“The initiation of the Nursing Alumni Association will foster ongoing communication among graduates, faculty, staff and former students. The Nursing Department’s vision is that the Nursing Alumni Association will become a popular forum for continued relationships and recognition of our accomplishments,” she said.
Annual dues to the Nursing Alumni Association, Williams said, will help fund scholarships for nursing students and support the Nursing Department in upholding its belief that culturally competent health care should be available to all who need it.
