The newest addition to the Kansas Wesleyan University campus, the Nursing Education Center, will be dedicated Friday with a special virtual ceremony.
The event will get under way at 3:30 p.m., and can be viewed at http://portal.stretchinternet.com/kwu.
KWU administration and faculty will speak briefly, along with the President of Salina Regional Health Center, Joel Phelps. The video presentation will include an in-depth tour of the facility, the first such tour available to members of the general public.
The Kansas Wesleyan University Nursing Education Center is the first new, on-campus building dedicated solely to academics in over 50 years. The $5 million facility has been named a Center of Excellence by Laerdal, makers of Nursing simulation equipment, and it provides the latest technology throughout.
Classes began in the new facility Jan. 12.
