Eighteen of these students were able to attend the NCANS conference this year and meet the keynote speaker Ms. Colorado. During the pinning ceremony Angela Boyd reminded these students of Ms. Colorado's words that they are more than "just a nurse" and encouraged them to continue in a professional organization during their nursing career. Nursing instructor Angela Boyd said, "[she] was honored to serve as the faculty advisor this year and proud of each and every one of these students."
