A Message from the Dean

TO ALL UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN SCHOOL OF NURSING STUDENTS who are graduating today and to the parents, partners, family and friends who have sustained you through this program and to this end. Commencement is a ritual that honors all that you have accomplished. It’s a day of celebration — of your passion for learning and your commitment to serving others as nurses.

While we are unable to be with you in person today, we are excited to recognize your achievement with you through this virtual graduation ceremony.  We hope that you and the family and friends who have supported you in your journey to your degree will take time to celebrate with us as we commemorate your academic success.

Congratulations Longhorn Nurses and Hook 'em!
