The wait list at Durham Tech may be increasing. They have had to cancel the start of this fall NUR 101 class and will not enroll again until Jan 07. I am in the program (start NUR 102 next week) and waited for 1 and 1/2 years plus I deferred the 1st semester offered to me because I was notified a week before class started that I had a slot. To say that I am not pleased with the program is an understatement, but I am moving out of state at the end of this year for my husband's job and it makes sense to finish before I go so I can work in VA while I wait for my 1 year of residency for in-state tuition.

Last week we were reissued our dress code that requires white underwear (including bra). We all protested but since this also came with a three strikes and you're out rule, we are stuck. I don't like this especiall because I am black nothning is left to the imagination. This just reminds me why I don't wear white at work now, and why I don't plan to in the future.

thanks to all of the suggestions. I was able to get my uniform clean. I used the rit dye color remover (this did not take it all out) and the coke took out the rest. Thanks to all who responded. I am not sure if the alcohol (90%) and hairspray did not work because it was a gel pen, but I am glad to have it clean. I called the three shops in my town and a nearby city and they did not carry any tops similiar to my schoo uniform (white top with buttons for the pinafore) so these answers were right on time. Once again I see why the allnurses community is the best :loveya: ! Arlena

Hi All, Doe anyone have any tips for getting ink out of a nursing school uniforms? I washed mine with a black gel pen and have blotched spots. I have tried carpet cleaner (turned from black to light brown), hairspray, and alcohol. I made due today with chalk of all things. I would appreciate any tips. I am willing to try anything since it will take 3 weeks to get another set of uniforms. Thanks, Arlena N LPN Student 1st semester

I just started in Jan. I was really scared, but since I have gooten into it, I am going to be just fine. The only thing that I am worried about is the Pharm section. We must pass the final with a 90 or better or we fail NUR 101.
