Who are we?

The Black Student Nurse Association (BSNA) was organized during the 2004-05 academic school year in an effort to increase support of black nursing students at East Carolina University College of Nursing.  The organization addresses the concerns of minority students and faculty within the College of Nursing regarding cultural sensitivity issues and the lack of minority students that successfully finish the BSN program.  BSNA became an official organization active on the campus of East Carolina University within the same year and is lead by many students who are focused on recruiting more minorities into the nursing program at ECU.
