Nolan is also involved in many
activities around campus in­
cluding the Student Success
Makers and the Focus on Women
program. At one time, Nolan was
coordinator of the Women’s Pro­
gram; and now is on the steering
committee helping Donna Ford.
She explained working on this
program is “truly a deep kind of
commitment that I make.
“I was a returning woman who
had been out of school for 16
years when I came back as a
freshman,” Nolan said. “CCC
really changed my life. It was a
second chance, a new opportuni­
ty.”
The American College Testing
program is another organization
Nolan is involved in. She has
been the ACT secretary for two
years. When asked how she got
the job, Nolan replied with a
smile, “I happened to walk by.”
According to her recommenda­
tion forms for the Success Maker
Award, Bernie Nolan has been
noted for being “an excellent role
model for returning women
students...her efforts embody the
word ‘responsive.’”
