  5. Fl non-LPN Excelsior students

    Wow, I would think you guys should be grandfathered in. I would talk with an attorney and ask if they can help. It may cost a few dollars in legal fees, but may save you a lot of money. Attorneys have a way of wording things that can be in your favor...

    Hey Matt I like that reply. I have been told by a husband and wife in our program (Both RN students) that our DON does not like men in nursing. They state she said it. I have never had a problem with her. Some others have told me the same. She smiles...
