Stella Ogari's journey has taken her from East Africa to Northeast Ohio and now culminates with her earning her associate degree in nursing from Kent State University at Ashtabula.

Ogari, a licensed practical nurse (LPN), chose the Ashtabula Campus for its acclaimed nursing program to advance her career. Following graduation the recent Alpha Delta Nu honor society inductee plans to work in the cardiovascular intensive care unit and be what she calls a "beacon of hope" for patients.

Her story was recently profiled during the National Nurses Week in the Star Beacon.

Like most 17-year-olds, Selinda Floss is preparing for her upcoming graduation. But unlike most students her age, her graduation includes a bachelor's degree in criminology and justice studies from Kent State University at Ashtabula.

Floss, who participated in the College Credit Plus program and has previously earned an associate degree and plans to attend law school in the near future, was recently featured in The Star Beacon about her upcoming graduation.  

Kent State Ashtabula's 78th commencement ceremony will be held Thursday, May 9, 2024 in Susan J. Stocker Hall.
