The search for a new UNMC College of Nursing dean continues to move forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve had five outstanding first round candidates visit UNMC since January,\u201d said Kyle Meyer, PhD, chair of the search committee. \u201cThe search committee thanks all of the individuals who met with the candidates and provided feedback to the committee.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the request of the search committee and in collaboration with the chancellor\u2019s office, Lepaine Sharp-McHenry, DNP, is returning to UNMC for a follow-up visit. Dr. Sharp-McHenry is dean and professor of the College of Natural, Behavioral and Health Sciences at Simmons University in Boston.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her return this week will include stops at UNMC nursing divisions in Kearney and Lincoln.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Sharp-McHenry previously served as dean of the Oklahoma Baptist University College of Nursing and assistant director of the Eleanor Mann School of Nursing at the University of Arkansas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Sharp-McHenry\u2019s experience in higher education, nursing practice, regulation and community service has gained her recognition as a transformational leader. She currently serves on the Collegiate Nursing Education Board of Commissioners, the Professional Nurse & Standards Credentialing Committee of the Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools and has served in several roles for the Association of Colleges of Nursing.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is an important search for both the College of Nursing and UNMC,\u201d Dr. Meyer said, adding the search process will continue in earnest until a permanent dean is identified.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
