Today, the College of Nursing remembers beloved graduate and nurse colleague Jana Clement Flynn on her first birthday (Aug. 30) since her passing earlier this year. Jana held BSN and MSN degrees from ETSU and worked as a family nurse practitioner. She died on April 30 following a battle with ALS. The College of Nursing is deeply proud to announce the creation of the Jana Clement Flynn Memorial Nursing Scholarship, which will support students at Jana's alma mater who are following in her footsteps to become a nurse. The scholarship was established by Jana's friends and family.

This year, we are launching our first-ever White Coat Campaign to support current nursing students as they receive their white coat, a meaningful moment on their journey to becoming a nurse.

We are asking our alumni to support our White Coat ceremonies by sponsoring a student and writing a note of encouragement that will be included in their white coat pocket. Hearing from people who have made it through nursing school and are in their nursing careers or beyond will provide our students with hope, encouragement, and inspiration to continue striving towards their goals!
