Located in the heart of campus at the corner of College and Main streets, Westlawn Hall normally houses students and the college’s dining hall. But this week, construction crews moved in as Goshen College broke ground on a massive renovation project that college leaders say will bring their nursing program into the 21st century.
The Community Foundation of Elkhart County has awarded Goshen College a $1 million grant to invest in the renovation of Westlawn Hall for a new nursing and public health teaching facility.
The program is known for its true educational excellence at all levels, and it focuses strongly on cultural diversity in nursing care, something that makes the program quite unique.
Professor Emerita of Nursing Anna Frances “Fran” Wenger, 79, died on Feb. 2, 2013 in Goshen after a four-month battle with cancer.
