Bucsanyi Named 2020 Dr. Mary Hood Texas Region Scholar

Haley Bucsanyi, a student at Northeast Texas Community College in Texas, has been named the 2020 Dr. Mary Hood Texas Region Scholar and will receive a $1,500 scholarship.

Bucsanyi is a first-generation college student majoring in Biological Science. She volunteers with a local nonprofit cat rescue dedicated to helping the feline population. She also volunteers with the Daingerfield State Park Little Pines Friends. Last fall, she was selected to serve as a Texas State Parks and Wildlife Ambassador, and her career goal is to become a Texas State Park Biologist so that she can work to manage and conserve the native park ecosystems.

Whatley Center closed for Fall

Northeast Texas Community College has made the decision to close the Whatley Center for the Performing Arts through the end of December.

"The health and safety of our patrons and community is our top priority and we feel that this is the right thing to do given the current circumstances with COVID-19," Carolyn Franks, Whatley Director, said. "The cancellation of our eagerly-anticipated events is very disappointing to both us and our patrons. We will look at putting together a reduced season in January and make a decision on spring shows later this fall."

Free GED/ESL classes offered

The Adult Education Department at Northeast Texas Community College is accepting new and returning students for its GED (General Educational Development) and ESL (English as a Second Language) programs. Those interested in participating in either of these free educational programs should call to make an appointment for registration.

Four NTCC students named Leaders of Promise

Four students at Northeast Texas Community College were among the 207 Phi Theta Kappa members named as 2020 Coca-Cola Leaders of Promise Scholars and will each receive a $1,000 scholarship.

The NTCC students receiving this honor include Carolina Alcocer-Salas, of Chapel Hill, Hannah Barnes of Marietta, Jaidyn Thompson of Daingerfield, and Maritza Quinones of Mount Pleasant.

NTCC Presidential Scholar devoting long hours to pandemic

What nurses call “Code Blue” rings into the minds of attendants working the “covid floor” of the Titus Regional Medical Center. NTCC honors student, Maritza Quinones responds, putting on PPE (personal protective equipment) which includes a hair net, a surgical mask, an N-95 mask, a plastic face shield, two pairs of gloves, and foot covers. (Such “equipment” makes one very hot). A Certified Nursing Assistant planning one day to become an OB-GYN, Quinones has been working 40-60 hours a week during the summer at the hospital, and spending almost half that time in the COVID-19 ward.

Ag hosts drive-thru Farmer's Market

The Work4College farm crew has been working hard to safely care for our facility, animals and plants!

The crew would love to have you stop by and check out their offerings from 10 am to 2 pm. The lunch menu is TBD. Produce, canned items, eggs, and plants available at the market.
