Alum Success

"My two business degrees from LSSU were instrumental in preparing me to work at all levels of Edison Sault Electric (ESE), concluding with the privilege of becoming ESE President in 1998. My company also takes pride in that 14 out of a total of 17 management personnel and about 20% of hourly employees at ESE either have degrees from or have attended a substantial number of classes at LSSU. Finally, our company and employees have contributed in excess of $500,000 to various LSSU projects over the last 25 years. ESE Believes in Blue."

Lake Superior State University provides a truly unique educational environment. Nursing students have clinical placements in both Michigan and Ontario Canada. Clinical settings include hospitals and health care centers in Sault Ste. Marie Michigan and Ontario, Cheboygan, Newberry, Petoskey, Marquette, and other communities throughout the eastern upper and northern lower peninsulas of Michigan and northern Ontario. This wide variety of clinical settings provides an opportunity to learn and adapt to a wide variety of care systems. This learning translates to a graduate who is highly flexible in the workplace and thus is highly sought by nursing recruiters.

Lake Superior State University nursing students chat with Rock 101 operations manager and mid-day DJ Mark SanAngelo before they record a series of public service announcements.
