Why I Chose FranU
July 19, 2023
My name is Baylea Douglas, I am 20 years old. I am the oldest of three siblings and
I am from Livingston, Louisiana. I am in FranU’s Bachelors of Nursing (BSN) program
and just completed my first semester of the clinical nursing program. I have always
felt I was called to serve others and had an interest in the medical field, so I became
a certified medical assistant in high school. Through my experience as a medical assistant,
I realized I wanted to continue my education to become a registered nurse. I thought
that nursing was the perfect way to serve God by helping others. A speaker from FranU
came to speak at my school and I knew it was the place for me. I love the community
that is provided when you attend FranU. I feel at home and have made many life-long
friends. I love the smaller classes and the professors who are willing to help you
in any way they can. I also believe that an education centered in Christ is so important,
especially in a major like Nursing. It makes a huge difference when you enter the
clinical setting and interact with patients who maybe having the worst day of their
lives. Showing them love and compassion can make such a difference, and I feel FranU
does a great job in encouraging academic excellence, as well as the importance of
respecting and loving others as God loves us. I am excited to continue my education
at FranU this fall!
