Lake Superior College (LSC) will hold multiple Nursing Pinning Ceremonies for fall graduating students this Friday, December 12 in the Commons of the main campus.
LSC will graduate a total of 58 students from its Professional Nursing program this fall semester, nearly double last year’s fall semester ceremony. Due to the size of the fall graduating class, there will be two ceremonies. One for the morning cohort at 3:30 p.m. and another for the afternoon cohort at 6 p.m.
The formal pinning ceremony welcomes new nursing graduates into the nursing profession. New nurses are presented nursing pins by faculty or a loved one chosen by the graduate. Alison Trautt and Nicholas Kiehn will serve as student speakers for the morning and afternoon cohort ceremonies, respectively.
The Professional Nursing program at Lake Superior College is nationally accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN). Graduates of this program are qualified to take the Minnesota state nursing exam to become registered nurses.
Family and friends are invited to attend. A reception in Hawks Landing will be held following each ceremony.
