Judd Rogers
A.A.S. Geographic Information Science, 2017
As a multigenerational Wyoming native, 贾德·罗杰斯(Judd Rogers)选择参加CWC攻读地理信息科学(GIS)学位，这使他能够将他对积极生活方式和探索荒野的热情与他对制图和户外教育的兴趣结合起来. He graduated from CWC in 2017.
At the age of 18, Judd embarked on his career with the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS). His career with NOLS led him to work in Chile at NOLS Patagonia, where fate led him to meet his beloved wife of 26 years. The couple had two children together. In 2010, Judd and his family returned to their current home in Lander, WY. “My heart belongs to the wilderness and I find solace in backpacking, mountain biking, and embarking on explorations of our beautiful planet,” he said. Judd later brought his family back to Lander, WY and worked as the Director of Alumni and Development at NOLS World Headquarters.
After working for NOLS for 33 years, Judd retired from the organization in 2024. He is now serving as the Executive Director of the Wyoming PBS Foundation. “我现在有幸领导在全球平台上捕捉和分享怀俄明州多元文化遗产和故事的倡议. 从一开始担任登山教练到担任NOLS巴塔哥尼亚和NOLS西南的主任, my experiences shaped my leadership skills and passion for outdoor education. Embracing this new chapter, 我致力于利用我的专业知识来支持怀俄明州公共广播公司的使命，向全州观众展示怀俄明州的精髓,” he stated.
CWC’s program in GIS has played an impactful role in Judd’s career. During his time at CWC, he was able to do coursework in the Wind River Mountains of Wyoming and the Patagonian Andes. He chose CWC because it offered an accessible education, tailored support, and created connections that played a significant role in his career trajectory. “CWC is not just a college; it’s a game-changer for Central Wyoming. As a proud alum, I can attest to the significant impact it has had on my life and career. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to make the most of their education. In my humble opinion, the value you get for your investment in CWC is unbeatable.”

Alum Brandi Petersen chose to attend CWC due to its affordability, friendly atmosphere, and for its leading reputation in healthcare professions. Originally from Riverton, WY, 布兰迪从小就知道，CWC将是她开始成为一名牙科保健师梦想的完美选择. “The classes were small and I was able to get one-on-one help from my professors. I loved my time at CWC,” she said.
Brandi graduated from CWC in 2017 with her Associate of Science in Health Science. She then transferred to Sheridan College to earn her Associate of Science in Dental Hygiene. In 2022, Brandi earned her Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene from the University of Wyoming. 她认为CWC帮助她为后来在教育事业中面临的具有挑战性的高年级课程做好了准备. Brandi is a big advocate for community college. She believes that students who attend community college, especially CWC students, 当他们进入四年制大学或其他项目时，他们是否学会了为自己辩护所需的社交技巧. “CWC taught me that it was OK to ask for help. I had the confidence to carry on conversations with my professors in order to succeed.” She additionally emphasized that CWC was instrumental in helping her stay debt-free. “I didn’t have to take out loans, which was a huge help when I transferred to my other programs.”
Brandi has been a Registered Dental Hygienist since 2019. She is currently working in Casper, WY at Hilltop Dental and at T. Shaun Sutherland DDS & Ruma Novotny DDS. 作为一名牙科保健师，布兰迪最喜欢的部分是帮助人们保持口腔健康. She also loves her patients and enjoys meeting new patients every day. Brandi has a true passion for helping others.
In her free time, Brandi loves spending time with her fiancé and her family. She enjoys working out to maintain a healthy lifestyle. 布兰迪也对旅行充满热情，她总是期待着下一次的海滩度假，在那里她可以放松和享受生活.
