Marilyn Hau, Bachelor of Science in Nursing, 1989

Marilyn Hau of Avon Park, Florida, earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree in 1989. She shares, “I had to work as a diploma RN to pay for my BSN from Regents – although not accredited yet, it was the only option that long ago. Thank you for what turned out to be the best decision of my life. I moved into occupational health nursing, then got my master’s in Environmental Health and Safety Management from the University of Findlay, Ohio. After independent consulting and a corporate safety manager position, I was appointed the EHS director at the University of Illinois at Chicago with a six-figure salary. I retired from that position with an excellent retirement annuity income. I am now a millionaire, and it all started with that rare and precious opportunity to obtain my BS degree through the Regents College Degree Program. AND I learned a lot through those courses! Thank you!”
