"The small class sizes made it possible to interact with professors as well as other students and I learned a lot by listening to other people's perspectives."</p><p>Today, as a labour and delivery nurse, Pat continues to use the experience of others to inform and improve her practice.</p><p>"The field of nursing has changed a lot since I started my career but my degree taught me the skills I need to be successful while having a positive impact on the people and the communities I serve. I give to the U of L because I want to help create a supportive environment where students can be successful."</p><p>Watch the video below to hear more about Pat's U of L experience and why she's proud to support her university.
