Student Nursing
Organization (SNO)
 All
prospective and enrolled nursing students are
members of SNO through OCC Student Life. SNO is
a local chapter of the New
Jersey Nursing Student (NJSN, Inc.) and National
Student Nurse Association (NSNA). Membership
at the national level is voluntary and includes
state membership. SNO follows the NSNA protocols
and policies.
Objectives of SNO include: elevation of personal
and professional standards of nursing students
at OCC; promotion of leadership characteristics
and team work within SNO; and promotion of health
awareness and community service to OCC and the
local community.
The structure of SNO includes seven elected officers
who serve as the SNO executive board along with
elected course level representatives. The Executive
Board serves to:
- Act as a liaison between program committees
and the student.
- Act as the governing body for the SNO.
- Consider and act upon written recommendations
and reports at the scheduled monthly SNO meetings.
- Organize and implement SNO activities.
