🤍🩺 A new chapter begins for our future nurses.
On August 28, University of Miami School of Nursing & Health Studies students celebrated an important milestone at the Fall 2026 White Coat Ceremony—marking their transition from the classroom and simulation lab into the clinical setting.
Welcomed by Dean Hudson Santos and surrounded by faculty, family, and friends, our students received their white coats and recited the Ibis Nursing Pledge, affirming their commitment to compassion, dignity, ethical practice, lifelong learning, health equity, and service.
As Dean Santos reminded them, the true meaning of the white coat isn’t found in the fabric—it is defined by the kindness they show, the dignity they extend, the courage they demonstrate, and their commitment to improving the lives of others.
To our future Canes Nurses: trust your preparation, stay curious, support one another, and embrace this next chapter. Your journey into nursing starts here. 🧡💚
Congratulations to the Class of 2026! 👏🩺
