Hawaii: Mix of Everything

Submitted by Emily Black on the 2022 winter session program in Hawaii sponsored by the College of Health Sciences…

For our last week in Hawaii, we did a mix of everything we still wanted to accomplish before leaving. For education, we went to Pearl Harbor to tour the USS Arizona and the USS Missouri to learn about the war and the way the nurses impacted the war effort. It was really impactful to be at the actual start and end of the war in the Pacific. In the middle of the week, we met for class and submitted final papers to end the program. We celebrated with a Luau at the end of the week. We got dressed up in the floral patterns and someone from our group even won the hula competition!!
