BSN 50-year Anniversary

Save the dates of Friday, September 26, through Sunday, September 28, and join fellow alumni on campus for a weekend celebrating the 50-year anniversary of Creighton University's first BSN graduating class!

All nursing alumni are invited to participate in this fun-filled weekend, celebrating the 50-years of exceptional service to others with generations of Creighton nurses.

You may want to participate in a continuing educational program and an alumni tailgate on Friday, or take in an outdoor concert at the Hilltop Jam, attend the Anniversary Luncheon on Saturday, and stay for a special blessing of nurses at the St. John’s Mass on Sunday morning.

More information will be sent from the School of Nursing to all alumni this summer. We hope you’ll return to campus and celebrate with us! Please contact Joyce Bunger, Assistant Dean, at (402) 280-2029 for more information.
