I just got the cap and gown email from the book store!!

I still have 190 days, but our school has done away with pinning, even with strong protests from all of us. They completely do not care about this tradition and are happy to be saving the money by not having it.

That is so wrong!! Our school wanted to do away with it to - and then the nursing faculty got involved...we raised money to pay for ours - and we pay for our own pins and uniforms - not sure what money they are saving...

Ikr. Our school always has the senior class do a fundraiser to pay for pinning. Usually sailing candles. Most classes raise enough to even cover the picture and pin/lamp expenses too (if you get the basic pin). We raised enough to do all of that and offer 2 scholarships to our first year students.

In excited about pinning. My mom went to the same nursing school 13 some years ago.
