27 Nursing students welcomed into LWC Bachelor Nursing "Ceremony of Blessing & Transition" held Sunday evening, October 27, 2018 at V.P. Henry Auditorium symbolizes entrance into program with blessing of hands, White Coat ceremony Click on headline for complete story, complete list of students (or, List alone), and photo(s) By Duane Bonifer COLUMBIA, KY - The science and art of nursing was extolled Sunday evening, October 27, 2013, at Lindsey Wilson College as the latest cohort of nurses was accepted into the college's nursing program.
