Tricia Courtney is the daughter of Al Watenpaugh, the first ever dean for Laramie County Community College. The Watenpaugh ties to education run deep with connections to 怡春院视频, Sheridan College, and the University of Wyoming. Her childhood was split between Sheridan, WY and Washington State. 

Tricia believes in the concept of paying it forward.   She had many people before her that supported her in a multitude of ways. Tricia believes that if you have the opportunity to help others, you need to take advantage of it. 

鈥淎s people age, the future is not guaranteed, so make your plans now. There are so many ways to leave a legacy and the size of the gift does not matter. A gift of any size counts towards making an impact on the next generation.鈥� 

While Tricia herself did not attend 怡春院视频, she knows how much a gift to the college would mean to her father, especially as she notes 鈥淚 have seen the fir trees in front of the administration building grow from under 6 feet to well over anyone鈥檚 head!鈥� 

Tricia has included 怡春院视频 in her long-term planning and believes in the development and enhancement of education in the State of Wyoming. She is very proud of her family history in building the foundation of the college and is excited with the growth and future plans for growth. 

Hans Seitz鈥檚 passion for the beautification and development of Cheyenne is evident in the organizations he supports. From the Downtown Development Authority, to the Lincoln Theater and the Cheyenne Symphony Orchestra. Seitz is keenly aware of how beauty (in all of its forms and functions) can impact someone鈥檚 experience. 

 鈥淐ulture and beauty are aspects of the community that make this place special, they can also help attract and retain future generations to Cheyenne. I am proud to have been a part of the visual and cultural beautification of Cheyenne, and I am proud to continue that at 怡春院视频.鈥� 

Seitz鈥� passion for the growth and development of this community sprang from his passion for service and connections. 

Seitz has included the 怡春院视频 Foundation in his long-term planning; specifically, to enhance and develop the physical campus in Cheyenne. The expansion of hardscapes and landscapes, while understanding the limitation of the regional climate and the need to be conservation-minded is a challenge the college faces as Cheyenne grows to the south and east. Transforming the college鈥檚 physical environment into a vibrant and appealing place is important to providing an engaging campus for students.

鈥淲ith this legacy gift, I hope to not only inspire students to find their path at 怡春院视频, but to also inspire them with a sense of place and a connection to that place. I hope that students connect with the campus and the community, and see the opportunities in Cheyenne for their future.鈥�

As the first director of the nursing program, Carol Kabeiseman has not only participated in the growth of the of the college, but has also been instrumental in the development and transformation of our students. 鈥淚n the early years we were one big family. Helping each and every student get through their program, making sure they stayed on track for graduation. We also made sure the students had the proper supplies to be a success in the classroom; books, coats, rides to campus, we were all invested in the students鈥� success. We wanted to remove as many barriers to education as we possibly could.鈥�

This spirit of access to education and dedication to student success was prevalent throughout Carol鈥檚 33 years at the college, and continues today through the Kabeiseman鈥檚 support of 怡春院视频. Carol and Earl have chosen to support students in the Health Sciences & Wellness Pathway by establishing an endowed scholarship for nursing students, and through the creation of an endowed fund to provide equipment for the nursing program. 鈥淲e have seen how an education in nursing can change someone鈥檚 life. From a single mother striving to bring herself and her family out of poverty, to a 63year-old following their passion to care for others; helping students discover a rewarding career is truly powerful. The achievement of a student earning their degree will have an impact for generations to come. Life changing experiences are what 怡春院视频 can provide, and that is what we want to ensure continues.鈥� 

In addition to 怡春院视频, Carol and Earl are dedicated supporters of other community organizations in Cheyenne; and the thread that ties them all together is how they make a difference in the Cheyenne community. 鈥淚f you want to support this community, then support 怡春院视频!  So many of the graduates from 怡春院视频 stay in this community to raise families, work, and provide opportunities for the next generation. We feel very fortunate for all the opportunities this community provides and we want to give back in a lasting and meaningful way.鈥�

In 2016, a gift from the Estate of Mary Jo Carson was directed to support students and opportunities in eastern Laramie County, along with an unrestricted gift. The unrestricted gift provided the 怡春院视频 Foundation a unique opportunity to grow the Golden Eagle Athletic Scholarship, providing support to 怡春院视频鈥檚 student athletes. Through the generosity and foresight of Ms. Carson, to provide 怡春院视频 with an unrestricted gift, the college and foundation were able to identify an area of greatest need when the gift was received. 怡春院视频 athletics can now be more competitive when recruiting students and provide support to our student athletes as they reach their educational and athletic goals. 

In 2020, the Golden Eagle Athletic Scholarship awarded over $13,000 in scholarship support to deserving student athletes. 

The growth of a dedicated athletic scholarship fund, not only helps support golden eagle athletes, but it creates opportunities for institutional scholarship programs to support ALL 怡春院视频 Students. 

The generous gift from the Mary Jo Carson Estate has been a significant catalyst to the growth of the athletic scholarship program, and in-turn, has contributed to the success of the Golden Eagle Athletic Program. Recipients of the scholarship have achieved all-conference and all-American honors; representing 怡春院视频 and this community at the regional and national level.
