Abstract

Diversity and inclusion are critical priorities in nursing education programs. Literature has focused on minority student experiences of barriers and supports—but not through a Christian worldview. This qualitative study using a phenomenological-hermenuetic approach gave voice to the experiences of 15 self-identified minority student graduates from a Christian baccalaureate nursing program. Data analysis revealed opportunities for growth in providing a supportive climate within the program and how Christian virtues of hospitality, humility, and reconciliation can be employed to achieve this goal.
