And the Winners Are...
Nurses tell great stories! We are pleased to announce the winners of the 2020-2021 UNMC College of Nursing Creative Writing Awards.
They were selected from 61 entrants from all 5 campuses and all degree programs in the College of Nursing, who wrote great stories, poems and songs and who made this such a difficult contest to judge. Many thanks as well to all our faculty and external judges who made this possible!
Congratulations to these six Award winners, eight Honorable Mention, and 9 additional Publication Awards: all will be printed in the Creative Writing Awards Publication coming soon.
