NURSE HONOREE PROGRAM gUIDELINES

OVERVIEW

Consistent with our mission and vision to provide nursing scholarships, the Prairie View Nurses Alumni Chapter holds an annual scholarship event where the proceeds are used for that purpose. We also, at this luncheon, honor nurses who support and preserve the legacy of nursing. These achievers are graduates of Prairie View A&M University, College of Nursing and are loyal, outstanding supporters of nursing and uphold the values, goals, and vision articulated by the Nurses Alumni Chapter. A maximum of four persons who best meet the criteria are selected as honorees. The selected nominees are presented at the scholarship event, given a plaque and pictured in the souvenir booklet with information that depicts their contributions to nursing. The call for nominees will begin within three months of the event.
