Together they recognized a critical need to identify and provide strategies to encourage enrollment, promote retention, and develop leadership skills within the Hispanic student group. The CTL Program also recognizes the importance of family and community in the Hispanic culture as a significant strength which can be built upon to provide assistance in overcoming these challenges. It is believed that building partnerships between the student, the family, community role models and the school of nursing will promote the successful development of the Hispanic student as a professional nurse. Most programs are presented in an informal lunch-time setting where students have the opportunity to socialize and share their Nursing School experiences in a friendly supportive environment. Activities are announced in classes and via e-mail and are posted on the School of Nursing calendar, bulletin boards, and the web site.
Lunch is provided.
We invite you to be part of the tradition of the Challenge to Leadership Program. It is a privilege and pleasure to work with this group of students and see them make lasting friendships and develop into successful professional nurses. Come join us in celebrating your Hispanic heritage while developing your academic and leadership potential in nursing. If you experience any difficulties with this page, please contact the webmaster .
