And prospective students, too:) . We are facing a crisis with a critical shortage of nursing faculty in the community colleges across the state. Prospective students are waiting years to get into our nursing programs and it is just going to get worse unless the NC General Assembly acts NOW!!! Please take a few minutes out of your busy schedule to sign the following petition:

Also, write or email Governor Easley and our state legislators:

TOGETHER, we can make a difference!!!!

I signed the petition... I can't believe I actually saw names I recognize on the supporter list! Nursing faculty in NC and across the country definitely need higher salaries. There are so many qualified people who want to become nurses but are turned away because schools don't have enough instructors willing to work for the peanuts thrown their way.
Thanks, Camkib!!! :kiss
