Clarkson College has not always been a college. Instead, we began in 1888 as a school of nursing—the first in the state of Nebraska. Over the last 125 years, we've established a new campus, expanded our program offerings and adopted a new name. All the while, we've maintained a commitment to preparing our students to be the best in various realms of health care. This commitment to excellence has and always will remain a defining quality of Clarkson College.

Words of Wisdom

Nelson Mandela said that "Education is the most powerful tool you can use to change the world." Education is a journey that will impact your life, the lives in your community, and potentially reach lives beyond it. My wish is to inspire wonder in my students, colleagues, and community as we together promote an inclusive, educated, and caring society.
