  7. I would hope someone would come to the Ed if "they" thought "they" had a possible STD ( esp.if there is no pcp). But it sounds like your being more specific about the type of person that comes to your Ed for any of these problems. As a nurse, I wou...
  8. I strongly disagree. I voted Yes. The US is one of the riches countries despite the finiacial issues that have occured. There is no poor, middle class, and upper class anymore. There's just rich and poor. And those who do work wheter F/T or P/T are p...

    Definetly A Roller bookbag..more than likely you'll have modules, textbooks, (I have like 4 big binders). So to be on the safe side stick to the rollerbag. Towards the end of the year you can use a backpack. Good Luck:up:
