Introductions:"New" and "Old" Students.

Nursing Students General Students

Published

How about a thread that will allow us to introduce ourselves to those who are new and the new students can do the same.

I am Stephany, 42, mother of 3 children, a son 22, a daughter 15, and a son 13. I am an LPN of nearly 11 years, and I am in my first semester of a five-semester rn program.

Care to share?

Hello to all.......

My name is Arthur, I am a 38 years old student, preparing to retire from active military service (21 years) with the USAF. I am a Computer Science BS degree holder married to a BSN RN TNS CCM, who has shown me that nursing has always been in my blood. We have three children (21 - Son, 20 - Daughter, and 16- Daughter). I am currently taking my prerequisites for an Accelerated BSN program at St Louis University. Nursing is the only other profession besides law enforcement, and firemen who earn the same respect as members of the armed forces. I served my country for decades, and by becoming a nurse, I will be able to continue to protect and assist the citizens of the greatest Nation in the world.

Hello everyone... My name is Lynda, I am 33, happily married with three wonderful children. I have been a stay-at-home mom for the past 5 years and ready to make a change. After some time soul searching, I picked nursing as new found path. I begin classes in January with Chemistry (I never took in HS) and Sociology.. I will enter the actual nursing program next Fall and work on my ADN. I look forward to getting to know each of you..
