Lake State Student Nurses Association (LSSNA)
About LSSNA:The Lake State Student Nurses Association (LSSNA) is a prominent voice and outlet for baccalaureate nursing students at Lake Superior State University. We are an energetic organization and have been very busy over the past year. Our organization membership maintains a count between thirty to fifty members.
LSSNA is a chapter of the National Student Nurses' Association (NSNA) which is the professional nursing organization for students. The hierarchy within NSNA includes national, state, and chapter levels. Each level of the professional nursing student association has been and is directed by nursing students. NSNA is sponsored by the American Nurses' Association and the National League for Nursing.
Membership in LSSNA is voluntary and open to students enrolled in pre-nursing and nursing at Lake Superior State University. Being a member provides an excellent way to meet fellow nursing students who can serve as resource people as you progress though the nursing program. LSSNA members are active in community activities and in organizational fundraisers. Each year up to 25 LSSNA students are sponsored by LSSNA to attend the Michigan Nurses Student Association's (MNSA) Annual Convention. Any LSSNA member is also eligible to be elected to LSSNA's Board of Directors; as a delegate to the Michigan Nursing Student Association's Annual Convention; class representative; or student representative on Department of Nursing committees. Members also receive NSNA's publication Imprint and MNSA's newsletter Nurse Talk.
