WIN Emeriti
BACKGROUND
The Western Council on Higher Education for Nursing (WCHEN) established the honorary designation of “Emeriti” in 1984. WIN has continued this honorary designation to recognize retired nurses or other individuals who have demonstrated distinguished service to WIN or to its predecessor, WCHEN. Examples of distinguished service include serving on the Board, committees, task forces, and advisory committees; encouraging participation in the organization; providing support for the development or implementation of projects; contributing to the profession of nursing that directly or indirectly promoted the achievement of WIN/WCHEN’s mission and goals; and/or serving as a staff member.
