ANDREW NIELSEN: COMMUNICATION IS KEY
Communication is key to Andrew Nielsen's role at Nationwide - a skill he honed
at Columbus State.
Nielsen started his higher education at Columbus State, earning an associate of
arts degree. He credits his Columbus State faculty for their high standards and
willingness to work with him outside of class times. The associate of arts
fulfills the first two years of a bachelor's degree, and Nielsen went on to earn
a bachelor's in the History of Art at Ohio State. That got him in the door at
Nationwide.
Now, Nielsen works with a network of brokers, salespeople and underwriters to
sell insurance solutions to employers.
"A lot of courses at both Columbus State and Ohio State focused on writing and
communication, which helped set me up for my role at Nationwide," Nielsen says.
"I’m glad that I was held to a high standard so that I could be ready to get a
job that has helped provide for my family financially."

ABEL KIFLE ANDEBRHAN: HIGH SCHOOL STANDOUT
The Columbus State 2020 spring graduating class included 17 high school seniors
who earned a high school diploma the same month they earned a college degree.
The feat is made possible by Ohio’s College Credit Plus (CCP) program. CCP
allows students to take Columbus State classes and earn high school and college
credits simultaneously. Abel Kifle Andebrhan, who received an Associate of
Science degree, is one of those students.
The 18-year-old from Pickerington North High School began taking Columbus State
classes his freshman year. “College Credit Plus was a great option for me,” says
Andebrhan. “I had to learn a lot about time management and to balance everything
with work and social life, but I made it happen because it's important to me.”

education credits you need to transfer to a bachelor’s degree. In these classes,
you’ll learn to think critically about questions like, “How does scarcity
influence economics?” and “How do geographers understand the relationship
between people and places?” and even, “Where do we come from?”

ZACHARY GRIFFITH: STUDENT’S DATA TO BE CITED IN UPCOMING PAPER
Data gathered by a Columbus State student might help the next generation of
American chestnut trees recover from a deadly blight.
Student Zachary Griffith’s data will be cited in an forthcoming scientific paper
on how chestnuts survive on former coal-mining land. Griffith, who is pursuing

American chestnuts were well-known in colonial America, but they’re nearly
extinct today. “I didn’t understand how fundamental the American chestnut was.
It was a huge market for the Appalachian region,” Griffith says. Read full story

SHANDON MITCHELL, BUSINESS AND IT
Discovering new opportunities with Columbus State’s Honors Program
Shandon Mitchell almost didn’t go to Columbus State. He started at a four-year
college in 2014, but had to leave after a problem with scholarships. Luckily, a
spot was still open in Columbus State’s Honors Program. "At first, it seemed
like the end of the world, but I'm glad I ended up at Columbus State," Mitchell
says. "The Honors Program has helped me in ways I couldn't have imagined."
That program also led to an internship at COSI, which led to a job as a research
assistant on a project to compare regional accents around Ohio. And if that
wasn’t enough, Mitchell helped his brother and some friends start an apparel
company while he was still a student as Columbus State. StarStrukt has a
thriving online trade and maintains a storefront in Reynoldsburg.
After earning his associate degree, Mitchell transferred to Ohio State’s Fisher
College of business, where he’s decided to focus on business and IT for his
bachelor’s degree. “I’m on track to graduate, on time, and with half the cost,”
Mitchell says, noting the value of Columbus State’s low tuition.

TRACY L. SMITH: TOP RANKED GRAD
If you see a first responder, chances are they're a Columbus State grad. And if
you're in the City of Columbus, that goes all the way to top.
Tracy L. Smith, who is both a graduate of and an adjunct professor in Columbus
State's Fire Science department, was recently named assistant chief for
emergency services at the Columbus Division of Fire. Smith oversees 1,300 public
safety employees, including all firefighters, EMS workers, the hazmat unit and
the bomb squad.
In her current role as assistant chief, Smith is the highest-ranking woman in
the history of the Columbus Division of Fire. She credits her position to her
hard work and guidance from great leaders in the division. During her 22-year
career, Smith has seen more women and minorities enter the profession, and as an
instructor at Columbus State she's in a position to inspire even more to rise
through the ranks.
“It’s not significant that it’s me. It’s significant that over the years, the
city has changed in the opportunities it gives all people to succeed,” Smith
said. “I hope this sends a message to young women everywhere that if they work
hard and stay focused, they can do anything.”

