   mommywithplenty replied to ioiiipop01's topic in General Students

   Apparently your school wanted people to sit in the same seats, this could be so the teachers recognize you if your class is big. Someone needs to get kicked out period. THere is no room at all in the nursing practice to do such immature stunts. Do we...
