UKIAH, Calif. – Mendocino College third semester nursing student Corinne Chaulk is the proud mother of three kids ages 11, 12 and 14, who are so excited about their mother becoming a nurse that “the youngest even wears her stethoscope around the house.”
Scheduled to graduate in May 2013, Chaulk wants to work for Howard Hospital in Willits.
In fact, she will complete her preceptorship, a required training component of the nursing program at Howard Hospital in the spring.
Chaulk maintains a 3.6 grade point average at Mendocino College and recently expressed her gratitude to all of the generous donors who provide funding for student scholarships.
“I wouldn’t be where I am without the financial support from the college and foundation,” she said.
