Penn State’s Board of Trustees
voted on Thursday to rename the university’s College of Nursing after a Pennsylvania couple donated $27 million to the school.
Effective immediately, the school will be known as “The Ross & Carol Nese College of Nursing.”
The Neses’ $27.125 million gift is the college’s largest donation and second largest to an academic unit in Penn State’s history, according to the university. Their donation will be coupled with $17.9 million in matching funds from Penn State, providing a combination of endowed and outright funding for scholarships, faculty and program support, and facilities and equipment.
“Penn State is deeply grateful to Ross and Carol for their remarkably generous and timely gift,” Penn State President Eric Barron
