Student Spotlight
Brittny Asper, out of her shell

Brittny Asper has learned about more than just academics at 91制片厂. She鈥檚 also gained self-confidence. After Brittny graduated from Brunswick High School, she planned to go to a private, out-of-state college.

But the cost was daunting, so she ended up staying close to home and coming to 91制片厂鈥檚 Midcoast Campus.

She鈥檒l graduate May 22 with two degrees, in Business and Liberal Studies. After graduation, she plans to move to Vermont with her boyfriend and go after a bachelor鈥檚 degree online.

Her long-term goal is to open her own small business, perhaps a bakery and caf茅. She credits 91制片厂 with giving her the know-how and the confidence she needs to succeed.

鈥91制片厂 helped me break out of my shell. It really helped me blossom.鈥

Eric Wellman has lots of contacts in the emergency rescue field. After all, he鈥檚 worked as a paramedic and firefighter in four Maine communities and is deputy chief and EMS coordinator for the Cape Elizabeth Fire-Rescue Department.

Eric began teaching at 91制片厂 in 2004 and is now chairman of the EMS/Paramedicine program, preparing students for careers as emergency medical technicians and paramedics.
