Chapel Hill News, May 4, 2010 –

Amy Davenport was awarded The Carolina Experience Enrichment Scholarship (CEES) for their summer enrichment opportunities. Davenport and Littauer each were given $1,500; Neal was given $500.

Davenport, a senior nursing major is a transfer, non-traditional student who has already completed the Master of Public Health degree at UNC Chapel Hill.   She chose to enroll in the traditional 24-month nursing school option so she could participate in the summer externship program.

During the summer, Davenport will be volunteering in Teotitlan del Valle, Mexico, to work with the nurses at the Centro de Salud. There, Davenport will promote the health and well-being of the people served by the clinic, help nurses in providing care at the health clinics and assessing the need and desire to establish a more intensive UNC volunteer presence in the community.
