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

I always tell students to never take a day off from learning, and also that sometimes it’s okay to be just a little bit selfish – with your time, with your resources – they can be unselfish later, after graduation, when they are taking care of patients and saving the world.
