The nursing program taught me to be self-directed, resourceful, and sensitive to all cultures and systems, which has proven invaluable,” said Maggie Dawidczyk ’10, who went on to earn her master’s degree as a clinical nurse leader. She works as the nurse manager for the Trauma/General Surgery & Colorectal Surgery unit at Strong Memorial Hospital.
