Advancing the Future
 The College of Nursing, a National League for Nursing Center of Excellence in
Nursing Education, enjoys an international reputation for superior programs and
graduates. Collaborating with our colleagues, we will continue to develop
distinguished nursing alumni through our undergraduate and graduate programs, as
well as our continuing education programming, that will influence health care in
all parts of the globe. The future is bright.
As of March 1, 2007, the new College of Nursing building -- to be called
Driscoll Hall -- is under construction. By
summer 2008, this state-of-the-art facility opens to educate the next
generation of nurses. It will support student learning in technology-driven
clinical simulation labs and enhance an environment for learning, teaching and
scholarship. It will provide an atmosphere that stimulates advancing the future
of nursing. We invite you to join us in supporting this new building initiative.
“This facility is not about brick and mortar. It is about what will happen
inside—fostering the intellectual climate and continuing to cultivate a mature,
energetic professional school with a commitment to the preparation of clinical
experts and leaders for health care within the context of a values-driven
liberal arts education.”
