  2. ADN or BSN: What's the Big Deal?

    Always a horse race, ADN v BSN... I have a very impressive academic pedigree; however, I was called to care sometime after earning my BS and MS in the 'hard sciences'. Certainly the hierarchy in nursing positions and salaries follow higher academic...
  3. Thinking about leaving nursing school

    Nursing school can at times be amazingly difficult and will take the wind out of your (nursing) sail. Regardless of your motivations I'm not putting forth an effort to encourage you to remain in nursing. If its for the money, the money is nice, but...
  4. Age and nursing school

    Apparently one of us doesn't understand how the world works. It might be me, or it could be you. You will be 22? when you finish/get into the nursing program. I, to you, am ancient. I earned a degree in the hard sciences, worked in a career positio...

  9. It's About Time

    Greetings: I need your help. Looking for timepieces- particularly wristwatches and would value your opinion. I like you have on often needed to note the time. There are a myriad of reasons for this and an equally large number of ways to meet the need...

    I am nearing a place in life where I will transition to become a registered nurse. My academic background, and (nearly completed) career is in the earth sciences, specifically hydrology. Its been fascinating and technical but is entirely lacking fo...
  14. Professional (Gender) Collaboration

    I've heard different opinions on the ability of some RN's to get along with other nursing professionals. Stress is a part of everyday life, no doubt there's plenty in medicine. Every one of us has a preference (or bias) about who we would prefer to ...
  15. UTHSCSA - Accelerated Nursing Program 2014
