Recently I was reading the news and came across this article - Salisbury University is intentionally restructuring so that their schools of Nursing, Social Work and Health Sciences will become the College of Health and Human Services. What an incredible forward thinking idea of bringing this trio of complimentary areas of study under a shared mission / vision!
Here is a bit more - a link to the article is at the bottom of this blog.
Salisbury University announced a large strategic restructuring this Tuesday headlined by the unveiling of the school’s newest college, the College of Health and Human Services (CHHS).
The move solved a long need for common ground between similar departments that had since been separated within different schools.
“We have been working on this for probably three to four years,” Interim Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs Dr. Karen Olmstead said. “It started out as a conversation about athletic training in particular needed to be in a department of health sciences.”
Approved by the University System of Maryland Board of Regents, the new college will house three different schools: Nursing, Social Work and Health Sciences.
