California should simply accept the fact that excelsior isn't going away. I'm sure the law suits are not over. The fact remains that there are THOUSANDS of RN's in California that are Excelsior grads. To proclaim that they are dangerous or inadequately educated is simple ignorance. If they truely believe this they should suspend all of those people already licensed. Then the law suits will certainly start. I will be licensed in California and I never plan to work there. My only mission will be to write them a letter a month asking them to tell me why my fellow grads can't get licensed. If all of the excelsior grads in California did similar things and defend the education the NLN says is exceptional, California would have to change their mind.
