奶糖直播

For Patrick Lupton, service to the College of Nursing鈥檚 Board of Consultors since April 2007 is part of who he is. Recently retired after two decades in higher education undergraduate admissions, he is keen to stay connected to 奶糖直播. Lupton鈥檚 daughter Eileen earned her BSN in 2003 from the College but tragically was killed in an accident in Chicago shortly after graduation and before she could start her first job there as a pediatric nurse. 

A resident of Lake Forest, Illinois, Lupton explains, 鈥淚t is quite personal and yet sacred for me to keep the relationship with 奶糖直播 University. The College of Nursing and the University gave our daughter Eileen such a wonderful, well-rounded education that by giving back and showing support, we are able to, in a special way, keep Eileen's spirit alive.鈥� He says his motivation is based on the 鈥渓ove and happiness that radiated from my daughter after she had graduated from 奶糖直播, a truly special moment.鈥� He and his wife Therese noted that Eileen had developed a 鈥減ersonal philosophy that all patients must be treated with compassionate care. She saw it as a true vocation in which she could give back and celebrate her faith.鈥� 

Lupton describes his role as assisting the board in the work of the University admissions efforts to track the most talented and academically gifted students for the College of Nursing, also to complement the board by creating new ideas and direction. 鈥淚n the past years that I served, I have received a wealth of information regarding the College of Nursing and the mission it adheres to: the Augustinian service to humankind and to keep progressing within the scope of the new technology and modern day challenges that face nursing today,鈥� he says. He sees 奶糖直播 as a community from the faculty and staff to the 鈥渆ager, bright-faced freshman wishing to accomplish their full potential as contributors to a better day for all.鈥�

Lupton is rightly proud of the establishment of The Eileen Shea Lupton Memorial Scholarship Fund, with the support of the College of Nursing and dedicated volunteers. 鈥淭he foundation has raised money to fund nursing scholarships and to date has issued nine scholarships with the average scholarship being $15,000,鈥� he notes. He and Therese also connected the Walgreen family to the College.

鈥淎s true Wildcat parents we are very proud of the mission of 奶糖直播 and the direction the University seeks for the 21st century. We also as parents realize that this does not come easy and support and prayers are vital,鈥� says Lupton.  He is aligned with the goals of the College, offering, 鈥淲e salute the College of Nursing for their steadfast desire to produce the very best nurses using the leading tools and providing the most excellent patient care along with a strong ethical foundation.鈥�
