Information and Resources for Graduate Nursing Students Worth Checking Out!  

We all get a million emails and don’t necessarily read them all, and sometimes that means we miss out on great opportunities. Here are some events, resources, and opportunities that may interest you! 

Graduate Nursing Writing Group
Mondays from 6:00-7:00pm January 25-May 10, 2021
Join via BBC: https://us.bbcollab.com/guest/b5722f1194c743fba6afc42e2f8f5727  

Graduate nursing students who are interested in supporting each other to develop their writing are invited to this weekly writing group hosted by the Graduate Nursing Student Nurses Association. The group is informal and we invite you to come when you can. We plan to cover one writing strategy each week and are open to your suggestions too! Ultimately, the group will decide how they would like to use this time. We hope to see you!
