Name: Miranda Richards
Age: 21
Major/Year: Nursing Junior
When do you expect to graduate?
Summer 2006, or fall 2006.
Do you live on campus?
Yes, I live in Phillipi Hall in Gorham. It’s a triple suite, which is nice because we have our own bathroom. Before that I lived for two years in Upton-Hastings. Next year though, I’ll have an apartment off campus.
Are you a working student?
Yes, I do two jobs. I am a CNA (Certified Nurse’s Aid) at Cedar’s Nursing home and I’m a receptionist for the Portland Sea Dogs.
The Sea Dogs job sounds fun, do you get to watch the games?
No, they do let us listen to a radio while the game is on. But I’m a Yankee’s fan anyways.
What do you plan to do with your degree?
Well, I’m not totally sure yet. But I think I’m gonna work in a Boston area hospital. They have bigger hospitals down there and the pay is better. I’d really like to be a neo-natal nurse.
