Nursing student calls in bomb threat to delay tests
"Danielle M. Sylvia, 27, of Salem, Ore., told detectives she
previously failed out of the nursing program at
Chemeketa Community College, but was reinstated as a
probationary student in January. Sylvia said she
made the two calls, one on Feb. 13 and one on Feb. 27, to
avoid tests due on the dates."
So many thoughts running through my head about this news.
Does Danielle have a mental health challenge? If so, did she
get the help she needed?
What message does this send to nursing programs and
faculty?
Read more about the story. Please share your thoughts.
