“Thirty-five years of nursing education has taught me the importance of student focused education. Every activity and every class that we plan centers on what is best for our nursing students. It is a pleasure to work with faculty that understand how important our students are to us and give so sacrificially to be sure they get the very best. It is an honor to work with this group and the very best nursing students around. What an awesome team to accomplish production of the most outstanding nurses for our future.”
