Jacksonville State University expects a high caliber work ethic. As a STEP student, communication and leadership are expected to be demonstrated in new found writing skills of each nursing student. The students must display the ability to critically think as well as contribute significantly to the learning of others. Determination and a strong desire to complete our formal nursing education is a plus. Every assignment must be approached with preparedness and enthusiam about the process of learning. Most importantly, students need to possess the desire and willingness to complete their education so they can continue to help others.
