Blood drive honors nursing school’s 100th birthday

As part of the 100th birthday celebration for Baylor’s Louise Herrington School of Nursing, pre-nursing students in the National Student Nurses’ Association partnered with Alpha Phi Omega in a blood drive earlier this month. Their goal: to raise 100 pints of blood in honor of the nursing school’s 100-year history.

Faculty, staff, students and other volunteers came through in a big way; together, the effort collected 614 pints of blood — six times the group’s goal! What a tremendous boost to local blood banks — a great gift to the Waco community.

Sic ’em, Baylor student nurses!
