UMHB Receives Grant To Expand Nursing School Programs
(May 3, 2006)—A $87,100 grant from the Sid Richardson Foundation will help the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor expand programs in the university’s Scott & White College of Nursing.
In response to an acute nursing shortage in Texas, the foundation began working with UMHB in 2001 to increase the number of students in the program.
Over four years, UMHB doubled the size of the graduating class of the nursing program and the number of students enrolling has increased 75 percent.