LAUREN DAVIS: BACK TO SCHOOL
Lauren Davis says she was “scared and hesitant” to apply at Columbus State. At
27 years old, she had been out of school for a decade. However, she says, “With
the support and encouragement of friends, I dove in.”
She started slow, taking only seven credit hours the first semester in 2018 as a
part-time student. Working full-time in sales made it difficult to take more
classes. But then Davis had an epiphany. “I realized the sales job was not my
end goal,” she says. “So I left a job I loved and took a part-time job which
allowed me to take hold of my education goals and be a full-time student.” Davis
graduated magna cum laude with an Associate of Arts degree and will transfer to
Ohio State-Newark to obtain her bachelor’s degree in Middle Childhood Education
followed by a master’s degree in Psychology.

EARLY CHILDHOOD AIDE CERTIFICATES
Program offers independence and a dream job
Two Licking County women are on the path to a rewarding career with Columbus
State’s Early Childhood Aide Certificate, a program to train students with
developmental disabilities to work with young children. Ellen Roudebush and
Jordyn Hubert are carpooling together as they complete the yearlong program.
Students spend some time in the classroom, but also get hands-on experience at
different childcare centers. The pair have learned to navigate college and use
the resources Columbus State offers, such as getting a quiet place to take
exams. “Working with children is my dream job,” Ellen said.

DAVID JANNING
David Janning is bringing the experience from two deployments fighting COVID-19
back to the classroom.
David Janning graduated Columbus State Community College with an associate
degree in Emergency Medical Services/Fire Science in 2011, and has taught in
that department for seven years. He's also currently a student in the RN Nursing
Associate Degree program.
So, when the pandemic started, Janning knew that he had skills that could be
useful. He reached out to a company recruiting for health care professionals to
work in COVID-19 hot spots. Janning took a brief sabbatical from his studies and
teaching and immediately went down South with 50 pounds of medical supplies for
his first deployment.
“When we can say, ‘Not only are we are teaching this, we are living it,’ it
makes teaching that much more effective,” Janning says.

AMBULANCE SIMULATORS
Thanks to grant funding, Columbus State’s Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
program has three new simulation rig ambulances. Known as “sim-rigs,” they are
replicas of the back of an actual ambulance. They were constructed in a lab
classroom where the EMS program is based.
Previously, students used what you might consider “make-believe” ambulance
setups. For example, they would place a stretcher in an area surrounded by
chairs to act as shelves for medical items that you would need in an ambulance.
Staring with this semester, students will have an actual replica of the back of
an ambulance.
State Rapid Grants provided nearly $28,000 for each of the three sim rigs.
Additional grant funding provided just over $14,000 for the three stretchers and
special equipment. They are used by students in the Emergency Medical Services
Technology associate degree program, the Paramedic certification program, and
the Emergency Medical Technician certification program.

YOUR PATH TO A DEBT-FREE DEGREE
Starting at Columbus State and transferring can help you save up to 60% on your
bachelor’s degree
Why pay more for the same degree? When you start at Columbus State, you can
transfer your associate degree to one of our many partner institutions and save
big. That way, you can graduate ready to tackle your future, rather than paying
off the past.
Health Sciences
VETERINARY TECHNOLOGY
Channel your compassion for pets and people.
“If you want to work in a vet’s office, you’re probably an animal person.
Columbus State’s Veterinary Technology program teaches you to care for pets and
interact with their owners, too. Courses range from veterinary anatomy to
business communication. Students get hands-on experience in our lab and through
clinical experience, and graduates are able to conduct physical examinations,
administer anesthesia, communicate with clients and keep records under the
supervision of a licensed veterinarian.”

HEALTHCARE JOBS ARE EXPECTED TO GROW FASTER THAN ANY OTHER SECTOR OF THE ECONOMY
Start your career in this high-demand industry with help from Columbus State
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the health care industry is
projected to add 2.3 million jobs between 2014 and 2024 — that’s more job
openings than any other occupation. Many careers in the health care field
require only an associate degree, and range from nursing to dental hygiene to
respiratory therapy. If you plan to earn a bachelor’s or master’s degree in the
medical field, starting at Columbus State and transferring can save you
thousands of dollars in student loans.

ABBY KIROV: DEGREE-SEEKING MOM
Abby Kirov is one of Columbus State’s many non-traditional students. As a
29-year-old working adult, she turned to the College to earn a degree many years
after high school. She graduated with an Associate of Science in nursing.
Before arriving at Columbus State six years ago, Kirov was already working in
the health care field as a medical assistant at OhioHealth Heart & Vascular.
“The program was challenging as a new mom and full-time medical assistant. I
shed a lot of tears, I missed important family moments, and worked harder than
ever.”

