Dear Pauline,

Although I enjoyed your Nursing Program article very much and know many of the staff from my 20 years as an employee of GCC, Karen Whalen is the nursing instructor you were referring to in your article. I worked as an Administrative Assistant in the Health Center and while I knew Karen I did not teach her classes (my former life as a Dental Assistant doesn’t even come close to what a Registered Nurse needs to know or do). I am glad I happened to be on campus yesterday and the El VAQ was there for me to bring home to read. I hope it is possible to print a correction before the end of the semester.

Sincerely,
Karen Wharton, Retired
(GCC Health Center)
