“The faculty, staff, and leadership of the registered nursing program and the licensed practical nursing program are delighted to celebrate this significant milestone with our graduates,” said Dr. Scott Dolan, dean of health, human and public services at Clark State. “This is the culmination of several semesters of hard work and dedication to studies and clinicals. The pinning ceremony marks the completion of the graduate’s student career and welcomes them to the sisterhood/brotherhood of professional nursing. As well these students represent the future of professional nursing and healthcare in the Clark and Greene County region.”
