"It was August, 1965. My parents came to graduation and I bought my first car, a '65 avocado green convertible Mustang. Now let me think, what was more exciting to a young girl with the world at her feet. Now in 2008, the Mustang is long gone, but my nursing career has spanned more than four decades. And what a career it has been and I am thankful for the education I received at Clarkson and for the support from my family. 

In 1988, at the 100-year event, I received the Distinguished Alumna Award. I came back to Clarkson and spoke at the meeting, enjoyed lots of festivities. That was a real treat for me."

"One of my Clarkson memories from the class of '67 are that we got all the food we wanted at breakfast, lunch and dinner because it was included in our tuition. The hospital cafeteria had excellent chow. You could go back again for seconds and unlimited everything. I came from a family where my mother didn't enjoy cooking, and I was really happy with the wonderful meals and desserts! It is amazing that I remained so slim during training."
