St. Edward’s University Nursing Students Honored at Historic White Coat Ceremony
The first-ever cohort of Nursing students at St. Edward’s received their white coats during this milestone celebration — marking a rite of passage as they begin their journey entering clinical patient care and addressing issues of disparity, justice and equity within healthcare.
Family, friends and fellow Hilltoppers came together on Nov. 7, 2024, in the Jones Auditorium to commemorate 10 members of the inaugural cohort — all of whom took a Pledge of Dedication to provide compassionate care and devote themselves to the well-being of all patients.
