    Newbie from Utah

    After just lurking around for a little bit, I guess I need to announce myself. Last Month I received by 8 yd, 13 oz. MacLachlan tartan kilt I ordered in June from the Celtic Craft Centre during the Sottish games here in Salt Lake City, I bought it as a graduation gift to myself for graduating with my master's degree (my brag...UNC Chapel Hill). Since then I've received my sporran from Buzz Kidder, and bought a belt & buckle at our downtown scottish retail shop, Edinburgh Castle.

    But now that I'm here, A question. It is custom upon graduating from nursing school to be issued a nursing school pin, kind of like a school class ring. What do you think about that as a kilt pin?

    Welcome and congrats on all those things. My sister just graduated from nursing school in New Mexico. I say wear that pin and be proud, this country needs you.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…

    Welcome from Eastern Washington State. The purpose of the kilt pin is to keep the apron from flying up in the wind or whatever. I'm always looking for interesting kilt pins. If your school pin works for that, why not?

    First thing first, Welcome from the Los Angeles area.

    As to kilt pins, if it's the right size and got a bit of heft to it, why not.

    We use all kinds of different things as kilt pins, the more creative the better!!!!

    Welcome from Virginia! I say go with the pin! You're promoting your professional "clan" of healthcare providers. I think it's great; always best to personalize the kilt outfit, says I.
