A coat, a commitment, a celebration
Seventy-two nursing students make transition from classroom learning to patient care
The “share” screen’s upper half started off dark toward the end of Thursday’s virtual White Coat Ceremony, almost like a gloaming sky. In phases, on command, cameras winked on, revealing tiny images of Norwich University nursing students in their new white coats. In waves, members of the Classes of 2020, 2021 and 2022 formed a tiny galaxy.
That the students shined starlike fit. Seventy-two of them had sworn an oath to keep humanity central as they progressed. Donning their white coats marked their transition from classroom-based instruction to the beginning of hands-on patient care.
