School of Nursing Celebrates Conway’s Legacy
taught, the students she mentored, and
the nursing program she developed.
More than 30 years of nursing graduates
have learned from Conway’s experience
and passion. “She poured her life’s
ministry into the School and the students,
knowing her ministry would reach
forward,” said Dr. Carrie Keib, Acting
Dean of the School of Nursing.
Keib will temporarily fill this role
while the search for a permanent dean
is underway. But Keib sees this year of
transition as an opportunity to build
on Conway’s legacy of excellence and
dedication by continuing to strengthen
the School and its programs.
The School of Nursing held a retirement
celebration for Conway during the
University’s homecoming weekend.

After 31 years of exceptional
service, Dr. Janet Conway,
Dean of the School of
Nursing, has announced
her retirement.
Since 1982, Conway’s
vision has guided the School
of Nursing. As a key member
of the original nursing
faculty, Conway helped
build the program from
the ground up. She played a
critical role in developing the
School’s first curriculum and
used her expertise to make
updates throughout the
years. Conway also taught
multiple nursing courses
throughout her tenure.
Named Chair of the Department of
Nursing in 2007, Conway had a vision
to create a Master of Science in Nursing
(M.S.N.) program. Cedarville’s M.S.N.
was launched in 2011 and received
accreditation in October 2012. The
Department of Nursing then became the
School of Nursing, with Conway leading
as dean.
Conway holds a doctorate in nursing
from the University of Texas and earned
a Specialist in Clinical Nursing certificate
from Indiana University.
Looking back on her career, Conway
acknowledges God’s providence in her
life. “I am so blessed to have been allowed
to serve the Lord in my ‘dream career’ of
teaching nursing at a Christian university,”
she said.
Her dedication to excellence impacted
Cedarville through the courses she
