Debra Decker Joins Nursing Honor Society

2013 May 22

Debra Decker, a resident of Muncie, IL, was among 26 students recently recognized as a new member of the Lakeview College of Nursing Honor Society.

Decker is a 1990 graduate of Oakwood High School, Fithian, IL. She is the daughter of Donald and Sharon Powell of Oakwood, IL and is married to Doug Decker of Muncie, IL.

In order to be considered for the Lakeview College of Nursing Honor Society each student was required to be within the top 1/3 of their graduating class, hold a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or better, and demonstrate leadership and service through their activities.

Lakeview College of Nursing officials say that in the future they plan to establish a chapter of Sigma Theta Tau, a prestigious international nursing honor society. Membership in the College's own honor society is an important step toward this goal.

Lakeview College of Nursing offers a bachelor of science in nursing degree. It is a single-purpose, private institution that has specialized in nursing education in the Danville, IL area since 1894. Lakeview began offering a cooperative program with Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, IL, in the fall of 2001.
