Nancy's'  Story
by Martha Macdonald

 “I’ve lived on Highway 274 all my life, and I worked at the Bowling  Green Spinning Company for 28 years and one week,” Nancy Morrison explains.  When the company closed, Morrison decided to do something different.  She came to York Tech and majored in Medical Laboratory Technology.

“It’s been an absolutely wonderful experience.  I have made so many friends.  In fact, any differences in agewent away after we got to know each other.  We often go to lunch together and study together.”

At Tech, she has maintained a 4.O average.  She takes the registry exam on May the eighth, and she already has a job at Gaston Memorial Hospital. 

“Going from being in charge of payroll to testing blood is a 180-degree turn around,” she smiles.

 Family members have been very supportive, and Morrison is looking forward to a vacation at the Outer Banks after graduation.  “Oh, I love all the lighthouses up there, and I will probably read, relax, and do a few crafts.”  She paints lighthouses.
