"Done well, simulation doesn't just teach skills. It shapes safer, more thoughtful clinicians," said Dr. Fogg, an associate professor and assistant dean at the Texas Woman's University College of Nursing.

Bryn Mawr College has renamed its master of social services degree to a master of social work degree. The name change aims to better align the degree with standard terminology used in the social work profession.

The new provosts are Kim Whitehead at Mississippi University for Women, Preselfannie E. Whitfield McDaniels at Jackson State University in Mississippi, Caroline R. Sherman at McDaniel College in Maryland, Tywana Chenault Hemby at Paine College in Georgia, and LaToya Mason at Lake Michigan College.
