The Connell School has renewed its commitment to developing and
nurturing a diverse nursing workforce through the formation of a
Diversity Advisory Board. Associate Dean of the Undergradute Program
Cathy Read states, "As part of a university whose mission is to unite
high academic achievement with service to others, the Connell School is
uniquely positioned to provide leadership for change. The Diversity
Advisory Board will provide insight and guidance as the school plans
and implements programs that reflect a commitment to advancing and
sustaining an organizational culture that fully welcomes diversity and
inclusiveness."
