Why I Teach at SPU

Virginia Abeyta, Assistant Professor of Nursing

“It is my privilege to teach at SPU to give back to a profession that I have loved ever since I was 6 years old. I will educate the next generation of nurses what is to be a nurse. I believe in the foundation of Christianity, compassion, humility, and empathy which has served me well in my 40 years of nursing service. Also with this humor!”
