Abstract
A future that happens for nursing will be created only if visionary nurses provide the necessary leadership. The experienced student is potentially part of the solution to our need for professional nurses, in terms of both quantity and quality. There is an obvious connection between recognizing the needs and potentials of students with life experience and the ideals of the curriculum revolution. In fact, it is possible that the student with life experience could be considered one of the motivating forces that drives the curriculum revolution toward its eventual victory.
