  • Seeking Social Justice

    All around Penn Nursing, students are volunteering, teaching, organizing, and conducting research with one shared goal: to make the world a fairer place.

  • Nursing Students Engage

    You’ll find them inside senior centers and on the sidelines of kids’ sports practices.
    They’re at free COVID-19 testing sites and packing meals inside local nonprofits. You can spot them presenting legislative resolutions and chatting with marginalized populations about their greatest needs. Just as they have since the school’s earliest days, Penn Nursing students are consistently bringing their skills out of the classroom and into local communities, while learning more about those communities in the process. Whether they choose service-focused classes, student clubs, paid work, or volunteer opportunities, Penn Nursing students today are more tapped into the city around them than ever before. Here’s what that engagement looks like for nine current undergrads.
