Grays Harbor College graduating nursing students will be honored at the traditional Nurses’ Pinning Ceremony Saturday at 11 a.m. at the Bishop Performing Arts Center. Planned by the Student Nursing Association, the annual event focuses on the individual graduates, their instructors in the associate degree program and the history of the college’s nursing program.
