Megan Mileski believes her instructors played a huge part in her career choice. "The dedication, expertise and compassion shown by my professors influenced my decision to become a nurse educator because I wanted to do the same for nursing students," she said. She loves Ephesians 2:8–9, "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast."
