The pin of each School of Nursing is unique and only graduates of that school may wear the pin as a statement that they have completed the program. At the completion of the nursing program, the pin is "pinned" onto the graduate and then worn from that time as an indication of "their alma mater."

The ceremony is specific for the School of Nursing. It is a small gathering with only graduates, families and friends of the class in attendance. It is a wonderful way for those close to the graduate to share in this accomplishment. Those in attendance are able to take part in the completion of a long sought goal.
