Florida Southern College’s nursing program is getting a lot of financial support. Dr. P. Phillips Foundation donated for the Master of Science in nursing program and for scholarships for graduate nursing students. Dr. Barbara J. Barnum established the H. James Barnum Endowed Scholarship in Nursing in honor of her husband.
Some donations got publicity, such as the $100,000 given by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida toward building the Joe K. and Alberta Blanton Nursing Building. Above mentioned donations never got recognition but still are remembered by all those students who are now studying in university by receiving scholarship.
