WHY DID YOU CHOOSE NURSING? “Nursing is a great way to show God’s love and serve in a time of need. Learning the material can be really challenging but it’s a great feeling when you can apply your knowledge and it’s exciting to see the other people in your cohort learn and grow alongside you.”

Amelia Moore Junior nursing major

“I’ve always found medicine to be so interesting to me, and I knew I wanted to be in a profession that served others. I found that nursing perfectly embodied both of those passions.”

Cambria Osborn Junior nursing major

“I mean, have you seen our scrubs? I honestly don’t think there are major differences between us and other majors besides our schedules and clinicals. I love how a nurse can make a big difference in a patient’s life.”

Naomi Barrientos Senior nursing major

“I work with newborn babies; I work with children; I work with teenagers; I work with adults; I work with the elderly. I’ve been able to hold patients’ hands in their last moments. Nursing is one of the only careers where you get the privilege to see everyone in their life stages.“
