NECC welcomes new crop of nursing students

NORFOLK, Neb. (KTIV/US92) -

As a Siouxland school of nursing begins its third year, a new crop of nursing students will be welcomed with a ceremony Friday.

Officials with the University of Nebraska Medical Center say that their nursing school on the campus of Northeast Community College will be participating as part of the annual statewide white coat ceremonies Friday.

The ceremony serves as the first time new students will don their white coats provided by alumni and school donors for the first time, and will also take an oath of professionalism. The ceremony in Norfolk comes at the start of the third year that UNMC has hosted classes in the new nursing building on campus.

The college that offers both two and four year nursing degrees graduated their first classes last semester and school officials say they building continues to be a success. Friday's white coat ceremony will be at Northeast's Cox Activities Center and starts at 2:00 p.m.
