2020 Nursing Education
Grant: $4,000,000
Originally from Huntington, WV, Robert “Bobby” Midkiff was a “non-traditional” student. Prior to attending nursing school, Bobby was a guitar player for the band “Holden Caulfield” who was signed to a record label in Cleveland, OH and toured the US. Bobby’s music career was put on hold when his father became ill and ended up in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for three months. This is where Bobby was introduced to nursing. Moved by the compassionate nurses who explained everything about his father’s care to him and his mother, this led to his decision to apply to nursing school. Bobby entered his senior year and realized that he was going to need financial aid. He said he started “freaking out”, but when referred to the CAMC Foundation, Bobby received an educational assistance grant and graduated on time from Marshall University with his BSN.
