We should Teach Nursing and Computer Science at Humboldt State University. Approve Funding for Practical Majors.

We need to fund the Nursing Department at Humboldt State University in Arcata, California. Currently, a person cannot study to become a nurse here... I predict that in the future we will need nurses. No BS degree offered.

Also restore the computer science department... I predict that computers will become popular and students that have CS degrees will be able to get jobs... really... Why NOT teach practical and useful skills at school.  http://humboldt.edu/computerscience/


After graduation with a BS CIS, I immediately got a job at the County of Humboldt. I used a computer all day every day interviewing clients and entering their data. Then I used the computers to determine eligibility and what benefits clients would receive. I learned how to use a computer at HSU and would not have gotten the job without this knowledge. I also became the "go to" guy when other employees were having trouble with their computers. I wrote a series of step by step instructional emails for troubleshooting common problems. When a co-worker called me, stumped... I just emailed the solution and became the Hero for the Day...
