To France or bust. ✈️ 🇫🇷 8 nursing students (and nursing faculty) are off to Lourdes, where they’ll deepen their understanding of spiritual care, compassion, and service in nursing. Along the way, they’ll pray with Dominican sisters, visit sacred pilgrimage sites, and more.

If they could give their first-year selves one piece of advice, this is what they’d say. 🤍🎓 The Class of 2026 reflects on the last four years with messages of encouragement, reassurance, and a reminder that everything worked out the way it was meant to.
