Hamilton College - Cedar
Rapids announced today that it will host a graduation ceremony for 181
students on Thursday, Sept. 21, 2006. The ceremony will begin at 6 p.m. at
the Paramount Theatre at 370 First Avenue NE in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. State
Sen. Mary Lundby (R-Iowa), Republican Floor Leader for the Iowa Legislature,
will keynote the ceremony.
The ceremony will recognize 181 students who have earned bachelor's
degrees, associate's degrees and diplomas in programs ranging from business
administration, computer information systems, allied health and criminal
justice. Upon graduation, students will be prepared for entry-level jobs in
their area of study.
Of the 181 graduating students, 49 will represent the school's first class
from its Practical Nursing program. In order to help address the state's
nursing shortage, Hamilton added practical nursing diploma programs at four of
its campuses last year, including Cedar Rapids, Cedar Falls, Mason City and
Des Moines. Each of the campuses can accommodate 48 to 128 nursing students
per year. Upon completion of the program, students may be eligible to take
the National Council Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses (NCLEX-PN).
Hamilton College is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) and
a member of the North Central Association. HLC can be reached at
