A North Carolina man is celebrating after beating drug addiction and homelessness to earn three college degrees.
RALEIGH, N.C. – He has been accepted into a doctoral degree program, where he is studying healthcare administration.“I had a 15 year crack habit,” he said. “I got clean and, once I started that, it was full steam ahead.
”Since then, he has earned his associate, bachelor’s and master’s degrees.“No one wants to forgive me for the criminal acts I committed 34 years ago,” Watkins said. “That was 34 years ago. Can’t we move on beyond that. Why must I still be punished for the rest of my life?”
