A message from the Alumni Association President
Welcome, alumni and friends of the Upstate College of Nursing!
It is a privilege to serve as the president of our Nursing Alumni Association. As a proud alumna, I know firsthand the dedication it takes to pursue a nursing career, and I am inspired daily by our community’s commitment to the health and well-being of others. During my two-year term, I am focused on bolstering scholarship funding to support future generations of nurses, particularly through admissions scholarships to attract more students to our college. I’m also excited to foster new networking opportunities for our alumni, strengthen the connection between alumni and the college, and create valuable professional development for our students, alumni, and faculty alike.
Our mission is simple but vital: to enhance educational excellence at the Upstate College of Nursing, support the growth of nursing professionals, and make a meaningful impact on the health of our community. We do this through scholarships, continuing education events, and support for professional enrichment across our college community. My hope is to ensure the long-term sustainability of our association, so we can continue providing the resources and financial support that our students and alumni need to thrive.
To all alumni, thank you for your unwavering support and dedication to our shared mission. Together, we are shaping the future of nursing and creating a lasting legacy for the next generation.
Warm regards,

Zoe Gonza
President
Upstate College of Nursing Alumni Association
