WELCOME TO NU XI AT-LARGE CHAPTER 
A chapter within Region One of Sigma, Nu Xi at-Large Chapter was chartered in 1992 and is affiliated with three university schools of nursing in the San Francisco East Bay Area: California State University East Bay, Holy Names University, and Samuel Merritt University. Celebrating its 25th Anniversary in 2017-18, Nu Xi at-Large took the bold step of incorporating as a 501c3 not-for-profit corporation in California on November 15, 2017. In recognition of its efforts to engage members and to collaborate with other Sigma Chapters, Nu Xi received its 11th Chapter Key Award in November 2023.

Your donations will help us meet these three goals.

Scholarship Recipients
Recent CSUEB scholarship recipients are Haly Lewis (Concord campus, graduating Spring 2024) and Pratibha Sunder (Hayward campus, graduating Fall 2023).
Haly Lewis is a first-generation college student, she received her associate’s degree from Los Medanos College and is now in her 4th semester of nursing school. She is an active student leader and Vice President of the East Bay Student Nurses Association (EBSNA). Becoming a nurse has always been a lifelong dream of hers, she began her journey in the healthcare field as a CNA at the age of 17 in Washington state, after 10 years she obtained acceptance into the nursing program at Cal State East Bay Concord Campus, since then she has worked closely with her fellow classmates and faculty to integrate herself into the CSUEB nursing community. Her future aspirations are to become a Trauma ICU nurse.
Pratibha Sunder says: I am honored to become a Sigma member. I'm from the Bay Area, California and I’ll be graduating from CSU East Bay, Hayward with my BSN in December of 2023. From a young age I always knew I wanted to build a life that revolves around caring for others. My passion grew as I assisted nurses with patient care, Rapid Response and Code Blue emergencies as an inpatient pharmacy technician since the age of 18. I chose nursing as a career because I hope to empower my community and promote positivity in a world where we always need more empathy and kindness. I am most passionate about Pediatric Critical Care and I hope to help families heal and grow stronger. I’m committed to lifelong learning and am so excited to grow my nursing career; this is only the beginning!
Continuing Education Webinars:
Nu Xi is continuing its longstanding collaboration with Omicron Delta and Phi Gamma Chapters of Sigma and Our Lady of Fatima University to serve the members of Sigma, particularly members of the sponsoring organizations by providing continuing education/professional development virtual programs offered via Zoom to enhance the professional education and competence of Sigma members.
In order to expand the benefits of the collaboration, a more permanent repository of recorded programs allowing access for up to two years has been developed. Sigma members can view the recordings and submit evaluations for credit without cost by visiting https://bit.ly/CEArchivePortal. The programs are updated so that the most recent 2 years of programming is available at any given time.
