I’ve also had chemistry I and II, physics I and II. I guess I’m kind of a science nerd, I like studying plants and animals. I call myself a field biologist, which is kind of a five dollar word for a bored farmer.

Oklahoma State University is adding a bachelor’s of nursing program to its Stillwater campus this fall. The addition will help combat the state’s nursing shortage. Oklahoma has been in a nursing shortage for decades, and the pandemic worsened it. The state ranks 46th for nurses per capita. One of many contributing factors: nursing school barriers.
