Nurses on campus
We are well into the fall semester and faculty, staff and students continue to adjust to a changed situation. Faculty and staff continue working hard with the focus on student learning and academic success strategies. Many classes are in a hybrid format and some are online. Nursing clinical experiences are in full swing in collaboration with our tremendous health system partners who support student learning in many ways. The Simulation Center continues to be busy, with very specific precautions in place to support student, faculty and staff safety while continuing to support student learning.
鈥淭he Fall 2020 semester has been an experience for us all. While there have been so many challenges for students, faculty and staff, I am constantly in awe of their focus and resilience. Our commitment to developing The Marquette Nurse is strong, and we see their impact each day in clinical settings. The Marquette Nurse is just who we need in today鈥檚 challenging environments. Thank you for all you are doing.鈥�
