    Thanks for the advice, but I'm not eligible for any nurse fellowships in my area as they all require a BSN and I'm graduating from an ASN program. I'm going right into a BSN program (starts 10 days...

    Losing respect for nursing students

    The hair thing is crazy and you're right about gross. During clinical, we are not allowed any hair on our shoulders. For me that means wearing a ponytail. I have noticed some past professors not...

    Losing respect for nursing students

    I haven't read through all the replies, but I think all the comments on age having to do with respect and eagerness is unfounded. There is quite a mix of ages amongst students in my class. I find...
