Citizen Scholars: The Human Side of Service-Learning

How nursing professors help students find their "why"

Nursing has long been considered "the most honest and ethical profession." But it's not an easy job, demanding the upmost skill, resolve, and a strong heart for service from its labor force. Dr. Cindi Aurentz and Maria Shade, Associate Professors from Missouri State University's School of Nursing know the benefits and the challenges nurses face better than anyone. They discuss preparing students, how service-learning plays a central role, and the kinds of moment that helps students find out why they truly want to be a nurse.
