$2.5 million renovation completed for Nursing Department

A major renovation and expansion is complete on the nursing facility used by students at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University.

Located on the fourth floor of the Main Building at CSB, the area was designed long before sweeping changes came to the medical field, in terms of both pedagogy and technology.

"This renovation finally allows us to create a simulated learning space that is up-to-date," explained Carie Braun, professor of nursing.

The $2.5 million renovation, which will open for the start of spring semester, will be known as the Schoenecker Nursing Education Center, in recognition of the generous lead gift from Guy and Barbara Schoenecker.
