GIVING
Helping Students During COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has made us all appreciate our healthcare workers more than ever before. USI College of Nursing and Health Professions students are challenged to be leaders during this time.
Charissa Schultz '21 said she was nervous about returning to school as an adult, especially during these uncertain times. However, she can confidently say she made the right decision choosing USI because of the unique opportunities and support provided to students.
"I received invaluable hands-on nursing experience and developed relationships with faculty and other exceptional students," she said. "Although the pandemic presented several obstacles, the University at large, the College of Nursing and Health Professions faculty and even our own student networks were creative to guarantee all educational needs are being met."
When you invest in the education of students like Charissa, your gift can be the added confidence they need to thrive and lead boldly. Make a gift.
