Hi guys,
I am currently in a nursing program where I am MISERABLE!!! I decided to give this place a chance for almost 1 year and I had to tolerate non-nurturing staff (professors, lab instructors, etc) who were rude, disgruntled, arrogant and did not care if I needed help in my courses. Also- lack of ORGANIZATION!!! Despite expressing my concerns to the administrative staff of the department, it all fell on deaf ears. I felt alone, and I was told by a professor, "it is what it is." I came to the realization that this is a money making business- therefore, I am taking my business elsewhere. To add insult to injury, the curriculum was changed and I was told that my courses from last semester (Spring 2008) would not be applied towards my degree. One of my collegues filed a complaint and was met with opposition and told if she doesn't like it; there's the door. No one should be subjected to this treatment. This I believe is one of the reasons why there is a nursing shortage.
Can anyone at this point recommend schools- accelerated, dual degree that have good resources, professional staff and some unification among students. This time around I want to make sure that I do my homework THOROUGHLY. All suggestions and comments appreciated.
