<p>I am a great believer in the old fashioned hospital trained nursing program. I know a nurse who started a Pitt, became dissatified with the program and left it. She then enrolled in a hospital program and graduated top of her class. Eventually, she earned her BSN, but I cannot remember where she received her degree.</p>
<p>I would sincerely look into the program at Carlow. The Sisters of Mercy probably have done to advance nursing than anybody other than Florence Nightengale.</p>
<p>When I was at Duquesne in the late 1970, the nursing program had a sketchy reputation. Duquesne turned out great psychiatric nurses, hospital administrators said, but lacked some skills in other parts of nursing. However, I understand that the program had changed since I was an undergraduate.</p>
<p>Pitt’s nursing program has the reputation of accepting the best and the brightest, but often finds that it admitted too many students to the program</p>
<p>Or least this what nurses tell me</p>
