Last week, I went to the Opening Reception for the South Shore Art Center's current Media Mix…read moreexhibition (one of my pieces is in the show!) What a lovely evening! And, crowded, too -the entire gallery space was packed! There was food, beer, wine, live jazz music, awards, and lots of beautiful artwork! :) If you have never been, there are basically 2 main gallery spaces, the Bancroft Gallery & the Dillon Gallery. The Bancroft gallery is the larger space where Media Mix is being shown. I like this space very much! It has large walls on one side of it, and shorter walls on the other side with ample lighting. The walls seem to be some kind of upholstered plywood which makes for easy positioning of paintings. (No worrying about hiding nail holes!) There is also a hardwood floor which makes the entire space look modern and clean. The Dillon Gallery is smaller and darker. There was an exhibit of Italian paintings in there, which I enjoyed very much! This was really my first involvement with the South Shore Art Center, but overall, it seems to be a great place to view and learn about art! Everyone I met there is very friendly, and happy to meet local artists. It is also located in a beautiful town! I highly recommend stopping by to take a peek: http://blog.thelonebeader.com/2010/03/media-mix-opening-reception.html

The LPN who teaches is very knowledgeable and likes to be hands on. She also makes a note of your career goals and puts graduates in touch with employers. Clinicals take place at Hancock Park. I was a little disappointed that we wouldn't be visiting any hospitals but let's face it-- most of the patients at hospitals are elderly and the equipment is the same. It was confusing signing up because as I learned later there is no administrative office handling calls. Your best bet is to contact the Cambridge branch. I really don't have any negatives other than how hard it was to get someone to call me back and answer my questions. Ten minutes after I took the proficiency test and got 100 I found out college students are exempt. If you have any questions feel free to message me. Otherwise, go ahead and get certified here if you are thinking about nursing or PA programs. It's definitely worth the work experience that you will get and you'll find out quickly if healthcare is right for you.

I'm a disabled veteran and have certain accommodations that I'm learning how to ask for. I was worried it wasn't for me. But they reassured me I belong there and can benefit greatly. Taking the time to listen to someone is rare these days. But it's the difference between someone being just a data point vs a person for a company. Exceptional customer service is an art form.

Unethical Billing Practices & Transcript Withholding - BEWARE…read more I attended Quincy College years ago and recently requested my transcript for an important career opportunity. To my shock, they are charging me for a summer course I never attended, claiming I was present despite having no records or recollection of ever enrolling. The professor insists I was there, yet I know for a fact I never took the class. Now, Quincy College is refusing to release my transcript, effectively holding my education hostage over a false charge from seven years ago. Instead of helping resolve the issue, they've been dismissive and unhelpful, pushing me to dispute it with a professor rather than addressing their own records. This kind of careless administration and unethical billing is completely unacceptable. If you're considering Quincy College, be extremely cautious--they may charge you for classes you never took and block access to your own academic records. I'll be escalating this to the Attorney General's office and legal action if necessary. No school should operate this way. Avoid Quincy College if you value transparency and fairness.
