Ebony Hines
Human Services
Ebony Hines came to Delaware Tech for its small class sizes and low tuition cost, but stayed for the desire to create a better life for her daughter.
Hines came to the College to grow into a career that she loves. She started as a nursing major, but after complications brought on by the pandemic and the transition to online courses, she ran into some obstacles.
“I assumed I would be fine learning in any setting. I did my absolute best and retook the math and anatomy and physiology courses that were still being offered online, but I knew this was material that I needed to learn in a classroom environment,” she said. “I knew I had to make a big decision.”
She decided to make the switch to the human services program with the help of Instructor Silja Walter and Department Chair Kimberly Gibbs.
“Mrs. Walter and Mrs. Gibbs truly made this such a smooth transition. Once I began my internships, I knew that this was what I was destined to do.”
During her time as a student, Hines’ favorite memories were made in her Interviewing/Counseling Skills course. She also enjoyed meeting new people with likeminded interests on campus.
Hines has encouraging words for other students who may be encountering road blocks in the pursuit of their degree. “It’s okay to make mistakes. Just try to do better than you did the day before and focus on your goals.”
After graduating from Delaware Tech, Hines plans to transfer to Wilmington University for a connected degree in behavioral science before beginning her new career and making her dream a reality.
“My dream career is one where I advocate for others and give back the voices of those that were once silenced.”
