Personal Commentary
I have thoroughly enjoyed my time and relationships while at SJSU over the last 42 years in the SJSU School of Nursing, now The Valley Foundation School of Nursing. I am very grateful for the wonderful students, faculty, staff, and friends that I have had the pleasure of working with over all these years. The nursing profession is a vital part of our community, and can continue to serve the community well with dedicated faculty and staff.
GO SPARTANS!
