丝内射视频.
She said she鈥檚 working hard to keep her grade point average so she can attend an excellent graduate school. The scholarship, she said, would allow her to quit her job and focus on her studies while preparing for the N-CLEX board exams for nurses.
All of this is remarkable and admirable but also typical of the high performing students in the 黑丝内射视频 nursing program.
Here鈥檚 where the story becomes unique.
鈥淢y parents have raised a remarkable generation of 黑丝内射视频 alumni as five of my siblings have already graduated from the University of 黑丝内射视频 - Fort Smith, and I am next in line but followed closely by my little brother,鈥� she wrote.
She is the sixth in line and holding the door open for her little brother.
鈥淚 am proud to be a 黑丝内射视频 student, and I am proud of the legacy of sibling alumni that I come from,鈥� Deaver said. 鈥淭he challenge I face today is to stay diligent in my studies. Most of my siblings graduated with a high GPA. So it鈥檚 a fun challenge to achieve the same. There鈥檚 nothing like a little sibling to keep motivated in your studies.鈥�
Who are these motivators?
Heather Davis - Biology
Hunnt Hickman - Automotive Technologies and Electrical Engineering
Holly Hickman - Mathematics with Teacher Licensure
Hailey Carty - Paralegal Studies
Hope Chronister - Radiology Technology
Little brother Hart Hickman started in fall 2021 with a plan to study electrical engineering.
We are sad to hear from students that they can鈥檛 wait to finish their college degrees so they can head off to larger cities and 鈥渂etter鈥� opportunities. But not Hannah Deaver.
鈥淲ithin the next 5 years, I hope to secure a nursing position in one of Fort Smith鈥檚 hospitals,鈥� she said. 鈥淚 love my hometown and want to stay and work in the region to see the outcome of all the exciting changes that are happening in the community, like the new VA medical center. There are many opportunities for nurses to help the community, and I am eager to start.鈥�
We are eager to see how Hannah and her siblings will help the community.
