Congratulations, Denise Langley

Denise Langley is a 1990 graduate of OIT's Nursing program. In her era, OIT had its own Nursing degree, but things have changed since then. All Nursing programs at Oregon University System schools now are administered by Oregon Health & Science University.

In fact, OHSU's Nursing program will move into the Martha Anne Dow Center for Health Professions' second wing. The program will then be able to admit more Nursing students. It's a great partnership between OIT and OHSU.

Any way, back to Denise. She was nominated by OHSU, the hospital in Portland not the local Nursing program, staff and faculty as the Emergency Department Nurse of the Year. She was lauded as an exemplary nurse, educator and leader. Denise is a wonderful human being who has dedicated her life to helping others, specifically in the area of pediatrics.

OIT alumni are doing wonderful things, and everyone is proud of Denise.
