This is Kristina's story... “I am the epitome of a non-traditional learner. I had already done the college route once & wasn't sure I had it in me to do it again. The more I looked into options for my future, the more the nursing program stood out. I am a mother. My first son was born with congenital skin disorder that left us going through multiple surgeries from the time he was 9 months old until he was 5 years old. Each procedure meant spending at least three days in a hospital on a pediatric floor. Now that he is 11, he vaguely recalls the details of so much time spent in hospitals, but I remember the experiences. Most keenly, I remember the amazing medical staff we interacted with along the way & how their presence & attitude really dictated how each day went.

After taking the TEAS & realizing I could make going back to school work, I got to it! I began taking every class I could while waiting to get into the program, & even with many obstacles along the way, with the support of my family, & as many scholarships as I could win, I was able to graduate the program in May 2020.

I finished my degree in May 2020- the peak of the pandemic. Although it was a challenge, I was still able to not only graduate but sat for the state exam (NCLEX) & passed on the first attempt. I am now just a few weeks shy of graduating from the Nurse Residency Program at Community Medical Center & have been given the opportunity to further my education with hands-on skills training & support while further developing my nursing judgement & time management skills. I am one semester away from completing my bachelor’s in nursing at New Jersey City University & have been able to complete course work quickly thanks to Brookdale's university partnership & having my credits transfer over so easily.

Since April 2021, I have been in the Emergency Department & continue to learn new things daily. I absolutely love what I do and where I work & could not have made it to where I am without the amazing education I received at Brookdale Community College.” #SoulsOfBrookdale

We are so happy to be able to offer this program and welcome @shorehousenj as part of the @brookdalecc family! #Repost @shorehousenj

The enthusiasm we have for our members going back to school as part of the college certificate program made possible by a grant from the @kesslerfdn is contagious.

Brookdale’s Dean of Continuing & Professional Studies Joan Socco recently made their feelings plain “We are so looking forward to this program, that will help you get a job, start your own business and enrich your lives,” she said. “You are now officially Brookdalians, a part of the Brookdale family!”

Shore house member and new student Taylor had this to add “This is something I’ve wanted to do forever but never had the resources to help me go back to school.”

What’s Happening on the Jersey Shore? Booming and Busting in our own Backyards - Asbury Park, like Red Bank and Long Branch, has enjoyed days of plenty and days of want. Gentrification, the influx of affluent residents and businesses, affects many communities today.

Professors Molly Vollman Makris and Mary Gatta, authors of Gentrification at the Shore, shared what they learned about this evolving redevelopment and what it means to long time Asbury residents – and to all of us.

This breakfast and presentation were proudly sponsored by the Friends of Lifelong Learning

Congrats to our Men's Soccer Team! Go Blues! ⚽💙

Repost @bccathletics:

The Jersey Blues took their first win on the road against the Prince George's Community College Owls under new head coach, Brad Fraley.

Brookdale was fired up and plowed in their first goal of the season under the five minute mark from freshman forward, Ryan Gannon. Gannon received the ball, beat two defenders, and placed a rocket to the upper 90 past the keeper. A few minutes later, freshman defender, Ryan Garibay, got his first of two goals off of a rebounded shot from freshman midfielder, Louis Cajas.

Late in the first half, the Blues earned a crucial goal from freshman forward, Liam Stewart. Stewart was put in on a breakaway ball from sophomore forward, Dane Calhoun, to take a 3-2 lead going into half. In the 2nd half, freshman forward, Mubashshir Atcha, came off the bench to score immediately, making a big impact on the Blues. Atcha then added a 2nd late goal with a whipped ball from Ryan Garibay. The ball was put in the back of the net with a thunderous header to give the Blues their first win, 6-3.
