    Anoetos replied to dinah77's topic in General Students

    Anoetos replied to alyCNA's topic in School, College Programs

    The Frontline piece was fascinating. It was pretty fair, the conclusion seems to be that while there are clearly many cases of predatory and unethical activities, the for-profits serve a purpose. I...

    Do you still hold doors for women?

    Anoetos replied to gtshin30303's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I hold the door for everyone too. Yeah, I'd feel pretty lame if I didn't. On the other hand, if I am going through a doorway more or less simultaneously with another person, I am more likely to yield...

    Hollywood's Portrayal of Male Nurses?

    Anoetos replied to GiveMeFeedBack's topic in Male Nursing Students
