Meet Lacey Fuzzell, President  

BSN student, Sophomore 

Hometown: Springfield, MO 

Why did you choose Clarkson College?  

Everyone was very helpful during the application and paperwork process with me being out of state. When I visited the campus, it was so welcoming and friendly. I decided this was the environment I wanted to be a part of. 

Why did you choose your major? 

I felt God wanted me to explore the field of nursing. I like helping people and want to make a positive impact on those I come in contact with.  

What are some of your interests (hobbies, leisurely activities, etc.)?  

I like to draw for fun when I have the time, spend time outdoors, hang out with friends and watch movies, NFL and Nascar. 

What is the best part of living on campus?  

The College isn't too far away! I don't get very excited when it comes to driving in the snow, so living on campus suits me.  

What would you like to accomplish in the Residence Hall Council this year?  

Since RHC is new, our first year will consist of laying the groundwork. We hope to be a voice for the residents and start creating a community of involvement. 

Meet Carolyn Younes, Vice President 

BSN student, Sophomore  

Hometown: Kearney, NE 

Why did you choose Clarkson College?  

I chose Clarkson College because I did not want to go to a big school. I also picked the College because I am still in Nebraska and am close enough to my family and can go home when I need to. There are also several different hospitals that we can go to with clinical and gain different experiences. 

Why did you choose your major?  

I chose nursing because I wanted to do something in the health care field, and nursing fits my personality the best.  

What are some of your interests (hobbies, leisurely activities, etc.)? 

I love scrap booking, making jewelry and, of course, shopping.  

What is the best part of living on campus?  

The best part about living on campus is not having to worry about leaving home early enough to find parking. It's also really convenient, and I don't have to worry about paying rent every month. 

What would you like to accomplish in the Residence Hall Council this year?  

I would like to see an opportunity to do community service and to help the residents get more involved through activities.  

Meet Julie Roth, Secretary 

Physical Therapist Assistant/Health Care Business Management student, Junior  

Hometown: Papillion, NE  

Why did you choose Clarkson College?  

The faculty members are friendly, and it was one of the few colleges in Nebraska that had a Health Care Business program. This year I have the opportunity to start a dual degree in Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) without changing schools. 

Why did you choose your major?  

I started as a Health Care Business major because I wasn't sure about working with patients, but I wanted to impact health care. Now, I have the desire to start interacting with patients, so I applied for the PTA program. 

What are some of your interests (hobbies, leisurely activities, etc.)? 

I enjoy reading, being with friends, hand bell choir and shopping. 

What is the best part of living on campus?  

It is great having the resources of the college available in only a two minute walk. 

What would you like to accomplish in the Residence Hall Council this year?  

I hope everyone in the Residence Hall can come together more often.

Why did you choose Clarkson College?  

I really like that it is a small college. I also like the fact that I can have a part-time job while going to school. 

Why did you choose your major?  

I have wanted to study sonography forever, and to get into sonography, I need to be RT certified. While looking into Radiology, I noticed all the other modalities and it really sparked my interest. 

What are some of your interests (hobbies, leisurely activities, etc.)? 

I love reading and watching my favorite television shows - "Dancing with the Stars," "Bones," "House," "Private Practice" and "Grey's Anatomy." I also enjoy spending time with my family and boyfriend. 

What is the best part of living on campus?  

It is very convenient and only takes two minutes to walk to classes. 

What would you like to accomplish in the Residence Hall Council this year?  

I hope to help students to get more involved in the Residence Hall. Being the treasurer, I want to make a budget that the Council can follow to provide more activities for the residents.
