During this unprecedented time many nursing students at Felician University have had to deal with the death of family members and friends, falling ill ourselves, taking care of elderly family members/clients, protecting and homeschooling our children, losing our jobs, and being fearful in uncertain times.  With many feeling hopeless, why not give your nursing students a ray of hope?  We ask that Felician University administration consider their nursing students and the struggle we have endured this semester- we ask that administration considers lowering the pass/fail grade for Spring 2020 semester for all the nursing students currently in the program.  

*** A 77 is required to pass nursing at Felician, under normal circumstances that is difficult...under extreme circumstances it is almost impossible.  Administration has responded to this by opening sections for the summer, but that is simply unacceptable.  Students SHOULD NOT be penalized because their learning has been directly affected by COVID-19!
