What would you want?

Specializes in Peds, education.

We will be having a new student orientation :nurse: soon at my college. During the process, we have drawings. We always give away a textbook or study aid, but what would be something you would want to get for free?

We have had suggestions such as highlighters, post-its, index cards, and notebooks. Someone suggested a computer, but our budget is NOT that big.

Do any of you have suggestions of items you would like to receive?

Thanks for your input!:heartbeat

Get them a gift certificate for a massage. It will come in handy when they start the semester!

No, I don't think I will give any students any phone numbers for other students no matter how cute.;)

starbucks gift cars, study guides like the success series, nursing/school t-shirts, bandage scissors which are inexpensive, or a text book would great! Also could you call my school and tell them to do this!

Grocery store, gas station, or Wal-Mart gift certificate would be useful to a student who is self-supporting.
