Day at School

Lynne, Meg, Me :)

As part of our informatics class, our instructor notified us that we would be meeting at the main campus of CBU. Lynne, Rebecca, Meg and I carpooled up to Riverside. We met with the other students and our instructors and were toured around the campus. We stopped by the bookstore aka gift shop (bought a couple shirts and a cup for myself and a sweatshirt for my mom) and had dinner at the cafeteria. The campus was beatiful and the food was actually quite tasty. We then went back to the school of nursing and tried out the simulation lab. I was excited to see all that was offered by this school and disappointed that my ADN program (at another school) didn't offer such educational and fun tools. There was even an IV simulator on a computer that allows students to pull their supplies based on the scenario. The students were required to use each item in the correct sequence and attempt an iv start in a dummy arm. Even though I am a pretty good stick, I was unable to successfully start the iv in the simulator. Bummer :( Overall, I was happy to be on campus as an "official" student. As much as an overnight stay in the dorm would have topped it off, I am happy to be at home with my puppy in my favorite recliner :)
