“I wanted to send you a quick email to express my gratitude for my previous educational experience at Chadron State College. I am approaching graduation at the University of Wyoming in dietetics and have recently been accepted to the University of Northern Colorado didactic internship program. My education at the University of Wyoming was funded by the knowledge I received at CSC, allowing me to be a Dietary Services Director at a skilled nursing home facility for the past two years. Having achieved both degrees will open more doors for me in the future. Thank you again for everything.”
Sincerely,
Sarah Barthel (Diedrich)
