The California State University, Stanislaus Nursing Program recently received a healthy booster shot thanks to a $270,000 Kaiser Permanente gift that will allow more nursing students to graduate with college degrees. The gift addresses a local, statewide, and nationwide demand for nurses and will support the University’s expanding Nursing Program that is focused on helping provide more graduates to meet the state’s continuing need for skilled nurses.
California State University, Stanislaus student Jean’ann Miller, an aspiring teacher and single mother who returned to college after determinedly overcoming obstacles in her life, has been honored as one of the scholarship recipients of the William Randolph Hearst/CSU Trustees Award for Outstanding Achievement.
With the debut of the new Master of Science in Nursing degree featuring concentrations in Nursing Education and Gerontology coming to California State University, Stanislaus in February 2009, information sessions on the new program have been scheduled for Tuesday, September 23.
Two programs will be held in Room 130 of the Mary Stuart Rogers Educational Services Gateway Building, the first from noon to 1:30 p.m. and the second from 4:30 to 6 p.m.
