Across generations

On Loyola Nursing’s 90th anniversary, two graduates and one student reflect on their nursing journeys

Nearly 14,000 students have graduated from the Marcella Niehoff School of Nursing since its founding in 1935, following the unification of nursing schools from six Chicago-area Catholic hospitals. Inspired by Loyola’s Ignatian values, our nurses have gone on to careers across the spectrum of health care, including clinical practice, research, management, academia, informatics, and public health.
