FNSNA Appoints New Trustees The FNSNA Board of Trustees is the governing body of the Foundation of the National Student Nurses ’ Association , Inc ( FNSNA ). Trustees who serve have expertise within and without the nursing profession . From time-to-time vacancies occur as Trustees complete their terms of service to the organization . Last summer , the FNSNA Board of Trustees was faced with three vacancies .
On October 28 , 2021 , in accordance with organization bylaws , the members of the FNSNA met to consider and appoint candidates to fill board vacancies . The members unanimously voted to appoint Sandra Gomberg , DNP , RN to serve as Vice President and Major General George A . Alexander , MD , and Ms . Barbara Ward , MPA , BSN to serve as Trustees .
For Dr . Gomberg , nursing leadership has been a natural progression . Her connection to the National Student Nurses ’ Association , Inc ( NSNA ) began while pursuing her Bachelor of Science in Nursing ( 1985 ) degree and master ’ s degree in Nursing Administration ( 1990 ) at Villanova University . It was through her involvement with the Villanova chapter of the Student Nurses ’ Association of Pennsylvania ( SNAP ) that she began her leadership journey . Her early involvement in leadership laid a strong foundation for her future nursing career .
