Lubbock AJ - Governor Greg Abbott announces support for TTUHSC School of Nursing Veteran to BSN Program
Abbott, on the panel of officials who introduced the new program at a special event Thursday at Tech, said a fault in this country is that those who serve in the military come back and have difficulty finding work.
“I can tell you for an absolute fact that I was able to be governor of Texas because there were nurses who worked around the clock, day after day, month after month, putting my life back together,” he said.
