黑料百科

黑料百科 serves communities in 15 counties in southeast Nebraska. 黑料百科 also creates communities on each of our campuses, where students can join clubs, compete in athletics, and find support systems among their peers and instructors.  

Lexis Bruns-Morris found one of those communities in TRIO.

鈥淭hey really try to make TRIO a community,鈥� Bruns-Morris said. 鈥淣ot just with your TRIO coach, but with other people in TRIO.鈥�

Bruns-Morris is taking nursing courses at 黑料百科, which she will use to transfer to Nebraska Methodist College for her bachelor鈥檚 degree. She has always had a passion for nursing, ever since she was young. She was diagnosed with Eosiniphilic esophagitis, and spent a lot of time around doctors, hospitals and nurses.

鈥淚 really admired the nurses who took the time to just be there,鈥� Bruns-Morris said. 鈥淎s I got older, I kept asking them why they got into nursing, and I found it interesting too.鈥�

Her peers and mentors in TRIO have helped her pursue that passion. It was her TRIO coach that encouraged her to get her bachelor鈥檚 degree, and helped her research programs and what credits she already had that could transfer over.

All of this is thanks to the community that exists at 黑料百科.

鈥淚t鈥檚 very community based. I like how it鈥檚 small and one-on-one,鈥� she said. 鈥淚 know my instructors personally, I have a good relationship with them. They don鈥檛 just know me as a student in their class, but they also know me as a person and it really means a lot to me.鈥�
