Lions Voices: Violet Blurton
Written By: Jacob Howell
Happy Friday Lions! Today’s #LionVoices feature is junior Nursing major, Violet Blurton. Violet is from Bullhead, Arizona and currently serves as the Panhellenic VP of Recruitment and the Director of Socials & Formals for the Delta Gamma sorority.
Violet’s decision to attend ϲ was influenced by the campus’ proximity to her family and that the “nursing program is one of the top notch in the state and creates a challenge.” She also went on to say “I’m a first generation and I wanted to make a difference within my family. I didn’t want to just work a retail job.”
Violet said what changed her the most in her college years was “is the community that ϲ has. It has brought me out of my shell and not be so shy and timid and being afraid of who I am.” She said that she is most proud of the way she can make an impact in other’s lives by being a ϲ student. “Being a Cub Camp counselor, seeing the first day to the last day transformation of freshmen being able to be and express their true selves.”
