Medical University of South Carolina

 Six rounds of NCIN funding helped the Medical University of South Carolina’s (MUSC) College of Nursing increase awareness about the need for cultural competency and better meet that need. MUSC now has a Multicultural Student Nurses Association, and all of its presidents have been NCIN scholars. The school also has Men in nursing interest group, which many NCIN scholars have been a member of, supported by NCIN scholars. Faculty members are helping create a more inclusive, diverse environment. The NCIN program liaison is leading an active College of Nursing Diversity Committee and serves as the College of Nursing Diversity Officer. MUSC leaders have taken the entire NCIN program to heart and are using its tools to transform the institution’s culture and environment.
