Fifth Class Of TELACU Nurses Graduate

The fifth class of nurses to graduate from Rio Hondo College since White Memorial Medical Center and TELACU developed a scholarship program in 2003 celebrated their accomplishment at the end of May. The scholarships are provided to 10 young people each year from the East Los Angeles community who are pursuing an R.N. degree. The scholarship monies help the students with books, tuition, living expenses, computer equipment and other needs so they can concentrate on their schooling at Rio Hondo. Each recipient met financial need and other criteria, and was selected after a thorough application and interviewing process. Four of the nurses who graduated have now entered the WMMC RN Residency Program, which begins its next session on July 7.
