Explaination, in case anyone is interested.....

Because ours is a part-time class, we are pinning with the winter graduating class. We will have our last semester (Leadership) in the spring, but the semester is only 5 weeks long. We would have to to wait for the full-time class to catch up before we could pin and that would be in April or May.

So rather than making us wait, they are pinning us early. We still have our graduation ceremony in April.

Our class will be about 100-150 nursing students. There will be another hundred in the spring. (Ours is one of the largest nursing schools in the country.) They hold it in the gymnasium of the largest campus (Kendall).
