I
chose Nursing as my major because I grew up with a form of skin lupus and I was constantly
going in and out of hospitals. When you are little doctors talk mostly to your parents and it is really
easy to feel like you are pretty alone in whatever you are going through. I didn't really understand
what was wrong with me and I had so many questions and the doctors were intimidating, but the
nurses were the people that were able to make my experience a little bit easier. They knew how
to talk to me using words I understood and helped me feel like I had someone I could always ask
questions to. I want to be that person for others. I will forever be thankful for the nurses in my
lifetime and I want to be able to help people in the way that they helped me. - Tara Ippolito, Class of 2022