ALLYSON STOUGHT, RESPIRATORY CARE
To the heart of the pandemic
Allyson Stought went where she was most needed: To New York City, to the center
of a pandemic.
Stought, who graduated in 2018 with an associate degree in Respiratory Care,
went to New York City at the end of April to help operate ventilators for
patients suffering from COVID-19. She was deployed to NewYork-Presbyterian /
Weill Cornell Medical Center and hit the ground running.
"As respiratory therapists, we really are the front lines of this," Stought
says. "We have our hands in anything cardio-pulmonary related. They are really
relying on us to help treat this virus."

FROM EXERCISE SCIENCE TO HERBAL MEDICINE
Networking helped this Columbus State student engage in scientific research and
discover a new passion
A sports-lover all her life, Zea’annah Slack knew she wanted to major in
exercise science. Slack took some courses at Columbus State during her junior
year of high school, and she enjoyed the experience so much that she decided to
enroll here to earn her associate degree. That decision allowed her to forge
connections with advisors and teachers early on, and opened the door to new
opportunities. Slack’s advisor helped her land a research assistant position at
Ohio State University where she’s worked on a study looking at the effects of
nutrition and exercise for minority students in college.
“The thing I like the most about Columbus State is that you really get to know
you professors on a name-to-name basis,” Slack says. “It helped me stay focused
and get good grades because it was easy for me to get the help and tutoring I
needed.”
Slack plans to transfer to a four-year school to earn a physician’s assistant
degree with a minor in herbal science — a passion she’s developed during her
time at Columbus State. Slack aspires to own her own herbal remedy business one
day, so she can educate others about the benefits of herbal treatments and
create her own affordable yet effective remedies.

A STRONG FOUNDATION
Earning an Associate of Science degree set Emily Holbrook up for success
Initially, Emily Holbrook assumed she would attend Ohio State University her
freshman year of college. But when she discovered the resources available to her
at Columbus State — including tuition assistance, one-on-one counseling, and an
active STEM Club — it was an easy decision to start here before transferring to
Ohio State to study medical dietetics.

PREPARING AUTOMOTIVE TECHS FOR TOMORROW’S TECHNOLOGY
Alternative Energy Automotive Technician Certificate
In the last decade, the number of alternative-fueled vehicles on the roads has
risen dramatically and continues to increase. From individuals to corporate and
government fleets, more and more Americans are choosing these energy-efficient
modes of transportation. That creates a high demand for automotive technicians
with the technical skills to maintain and repair vehicles powered by
electricity, alternative fuels, or a hybrid of conventional fuels and new
technology.
Funded in part by a grant from the National Science Foundation, the new
Alternative Energy Automotive Technician Certificate prepares automotive
students and professionals to step into this up-and-coming specialty.

Columbus State is committed to working with employers to bridge the gap between
what students learn and the skills companies look for in a candidate. Honda’s
work-study program gives Columbus State students real-world experience in the
field before they even leave school, setting them up for success after
graduation.

ERICA MILLER, MODERN MANUFACTURING
Columbus State’s Modern Manufacturing Work-Study program helped Miller learn on
the job
Erica Miller’s first foray into engineering and robotics was in middle school,
when she participated in the First Lego League. “As a kid I was always
fascinated with figuring out how things worked. I really liked thinking through
problems and evaluating solutions,” she says. Today, she’s channeling that
passion for problem-solving into her job as a technician with Stanley Electric
US, Inc.
Miller gained the knowledge and skills she needed through Columbus State’s
Modern Manufacturing Work-Study program, which gives students an opportunity to
work with a local company while they’re still in school. For Miller, that meant
servicing and maintaining robots and equipment at Honda. “It’s great how what
you learn at school and what you learn on the job build on each other,” she
says. “They ask me to do things at work for the first time and I’m like ‘Hey, I
know how to do this!’ The classes and lab work really teach you the basics so
you can jump in when you get a job.”

SHANE BENDELE, ENGINEERING
Preparing students for the workforce and beyond
For professor Shane Bendele, there’s nothing more satisfying than know he’s
prepared his students well. “Probably my favorite thing that I hear over and
over again is somebody who’s been working in the field for maybe six months,
they come back and they tell me ‘I use everything you taught me,’” he says.

NADINE REECE, AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY
Nadine Reece loves figuring things out — and Columbus State's Automotive
Technology department is a piece of that puzzle.
Reece became interested in cars through a high school internship with
Alternative Auto Care for a semester. "I love the puzzle aspect of the work, and
figuring out the exact root cause of an issue is very satisfying," she said.
Columbus State's program gives students a solid understanding of how every part
of the car works, Reece said. And although she was one of the few women in the
program, she always felt respected and included. "The camaraderie we had as
classmates was one of my favorite parts of the program. Even on long and hot
days, it was a delight to be there with friends."
