The Diamond Jubilee of Cadet Nurses in Arizona: Stories of Service

This Road Scholars presentation outlined the history of nurse education in Arizona from the early 1900s through World War II and beyond in Arizona. Approximately 15 participants engaged in lively discussion about Cadet Nurses and the role the U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps program played in making this educational opportunity accessible to many young women who might not have pursued this pathway without this financial support.
