The School of Nursing is an integral unit of Hampton University and shares its goals and

ideals of excellence in the teaching-living-learning process. Nursing education at Hampton

University began with the Hampton Training School for Nurses in 1891. At the turn of the

century, Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute and Dixie Hospital (now Sentara

CarePlex) partnered to offer premier nursing education and health care for Peninsula

residents. Since 1944, the nursing faculty at Hampton University has provided high-quality

professional nursing education at the bachelor of science degree level. This undergraduate

program has the distinction of being the oldest baccalaureate nursing program in the

Commonwealth. In 1976, Hampton University instituted a master of science degree program

in nursing, making Hampton the first historically black college and university (HBCU) to

offer a master’s degree in nursing. In 1999, the School of Nursing achieved another

distinction when Hampton University instituted a PhD nursing program, the first at a HBCU.

The Center for Minority Family Health serves as the research arm of the School of Nursing.

The School of Nursing is approved by the Virginia Board of Nursing and is fully accredited

by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission and the Commission on

Collegiate Nursing Education.

School of Nursing HAMPTON UNIVERSITY

Each new graduate is eligible to receive the Hampton University School of Nursing pin, which symbolizes the transition from student to nurse.

The School of Nursing’s pin is a representation of the middle

of the Hampton University seal. The official seal was

accepted in 1875 and only the name has changed as Hampton

has evolved from the Hampton Normal and Agricultural

Institute to Hampton Institute to Hampton University.

The symbols on the seal and the pin are a plow and sheaths of

grain; books of knowledge surmounted by a globe of the

world; a Bible stand; and, an old-fashioned printing press.

The sunrise over Hampton Creek symbolizes the rise of

educational opportunities, and the boat on the water

symbolizes the principal medium of transportation to

Hampton during its early history.

Whether you pursue a career in public service, private industry, or academe, I know you will make a difference.

It has been a privilege and a pleasure to host you during your

ductive. As members of the distinguished School of Nursing alumni, you will always be cherished here at Hampton University. I hope you will proudly wear your pin that identifies you as one who has been educated to

Phyllis D. Morgan graduated with a PhD in nursing from Hampton Uni-

versity in May 2002 and became the first student to receive a PhD in

nursing from a Historically Black College and/or University. Dr. Morgan

also received her master’s of science in nursing from Hampton Univer-

sity and a bachelor’s of science in nursing from Florida State University.

Dr. Morgan completed a post-doctoral fellowship in health disparities

research at Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing.

Dr. Morgan has been a core faculty member at Walden University

School of Nursing since May 2010, where she serves as a lead faculty

member, course developer, and faculty mentor for the nursing program.

Dr. Morgan was former chair and associate professor at the Fayetteville

State University Department of Nursing (FSU-DON). Under her leader-

ship, NCLEX-RN board scores increased from 39% to 88%.

Dr. Morgan is certified through the American Nurses Credentialing Cen-

ter and American Academy of Nurse Practitioners as a family nurse practitioner (FNP). Since 1998, she has

practiced as a nurse practitioner in clinical areas, such as college health, women’s health, indigent care, pri-

mary care, and military health care. Currently, Dr. Morgan practices part-time as a FNP for CVS Caremark

Minute Clinic stores in Northern Virginia.

For the past several years, Dr. Morgan has worked as a nurse educator, researcher, and clinician. She has

been published in several peer-reviewed journals and presented at national conferences. Dr. Morgan serves as

a fellow of the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (FAANP) and member of the American Academy

of Nurse Practitioners, Association of Black Nursing Faculty, Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society,

and Chi Eta Phi.

Dr. Morgan’s areas of research are African American women’s breast cancer treatment, African American

couples coping with breast cancer, and African Americans and colorectal cancer. She has served as a disserta-

tion committee member for three African American female PhD students whose research focused on African

Americans and colorectal cancer, college-age women and cervical cancer, and African Americans with HIV/

AIDS.

Dr. Morgan is passionate about helping others and working to improve health disparities among vulnerable

and underserved populations. Her latest research resulted in a $250,000 grant awarded by the Centers for

Medicare & Medicaid Services to implement a faith-based culturally appropriate colorectal cancer educa-

tional intervention for African Americans. This project increased colorectal cancer knowledge, decreased

cancer fatalism, and increased screening for colorectal cancer among African Americans in the southeastern

United States.

Dr. Morgan is an active member of the First Mount Zion Baptist Church Health Ministry in Dumfries, Vir-

ginia. She is a first aid volunteer for the Brownie Girl Scout Troop at Christ Chapel Academy in Woodbridge,

Virginia, and a health ministry volunteer for God’s Ladies of Significance and Service (G.L.O.S.S.), Wood-

bridge chapter. Dr. Morgan is married to Colonel Conrado B. Morgan, United States Army, and is the proud

mother of seven-year-old Cayla. She is a woman of faith and trusts God in every aspect of her life.
