[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]for the love of g0d, do not get a bachelors of nursing.

I'm curious as to why!  Can you share more?  (Not my line of work.)[/quote]

Me too. I have a relative in their senior year of college studying nursing. They are happy and have a bright future.

I wonder if the idea is that you can become a nurse more quickly without it.[b] But education for the sake of education is also a good thing.[/b] Nursing is a broad field. There are many career paths. What is right for one person is not right for another.[/quote]
Not if that's the only goal, unless you have family money to fall back on.  College is too expensive to go there just for "education for the sake of education". Even OP's DC is worried about getting a good paying job, as most college students are.[/quote]

I want my children to be educated. I want them to be exposed to and engage with great thinkers. To ask questions, think critically, and communicate. This education will carry them through life and help them professionally. A great many employers value education.

A nurse who has studied ethics and Theology is going to have that inside them when interacting with patients. It can help with empathy and decision making. Writing and critical thinking skills are obvious assets to many career paths.[/quote]
