Ep.7 – Tackling the 7 Summits & Taking your Professors Out to Lunch

  • Summary

  • Ep: 7

    Though he’s retired now, Dr. Patrick Hickey worked with the University of South Carolina for 15 year. He served as the principal of the Capstone Scholars program, where he developed the “personal challenge” program to encourage students to get out of their comfort zones and expand their minds. He’s also recognized as a Distinguished Clinical Professor Emeritus for his work within the nursing school. Outside of the classroom, Dr. Hickey is a world traveler, having been to 88 countries and all seven continents. Along the way, he became the first nurse to ever climb the 7 Summits, the seven highest mountains in the world, on his first attempt each time. Yes, this includes Mt. Everest.
