President Luis Pedraja of Quinsigamond Community College congratulates QCC's four 2021 Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society All-MA Academic Team members: Edmilse, Alex, Vincent, and Bradley.
Our final Quinsigamond Community College All-MA Academic Team member is Vincent Strzelecki. Everyone, meet Vincent!
"My name is Vincent Carl Strzelecki and I came to Quinsigamond Community College to pursue a degree in Computer Science. QCC’s math and writing centers both were vital parts of my education.
You will often find me building, modifying, or experimenting with things, and I always encourage others to join in. My favorite core school subject is science, particularly physics.
My life goal is to help as many people as I can, and I am working hard to continue down the path of video game development, so I can create games that are inexpensive, highly accessible, and greatly enjoyable."
In addition to being named to the 2021 Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society All-MA Academic Team, Vincent was also the recipient of the New Century Workforce Pathway Scholar award and a $1,250 stipend. Congratulations, Vincent!
On to our next student, Bradley Sylvestre, from Quinsigamond Community College!
"My name is Bradley Sylvestre and I am currently part of Quinsigamond Community College’s Class of 2022 Nurse Education program, and I am loving it. Despite classes being online and having limiting time in a physical classroom, I have been able to learn from the best and apply that knowledge in my clinical settings. I was able to go to a local nursing home in Westborough and make a difference with the elderly; see a birth at UMass Hospital in Leominster, and have been able to bond with patients in need of companionship. I was able to do all these things thanks to the hardworking educators at QCC, who were constantly advocating for me and my fellow nursing students, despite the grueling process of nursing school during a pandemic.
QCC is a community college, and for me, a new nursing student from Rhode Island, QCC has become my community. I used to work at a windowless warehouse, Monday – Friday, when I decided that I wanted to have a career where I would be able to something meaningful. I quickly became an Emergency Medical Technician, bringing patients from walks-of -life to the closest emergency departments. It was here that I met emergency room nurses, who were literally keeping their patients’ alive. It was through this experience that I realized I wanted to become a nurse.
Now, I work as an Emergency Room Technician at UMass Memorial Medical Center (a level 1 trauma center) in the Emergency Department. I hope to do what those nurses showed me so long ago, when I was still unsure of my own career path. My goal is to be an emergency department registered nurse and specialize in pediatric emergency care, where personal connection and quality nursing makes such a big impact on little ones and family alike."
Congratulations on being named to the 2021 Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society All-MA Academic Team, Bradley, and best of luck as you continue pursuing your career!
Next up, we have Quinsigamond Community College student Alex Riopel!
"My name is Alexander Riopel and I chose QCC because of its MassTransfer program with UMass Amherst. Due to COVID-19, this year has been a little different from others; however, QCC has done a great job adapting to online classes and helping students make the transition as smooth as possible.
I am currently a business transfer major and plan on pursing a finance degree at a four-year university in the fall. QCC has done a great job preparing me for a four-year university. As the former president of QCC’s Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) Honor Society, I was fortunate to be part of a group that affected real change within the community. Along with many other students and staff members, we worked to make our community and the world a better place.
Outside of PTK, I have continued to push myself academically by participating in the Commonwealth Honors Program. In addition to my extracurricular activities and academics, I consistently work 20-plus hours a week, to support myself financially while in school. I am proud to say that I have made the most of my time at QCC, and look forward to continuing on to a four-year university."
Congratulations, Alex, on being named to the 2021 Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society All-MA Academic Team!
We've reached the last day of our Community College Excellence Week celebration. Thank you all for following along! We have several remarkable students to introduce you to today, and we are starting with Edmilse Diaz from Quinsigamond Community College!
"My name is Edmilse Diaz and I am a part of Quinsigamond Community College’s Class of 2022 Dental Hygiene program. I am originally from the Dominican Republic and moved to the U.S when I was young.
I received a Bachelor’s in Psychology from Saint Michael’s College in 2015. Throughout my life, I have continued to pursue learning and challenge myself. I decided to pursue a career in dental hygiene because I wanted to help raise awareness on the importance of oral health and its effect on a person’s overall health. I love working with my hands, and feel I am making a difference in the health of my patients.
I also train in Jiu Jitsu and mantis boxing in my spare time. I love spending time with my dog, 'Johnny,' and when the sun is shining, you can often catch me on a hiking trail somewhere."
