Oakton Nursing Student Graduates with 4.0 GPA
Diane Williams of Park Ridge is the inaugural recipient of Oakton Community College's Keeper of the Light Award.
The Keeper of the Light Award was established in recognition of the founder of nursing, Florence Nightingale. Often referred to as "the lady with the lamp," Nightingale called on her patients throughout the night hours carrying an oil lamp to light her way.
Presented at Oakton's 20th Anniversary Pinning Ceremony, the Keeper of the Light Award was awarded to the graduating nursing student with the highest overall GPA. Williams has maintained and will graduate with a 4.00 GPA.
"Diane exemplifies what we look for in our future nurses. Her dedication and professionalism has been an inspiration to her fellow students. The faculty has great expectations for her future in the nursing world," said Sandy Kubala, assistant professor of nursing.
