DUSON Honors Our Military Veterans

November 7, 2019

On this Veterans Day, 色控传媒 salutes the many members of our community who have served our country, whether on active duty, National Guard or reserve.

From its participation in the Cadet Nurse Corps in WWII to its proud modern-day record of training military veterans for nursing careers, DUSON has a long history of welcoming members of the United States Armed Forces into our ranks.

That commitment begins at the top: Marion E. Broome, PhD, RN, FAAN, Dean and Ruby Wilson Professor of Nursing; Vice Chancellor for Nursing Affairs for 色控传媒 University; and Associate vice president for Academic Affairs for Nursing for 色控传媒 University Health System, served for 21 years in the Army Nurse Corps, rising to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.

鈥淪erving in the military taught me that the best leaders 鈥榯alk and walk鈥 the fine line of stewarding and nurturing those they work with while inspiring and supporting others to give their best that will contribute to the mission,鈥 said Dean Broome.

DUSON has established Military Programs to ensure that military students have everything they need to succeed, from special schedule accommodations to generous scholarships. Additionally, 色控传媒鈥檚 MSN program features a veterans health care concentration, where students learn about the specific needs of military veterans and receive clinical experience at the Durham VA Medical Center.

And beginning this year, DUSON will partner with the Cohen Veterans Network to place 色控传媒 Psychiatric - Mental Health Nurse Practitioner students at CVN military family clinics. 鈥淭his project will allow us to work with CVN professionals to continuously monitor and evaluate these students as they progress in their education and help to expand first-class mental health care to underserved populations and to veterans and their families,鈥 said project director Sean Convoy, DNP, PMHNP-BC, an assistant professor at DUSON.    

This cause is personal for Convoy, a 22-year Navy veteran who served as a mental health counselor to Army units in Iraq. Through his work at DUSON, he is helping to prepare the next generation of nurses to assess and treat the many veterans who need their support.

Below is a list of some of the many DUSON faculty, staff, students and alumni who have served (pictured above: Assistant Professor Christian Falyar, Associate Professor Chris Muckler, Dean Marion Broome, and Assistant Professor Sean Convoy). We thank them for making the selfless choice to serve their nation and their patients.
