Moving Forward

Happy Friday!

Although it is rainy outside, it has been an exciting Friday morning. My day started with the Staff Meeting where eight of our staff told the story of the "Bodacious Babes from Black Buzzard Bend!" It was so much fun. Little did I know that we had such actresses among our group. From there, I went up to the Simulation Lab where Teressa Wexler, Coordinator of this lab, hosted a group of people visiting from Brazil. They were all very excited by the different types of simulators that our students use. Then I walked back to the garden level for Sandra Calhoun's dissertation defense. Sandra is one of our faculty. It was a wonderful morning and highlights the many activities that go on here in the College of Nursing.

Next week, we will be equally busy but also equally excited. The week starts with the faculty strategic planning day. This will be followed on Tuesday with the visit from the state consultants to look at our DNP proposal. We are hopeful that this will be very successful.

I hope that you will find this blog on your searching on the net for nursing activities at ETSU. And when you do, that you will let us know what you are doing. Soon we will be revealing our new logo and slogan. We continue to look forward to new beginnings!
