A $10,000 donation from Gary and Marcia Nelson enabled CSU Stanislaus to start a new Masters of Science in Nursing. This spring, 14 nurses began this program which offers two tracks: Nursing Education and Gerontological Nursing.
Graduates will have the skills to become administrators and policy planners who work with the growing elderly populations, and be able to teach at both the college level and in staff development roles within various health care organizations. The Nelsons are owners and operators of Nelson, which includes Nelson Staffing, Nelson and Associates, and Nelson Technology. Their generosity will serve the Valley for generations to come. |
