Bonnie Bartos, Class of 1979, stopped by Henderson Hall and shared how one phone call with Dean Linnea Henderson changed the course of her life.
As a young mother pursuing nursing school, Bonnie found support, flexibility and encouragement at Kent State — support that helped launch a decades-long career in nursing leadership, hospital administration and healthcare technology.
Today, Bonnie continues to give back through the endowed Bartos Henderson Scholarship, helping support future nursing students facing challenges of their own. 💙💛⚡️ #IAmKentNursing #FlashesForever
