Samantha Rotar

Hi, my name is Samantha Rotar, but please call me Sammie. I was born and raised here in Marshfield, where I graduated in 2007. I am now on my second year at UW Marshfield/Wood County, majoring in Elementary Education, and planning on transferring to UW Steven's Point next fall. By taking advantage of all the opportunities here, I am an active member of Student Wisconsin Education Association (SWEA) and your current Student Ambassador. I encourage all students to join a club, sports team, or organization. Please feel free to say hi whenever you see me, I love to chat!

I came to attend UW-Marshfield/Wood County as a transfer student after a year-long stint living and going to school in Chicago. It’s a rather complicated tale that I won’t bore you with here; let’s just say it was a sort of happy accident. I currently live in Wisconsin Rapids and am majoring in Nursing with plans to transfer to UW-Madison. Although UW-Marshfield wasn’t my first choice for college, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the level of quality and commitment in the faculty and staff. I’ve also made some wonderful relationships along the way. I’m a very open and friendly type of person, so if you need any help whatsoever feel free to ask!

I am currently a sophomore at UW-Marshfield/Wood County.  I am majoring in nursing and planning on transferring to UW-Eau Claire at the end of the 2008-2009 academic year.  At UW-M/WC, I am involved in the honor society Phi Theta Kappa, Student Senate Treasurer, President of the Future Health Care Organization, peer tutor at the Learning Center, and a student ambassador.  I encourage you to take advantage of the various opportunities available at UW-M/WC and would be happy to help in any way I can! 

Jamie Hendrickson

I am currently in my second year at UW-Marshfield/Wood County.  As a non-traditional student from Minnesota majoring in nursing, I plan to finish with my B.S.N. from UW-Eau Claire.  I am a member of the Student Nursing Association, and currently work as a CAN in the surgical Intensive Care Unit at St. Josephs Hospital.  I enjoy spending time with my wife, Andrea and my twin daughters Noelani and Alexis, and helping them grow.  I hope to finish with my Masters Degree in Anesthesia and will continue to provide excellent health care for many years to come.  I encourage all new students to be very active in campus activities and always remember that I am always available to lend a helping hand and assist you in any way possible.  Have a wonderful year and never let go or your dreams!
