CSN RN Spring 2013

There's a workbook for the Toolbox you can only buy from the bookstore, it's around $3 or 5.

Just to give you an idea on cost of books, the 1st sem books are bundled around $600-800 thru the bookstore. Of course you can source online thru amazon, barnes, etc.., rent or get the e-books set.

It lists no books for the tool box course on MyCsn and the CSN bookstore website. I check in person next week though. Thanks!

I am sure they will let us know more about the classes and the signing up process at the mandatory orientation. I just signed up for the tool box class. No books for this one, but I am sure things are going to get pricey real soon! I also have to start looking at my vaccinations... I am going to have to have the chicken pox vaccination.

Which toolbox class are you in?

I had to get the 12:00-2:40 one. I would have taken the later one, but I have class Tuesday and Thursday nights at 6:00 on the Cheyenne Campus until 12/17.

Is anyone planning in being at school right at 12:30 on Wednesday to pick up the packet? I have to go to first thing because I work right after. I wouldn't mind meeting some of you there!

Ok i guess i missed it...what exactly is the Nurs 285 class...the description in my csn isnt very in depth...i actually need to find some other classes because i need to have 12 units so i can be considered full tome so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I have to volunteer at the elementary school for their Halloween party...i already had obligated myself before i found out about needing to get my packet...so i am going to have to wait til after i have been an appropriate chaperon for a bunch of hyped up 5th graders to head over to the campus to get my packet

From what I have heard it is an optional class that will help you with dosage calculations and care plans. It is only 1 credit so I don't know how much it will help you with your credits. And since it's split between Dec & Jan I don't know if the credit will count for Fall or Spring. Now I'm wondering (since MyCSN sent me threatening emails that I had to pay yesterday otherwise I would be dropped) if we have to pay again for the 2nd week....Hmmmmm

If I were you I would take a fun class! I have always wanted to take something like astronomy or climatology just for fun but since I pay may own tuition the fun classes aren't really an option :/

Sounds fun...j/k

Well hopefully we might end up in one of our regular classes together :)

The nursing program is considered FT. What do you need it for? You can get a letter from registration, I believe, that states it is considered FT. the class load is so intense that I wouldn't suggest other classes.

And the toolbox class teaches you the math we use and how to write care plans. very helpful, IMO!
