The University of Cincinnati College of Nursing Case Study

The purpose of this case study is to outline strategies employed by the University of Cincinnati’s College of Nursing (CoN) to increase underrepresented racial and ethnic (URE), and economically and educationally disadvantaged student acceptance, presence, inclusion, and success. The case study method was used to examine strategies used at the CoN to address bias and discrimination, identify student success strategies for URE students, and outline college initiatives to facilitate an inclusive environment. CoN leadership has instituted several programs involving faculty and students in efforts to decrease bias and discrimination and promote inclusion. They continue to engage faculty and others in adding to and improving their efforts. This is a process of culture change and must involve everyone. CoN leadership is committed to both demonstrating by example and holding all accountable for progressively improved continued efforts to create a more inclusive environment
