I hate group projects too, and I have one due in 3 weeks and nobody has done anything yet. As for animal experimentation, it seems to be a necessary evil, and I would have to say yes to it as long as it is done humanely, and the experiment is really necessary to gain knowledge for humans' afflictions/treatments. I can not even kill a seedling plant to weed through, and my pets have never been hit my me, just yelled at, so you can imagine I'm really not for hurting animals. But AIDS, and many other conditions need a cure, so if animals can help, I guess it's a grudging yes, with qualifications. Hope this helps, 'Dukes

Dear Chris, I'm sorry for your troubles. I'm a baby boomer aging RN, '71 grad, and through all the years, I have never seen discrimination because of age. Someone mentioned that maybe the internship positions/applicants may have been quite competitive, and for new grads...which is debatable in your case (you didn't specify what kind of internship it is). At any rate, you seem to have a lot to offer, and if you are in my neck of the woods, you'd be grabbed quickly, even if you are near retirement age! Good luck. 'Dukes
