Letter from the Dean

Dear Class of 2025,

Congratulations on reaching this incredible milestone! On behalf of the faculty and staff of the Loyola University Chicago Marcella Niehoff School of Nursing, we celebrate your hard work and dedication. As you begin your journey—whether in clinical practice, leadership, research, or advanced practice—your Loyola degree will serve you well. Now, more than ever, nurses must use their voices and expertise to foster a culture of health and equity for all. Learning is a lifelong pursuit, and we encourage you to embrace it with passion and purpose. You are called to go forth and set the world on fire! We look forward to celebrating with you in May at Commencement.
