The Marion Peckham Egan School of Nursing and Health Studies Advisory Board formally began its work in the spring of 2005 when two grants were awarded to the Egan School — one to launch the Board and the second to establish an annual lecture series.

Board members consist of an array of distinguished professionals with interests in healthcare and nursing.‌
