詹娜英镑, a 生物学 major on a pre-dental track, took knowledge she learned from a rural health disparities class at Hastings College to create Dental Day, a day to help individuals in the community with dental care needs that weren’t being met.
她带着这个想法去找了当地的一位牙医,结果黑斯廷斯的一群牙医聚在一起,为社区里的人提供免费的牙科护理。
“Reaching out to people and saying I’m from Hastings College, and getting positive feedback and being willing to participate right away just because of the positive connotation of the college is something special,” said Sterling, who is from Scottsbluff, Nebraska.
