  1. Has anyone ever escaped?

    trinitymaster replied to ellieheart's topic in General Nursing

    Ah yes, I fondly remember my first spoonful of sugar. And penguins, lots and lots of

  2. Would you quit over white uniforms?

    trinitymaster replied to TexMex22's topic in General Nursing

    Nice point. Nurses fought to not have to wear the hats and white dresses. However, with the glut at hand, nurses are expendable and my recommendation would be to go with the white uniforms. CAUTION:...

  3. Paying student loans

    trinitymaster replied to wanna b's topic in School, College Programs

    Fair Warning: An MBA from a school which is not AACSB accredited is not recommended. It will be fine for nursing if you do not plan on climbing the executive ladder, but useless if competing against...

  4. What did you give up to be in nursing school?

    trinitymaster replied to negatron's topic in General Students

    EXACTLY! I worked full-time through my ADN, BSN, and now my MSN. Grown-ups, at least us single ones with children, do not have the luxury of leaving our

  5. Why try the PVT?

    trinitymaster replied to ohhai's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes, I would like that information. Also your birth date, home address, and social security number. A personal phone number would also be nice in case any of us get lonely and need someone to talk

  6. Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    trinitymaster replied to dinah77's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Does that not describe people on both sides of the issue? Those that do not agree with the op's and their minions' opinions are labeled as ignorant (ad hominem, ad nauseam). Everyone wants to believe...

  7. Get the Bsn or leave nursing?

    trinitymaster replied to smartnurse1982's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    We need stricter standards to become a nurse. It is way too easy now with all of the for-profit institutions vomiting out nurses that have unlimited attempts to pass the NCLEX. A 3.87 GPA (in the...

  8. Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    trinitymaster replied to dinah77's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I said that there was PROOF not just evidence that vaccines are not quite as effective as scientists (term used quite loosely) would have us to believe. You transposed my words and changed the entire...

  9. Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    trinitymaster replied to dinah77's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Seriously? Are you really basing your discussion on the kindergarten science classes that we took to become nurses? It is disconcerting to hear condescending remarks from someone with such a minute...

  10. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    trinitymaster replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    The answer is SIX tablets. Two for the patient, two for you, and two for the Quality Control Nurse who has to explain to OIG why you have a BOTTLE instead of a

  11. What do you think about managers and employees being friends on Facebook?

    trinitymaster replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    All corporations have a "RED" line. If you friend your subordinates, that is grounds for termination. It does not matter that "EVERYONE" does

  12. Hospitals Firing Seasoned Nurses: Nurses FIGHT Back!

    trinitymaster replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    This has been discussed for years. Most nurses are not brave enough to unionize. You have to march and chant to no end. You have to be willing to give notice that you plan to participate in a strike....

  13. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    I would not mind the theory and research, so long as it was only one class. We have a theory, a research, and a combined theory and research class. Too much unless you are working toward an MSN in...

  14. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Research was a bear, but you will be okay. Theory and research is one of the easiest classes in terms of intensity. Ten weeks to do all of the work is much better than five. Like all the other...

  15. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Just turned in my research proposal for Theory and Research (UTA 5328). I am really hoping to get a good grade in this class. The program is spread out over ten weeks. There are times when you feel...

  16. Research?!! I'm scared!

    trinitymaster replied to JulieOrtiz's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Nursing research is horrible. Your group will make or break you. You generally have no control over who is in your group. It is worth it to endure this horrific class in order to attain your BSN. In...

  17. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    UTA NURS 5343 has been completed. It felt good to have a class that was straight forward. It was a lot of work, but if you follow the rubrics then it is doable. One bit of advice that I have is to...

  18. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    No C's in two classes. Ended up with a strong B after all was said and done. I am definitely academically bi-polar with the ups and downs that I have experienced during my short time in the UTA MSN...

  19. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    I am taking NURS 5343 Leadership Healthcare starting 8/11. I am in the MSN track. Are you in the NP program? I am really going to buckle down for this next class, I definitely do not want another C....

  20. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Failed the Statistics test in UTA 5301. My mind just went blank. Now hoping to make a high B on the final paper in order to get through this class by the skin of my teeth. This research class is no...

  21. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    So, last week of 5301 and I have to say that Graduate Level Research is just as horrible as undergraduate research. Just hoping that I can pull through this class without getting a C. My advice to...

  22. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    I will be happy as can be to get a B in 5301 research and move on. I do not understand how they grade, but then again I did not understand the grading system in the undergrad research class. My heart...

  23. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    43% according to the SA report this time. It seems that I need to adopt the motto "B=MSN". It would be nice if more people contributed to this forum. We could really help the next group coming...

  24. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Takes a load off of my mind. Hopefully we get our grades back faster than we did in the theory class. Although I do realize that it takes a long time to grade all of those

  25. UTA NURS 5327

    trinitymaster replied to trinitymaster's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    I had 12 pages in the body of the paper, one title page, and one reference page. Total of
