Congratulations to Arkansas State University Nurse Anesthesia Cohort 3! 🎓✨
The first week of May marked the end of years of sacrifice, hard work, long nights, and dedication and the beginning of an incredible career as CRNAs. This class has truly been inspiring to watch, and the future of anesthesia is brighter because of each of you.
Even more exciting, nearly one-third of the class has already passed boards and officially entered the profession. Such an amazing accomplishment and a true reflection of the excellence within this cohort.
Wishing you all nothing but success, happiness, and fulfillment in this next chapter. You earned every bit of this moment. ❤️🖤

Annual ARANA Meeting of 2026! 💉
This year, students attended the Spring ARANA Conference in Little Rock to network and learn more about the anesthesia profession.
Senior SRNAs presented their DNP projects over the following topics:
- Impact of Evidence-Based Education on the Effects of Excessive Screen Time Among SRNAs
- Evaluating The Impact of Evidence-Based Education on the Utilization of Preoperative Gastric Ultrasound for Patients on GLP-1 Agonist
- Educating Anesthesia Providers Regarding Evidence-Based Practice Interventions to Decrease Postoperative Delirium in the Geriatric Population
We also participated in the second annual quiz bowl! Students battled amongst each other, trialing through questions to ultimately go up against current CRNAs! Congratulations to students of UAMS for winning this year! 🏆
We’d like thank the sponsors of the event:
