Polk State Nursing fall 2022 pinning ceremony
Polk State Nursing celebrated its fall 2022 graduates with a pinning ceremony on December 7 on the Winter Haven Campus. The candlelight processional represents the traditional “Light of Knowledge” and “Ray of Hope” associated with the lamp that Florence Nightingale carried as she visited sick and wounded soldiers during the Crimean War. Receiving the Polk State College Nursing Pin symbolizes the successful completion of the program of study.
