Congratulations to JCC Weekend Nursing Scholars

Jefferson Community College (JCC) held a Pinning Ceremony for graduates of the College’s second class of weekend scholars nursing program on December 15, 2012 in the College’s Sturtz Theater. Eight candidates for the Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree in nursing were eligible to take part in this special program. JCC’s “Weekend Scholars” are students who, beginning in January of 2011, attended classes at JCC every other weekend, on Fridays from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. The weekend, part-time format was developed in response to need in the community for more registered nurses and a more convenient way for more working adults to enter the healthcare field.
