Purpose of USIANS
The University of Southern Indiana Association of Nursing Students (USIANS) is a local chapter of the Indiana Association of Nursing Students (IANS), which is a state chapter of the National Student Nurses’ Association (NSNA). We are a student organization run by student nurses. Since our chapter is a part of NSNA, we support the NSNA mission which is to:

“organize, represent and mentor students preparing for initial licensure as registered nurses, as well as those enrolled in baccalaureate completion programs; convey the standards and ethics of the nursing profession; promote development of the skills that students will need as responsible and accountable members of the nursing profession; advocate for high quality health care; advocate for and contribute to advances in nursing education; and develop nursing students who are prepared to lead the profession in the future. ”

All nursing students are members of USIANS as the membership dues are included in students' tuition.
