Description
The Jeanette C. Rudy School of Nursing demonstrates commitment to excellence in the profession of nursing. This success - and the dream behind it - started with the interest and generosity of the University's many friends. University Medical Center generously provided an area for the Learning Resource Laboratory, major educational equipment, and supplies needed for nursing skills simulation. Many other facilities and organizations in the Middle Tennessee area contributed seed money, student scholarship money, or equipment/supplies to enable Cumberland to meet the needs of the Middle Tennessee area for well-prepared nurses. In 2004, the school's name was changed to the Jeanette C. Rudy School of Nursing in honor of Dr. Jeanette Cantrell Rudy, a retired nurse and longtime friend and benefactor of Cumberland University.
