MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN<br />
It is with great excitement and enthusiasm that I begin this school year as the new dean of Oakland’s School of Nursing. Having<br />
worked with the SON on the development of the Doctor of Nursing Practice degree program, I am well aware of the stellar reputation<br />
of the school, the highly committed and experienced faculty, and the impressive professional and personal attributes of the students<br />
