^ Exhibit A? Every job has those that think they are better than you, smarter than you, won't help you (or if they do they are exasperated then talk about how incompetent you are). You also have those that treat you as an equal, offer help/constructive criticism, guide/mentor you, and won't belittle you for their own personal self gratification. Nursing is no different.

Only input I have is that I have sent in my transcript evaluations November last year. No response. I have emailed, no response. I have called, left messages, no response. I do live in VA and am not hard pressed enough to drive down there though. I've finally given up and am currently looking into other schools. I hope your luck with them is better.

Television editing at its finest I am sure.

When was the CT? If contrast dye was used that could be causing kidney problems? Diabetic? Did he take glucophage within 48 hours after?

I would probably still be in nuclear engineering if I wasn't a nurse. I really would like to have been an astronomer/astrophysicist

So much for "critical thinking". I bet these people were the same that chose "notify the md" on the nclex. (I've learned that is normally never going to be the correct answer on the nclex).

Congratulations. I hope I never win that award, seems like a hassle.

In terms of financial aide, most schools participate in the Yellow Ribbon program. http://www.gibill.va.gov/GI_Bill_info/ch33/yellow_ribbon.htm

:devil:Surely just ONE cookie won't hurt!

I say the whole thing "Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus" I kid. I say MERSA...USA.

I have only had 2 experiences. One was an 80 something "L.O.L" who told me she was glad to have a white nurse because she didn't "like the blacks". I just ignored the comment and did my job. Another was with a male patient who didn't want to be taken care of by an asian male nurse (a co-worker) and he used the term "f****t gook" or something to that effect. I think most people have enough tact (I know, the irony) not to openly mention their prejudices in the hospital, albeit staff or patient.

I may get flamed for this, but...seriously? You obviously have access to the internet since you are posting this. Google is a wonderful thing.
