Hocking College second-year Registered Nursing (RN) student Janie Cancila is the recipient of this year's Forty and Eight Scholarship.
Cancila completed the Practical Nursing (LPN) program at Hocking before immediately moving into the RN program. Upon her graduation, Cancila hopes to work at the VA hospital in Chillicothe while continuing her education.
La Societe des 40 Hommes et 8 Chevaux (Forty and Eight) Scholarship provides full tuition to a full-time nursing student at Hocking College. The scholarship fund was initially created in 1955 to address a shortage of nurses and continues to financially assist nursing students.
"It's challenging to juggle classes, study time, family, and driving back and forth from Columbus," Cancila says. The Forty and Eight Scholarship will help Cancila reduce her student loans and relieve some financial worries.
Cancila graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Anthropology before working in the service industry for twelve years. She enrolled at Hocking College to expand her career opportunities.
