Announcement - Officer Nominations 2009

It is fast approaching time to elect new officers. All positions will be open this year. If you are interested in serving or wish to nominate someone, please notify Lisa Engel (lgengel@harding.edu) or Michelle Mason (mmason@wcmc.org). Officer qualifications and responsibilities can be found at the STTI website(http://www.nursingsociety.org/Chapters/Resources/Pages/chapter_officer_resources.aspx). We are always looking to get people from outside the College of Nursing involved!

Spring 2009 Research Poster Awards

Each semester members of Epsilon Omicron review the College of Nursing's student posters from the Nurs 412 research course. The posters are judged on scholastic merit and presentation. The prizes are certificates and a monetary reward. We currently award $50 for first place, $40 for second, and $30 for third. For the fall 2008 course, we had a tie for third, so 4 posters received recognization. The winners and poster titles are:

1st Place "Culture is the Key" by Elizabeth Allen Fonville (Epsilon Omicron member) and Jillian Florence.

2nd Place "Canine Comfort" by Bronwyn Alexander and Haley Grant.

3rd Place "What to Expect When You're Expecting as a Teenager" by Katrina Miller (Epsilon Omicron member) and Gwendolyn Scott (Epsilon Omicron member).

3rd Place "Sun Protection is Fun" by Sarah Cox (Epsilon Omicron member) and Samantha Jones.

Congratulations to our winners! It is great to see so many of our current members honored.
