BATON ROUGE - There’s a new class of graduates at Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University joining the workforce in Louisiana. Many of them include nurses who are badly needed in their community and elsewhere.
On Saturday at the Raising Canes River Center, graduates from FranU's School of Nursing crossed the stage into the next chapter of their lives.
"I feel happy and nervous to start the real world," graduate Noah Ducote said.
It was the first in-person graduation ceremony the school has held inside since the pandemic began. Some of the face masks worn during the ceremony served as a reminder of what lies ahead.
