Aultman College graduated 42 students, and 15 of them made school history. The 15 were the first students to earn a four-year bachelor s degree in nursing from Aultman.
The others receiving diplomas included 22 associate degrees in radiography. Five were nurses who returned to school to finish their bachelor s degree.
Destiny Johnson earned an associate degree. You go through a lot during your two years, and to come out of it at the end feels great, Johnson said.
Peloton
A class action lawsuit has been filed against Peloton for a spate of injuries tied to Tread Plus.
Lobbyists and lawmakers are urging the company to recall the treadmill after it refused last week.
The suit says Peloton has known, or should have known, of the defective nature of the Tread Plus.
As Peloton deals with mounting criticism over its refusal to recall its Tread+, the fitness company now faces a class-action lawsuit from unhappy customers.
According to the suit filed on April 20, lead plaintiff Shannon Albright alleges Peloton violated consumer protection laws and that Peloton has known, or should have known, of the defective nature of its Tread+ product. It further states the company sold and marketed the device as safe and appropriate for use by families in the home, even though its design makes it inherently and uniquely dangerous to children.
