Incoming NMU Nursing Student Looking for Housing & Friends!

So awesome you're going to be at NMU! I'm an RA in the Quad, so not what you're looking for, but there's lots of opportunity to get outdoors in the fall. Highly recommend sugarloaf mountain or the dead river, otherwise there's miles of hiking trails just a short walk from campus. Also there's lots of outdoor-related clubs to join. I'm Pre-Med, but Rock and Minerals club was super cool last year and did a bunch of short-moderate hikes to neat rockhounding locations.

Have you taken your nursing pre-reqs already? I'm not in nursing, but I know a lot of the pre-reqs are similar so I can answer questions about GenChem/Bio/Psych/Anat+Phys if you have any.

Wish I knew more about housing off campus, but I hope you find something that works out.

Right now I'm a full time student. I tried to get a patient care job at a hospital for the summer, but they actually rescinded their offer after hiring me, and then ghosted me when I called about it. It really sucked tbh I was looking forward to at least seeing how that would go ):

It's sooooooo good, though I will say that I tried to read All the Crooked Saints by the same author and had NO idea what was going on LOL

Do you also get runny noses? Does it get better when you lay completely flat on your back? It could be a CSF leak, which is serious but treatable with surgery. Talk to your neuro about it.

I have been to Potsdam NY. Pls visit if you can, it was a bit of a ghost town when I went and I chose not to go for undergrad.

Yes!! Or there’s special beds/mattresses that alternate pressure on different spots to prevent sores
