Happy Holidays!

We hope you have a wonderful holiday with your friends & family, however you may celebrate!

Break...

Well our students are all on break now until Spring semester, which begins January 10th. It's very quiet around campus today. Graduation was Saturday and we said goodbye to 36 fabulous nursing students who earned their BSNs.

Faculty are around today finishing grading and getting those grades turned in for the end of the semester. And we're all looking forward to our long weekend coming up.

Hope you have a wonderful holiday!

Classes have been fun this semester as I have been doing once a week clinicals. I had clinical for half the semester at Bryan West and the other half at St. Elizabeth's. I have learned a lot about scanning and patient care at both facilities. It is way cool that I'm only in my second year of college and I'm already getting clinical experience and I've even gotten to scan patients on my own.

Next semester we go to twice a week clinicals and some of the sites could even be outside of Lincoln. It will be nice to see the different facilities and see all the different types of scans at each place.

I can't believe it is already December! Next week is finals week. Only 11 more days until my christmas break officially begins. I will probably spend most of my break back home with friends and family. I can't wait to see everyone!

This is how I feel about finals week:

Nearing the End....

of the semester that is! Whoo hoo! Two days of class, plus next week and then a week of finals. Faculty and Staff are planning a potluck next Friday to get some home cooked food into the stomachs of our students before they dig in and study over the weekend for their finals!

This semester marks the first FULL semester that we've used the plastinates in Anatomy lab and Noelle, our birthing simulator, in the Simulation Center. We have such great resources for our students to take advantage of!

If you are thinking about applying to one of our programs our Fall deadlines are quickly approaching, February 1st for Nursing and February 15th fro Sonography!
