Durham Tech graduates on the frontlines in fight against COVID-19, ‘toughest weeks of my life’
In hospitals and medical facilities across the Triangle, Durham Tech graduates are among the frontline healthcare workers fighting against COVID-19. As the community college of the City of Medicine, Durham Tech has more than a dozen health technologies programs, providing the next generation of healthcare workers for hundreds of jobs each year.
Behind every great community college is a foundation on a mission – to provide students with the financial means to pursue their dreams, to upgrade classrooms with state-of-the-art technology and equipment, to improve campus infrastructure, and to fund initiatives that support tomorrow’s workforce.
For Durham Tech, that mission began in 1982.
In November of that year, Durham Tech President Dr. Phail Wynn, Jr., L.A. Veasey, Dr. Susan Payne, and George Newton saw the need for donations and established the Durham Technical Institute Foundation as the fundraising arm of the College.

“I want to have the impact of a connector of students to employers. That connection can change the trajectory of their whole lives. It can change their legacy,” she said. “I always tell students, ‘you’re about to embark on a 160-hour interview.’”
