Galen Students Participate in History Exhibit
|
 Students at
Galen College of Nursing's Louisville
campus had the opportunity to serve the community, show the community who they
are, and learn more about nursing and the role of nursing during World War II.
Galen was invited to have an exhibit at Frazier International
History Museum's
World War II exhibit which began on October 10, 2009. Nursing students made a
poster display with 1940s artifacts. The student nurses helped children select
coloring pages, stickers, and post cards, and make and dress paper dolls as
World War II nurses.

 Galen staff, faculty and students participated in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's 11th annual Light The
Night Walk Oct. 3 at Louisville's Great Lawn of Waterfront Park. Light The Night is a nationwide evening walk to celebrate and commemorate people whose lives have been touched by cancer.
