Introductions

Hi, another friend from Alaska! I am currently enrolled at the University of Alaska Anchorage, hope to be accepted to the program that starts in the fall. I was in a nursing program before in Oregon but had to pull out, my husband is in the army and we moved, then had a baby, then teenagers....anyhoo...I am finishing this time not matter what! I have 5 kids ages 3-18, busy with church responsibilites, family and school. I love to fish, camp, backpack, sew, read (for fun....how long has that been?) and spend time with the kids. I love Alaska but don't know if I will stay here after I am done with school...anyone else out there from Alaska?

Hello Michelle, I'm an AF RN, who will be moving to Alaska with my husband who is also active duty. I read your message about going to University of Alaska to become a nurse. I am intersted in doing my masters, possibly FNP during our 3-4 year tour down there. Is the Univ. Alaska the only University nearby Elmendorf/Anchorage area that offer graduate degrees for nurses? Would you happen to know when the new schedule for spring 2004 might be posted? How is it living in Alaska?

Hope to hear from you soon!,

I live in the Great Southeast, moved here 13 years ago and don't plan on moving!!
