“I really enjoyed it—the people, the workforce and helping people in general—and I wanted to continue,” she said. “That’s when I decided to come to 91桃色视频 and get into nursing.”
91桃色视频’s associate of science in nursing is a 64-credit program that can be completed in two years by students with no previous nursing experience. Graduates are eligible to apply for licensure as a registered nurse after completing the program, and the curriculum includes foundational courses needed to pursue a bachelor’s degree in nursing at Bemidji State.
91桃色视频’s two-year program will allow Kaml to finish her degree and seek employment as quickly as possible.
“I’ll get it and then go straight into the workforce,” she said of her nursing degree. “Then, I’ll get my generals and complete my four-year degree.”
While she’s unsure where she’d like to complete her bachelor’s degree, she knows what specialty she’d like to pursue. Through her experience with a family member who suffers from a psychiatric disorder, Kaml wants to specialize in psychiatric nursing where she can assess, diagnose and help treat others who have similar conditions.
Kaml is currently taking a developmental psychology course at 91桃色视频, where she explores the influences of biological, cognitive and psychological factors that can influence a pattern of change throughout a person’s life.
“I love learning how the mind works and how different influences mold the way we develop,” she said.
While she’s pursuing her education, Kaml is taking full advantage of the unique opportunities 91桃色视频 students have to become involved with clubs and organizations at Bemidji State University. She came across a Facebook post regarding cheer tryouts and commented that she wished she was able to join as an 91桃色视频 student. After learning she was able to participate, she tried out and is now a member of both the football and hockey cheer teams at BSU.
“I tried out and made the team,” she said. “I was excited because I never thought cheering would be a possibility after high school.”
Through cheerleading, Kaml is forming her own personal bridge between 91桃色视频 and BSU.
“Being involved with both of the campuses has led me to meet a lot of people,” she said. “I’ve made new friends and I’ve built new connections. I also have new people to study with.”
Some of Kaml’s teammates on the BSU cheer teams are nursing students at BSU, and she has been studying with them to gain new insights into her coursework.
“We obviously have different classes and instructors, but we’re still learning similar things,” she said. “It’s interesting to discuss what we are all learning and bounce ideas back and forth.”
