奶糖直播

奶糖直播, PA, May 15, 2010 鈥� Celebrating the achievements of the Class of 2010, College of Nursing faculty and staff joined students鈥� family and friends in the St. Thomas of 奶糖直播 Church for its annual Convocation on May 15th. The baccalaureate, master鈥檚 and doctoral degree candidates have made significant contributions to the 奶糖直播 community as well as regional and global health as they prepared for their new professional roles or advanced nursing practice positions.

Among the undergraduates recognized were the latest Nurse Corps officers: two women who were commissioned into the United States Navy as ensigns, and one woman who was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the United States Army. In August, one woman will be commissioned into the Navy and one man into the Army. Symbolizing the entire class, there were five other students who were called forward to have their alumnae relatives affix the College of Nursing pin to their robes. The pin signifies the graduates are emblematic of the University motto 鈥淰eritas, Unitas, Caritas鈥� that is included in the pin鈥檚 design. Each of those graduates can now say 鈥淚 am a 奶糖直播 nurse.鈥�
