Student Organizations
Penn Nursing is composed of a vibrant community of scholars who join together to do good while having fun. There are a number of student group, both at the School and throughout the wider campus, that devote themselves to persons of color and members of underrepresented groups.
The Minorities in Nursing Organization (MNO) was created to promote cultural awareness in the medial community. Founded in 2001, MNO seeks to create a forum for discussion about culture and its importance to nursing practice and remains committed to community service and providing social and academic support to members. Regardless of age, race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation, MNO is an organization that is open to everyone.
