Keneisha Hylton had to stop herself from crying as she thought about everything she’s accomplishing this week.
Hylton, 37, will graduate on Friday from UNC Greensboro with her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN). She’ll earn her degree despite being told over the years that, as a single mother of two serving in the U.S. Army, she was too old to become a nurse.
After graduation, Hylton will head to San Antonio, Texas, to start training to become an Army officer. She’ll get promoted from sergeant to second lieutenant.
