Massey, Capps named for academic excellence

3 May 2007 - Two students from Johnston Community College have been selected as winners of the North Carolina Community College System Academic Excellence Award. Pictured from left to right are Erica Massey of Smithfield, PHS graduate, and Kelly Jo Capps of Pine Level. The two were chosen based on their academic achievements and outstanding leadership.

Massey will graduate from JCC’s radiography program in May. She plans to work at Wayne Memorial Hospital while she continues her education in the nuclear medicine program at JCC. The daughter of Michael and Debbie Massey, she served as a student ambassador for two years and is a member of the Radiography Club.

“It is a great honor to be the recipient of the Academic Excellence Award,” Massey said. “I have been working very hard on building my career in radiology at Johnston Community College and this award is a great way to represent the college wherever I go.”

Dr. Don Reichard, College president, praised the students for their hard work and academic success. “We at JCC are so proud of the outstanding achievements of Kelly and Erica,” Reichard said. “We wish them continued success in the future.”

Capps and Massey were two of 116 students enrolled in community colleges across the state to receive the award. They were honored April 24 at a luncheon at the Hilton North Raleigh.
