Nursing Prof. Lorraine Noll 'connected' with far-flung students
Word has been received of the death of Lorraine Noll, associate professor emerita of nursing, best known for her we'll-come-to-you outreach that brought nursing instruction to far-flung outposts across Northern Wisconsin. She died Thursday at age 75 at a Two Rivers hospital. In 1986, she led establishment of UW-Green Bay satellite sites at Howard Young Medical Center in Woodruff and Nicolet Community College in Rhinelander so holders of R.N. diplomas could pursue bachelor's degrees. In the days before web-based instruction, she made the near-200-mile drive from her Manitowoc-area home in all seasons so dozens of students with busy lives and young families didn't have to. For that, she received the Founders Association Award for Excellence in Community Outreach in 1993, as well as an award from her national association. "From Fond du Lac to Sturgeon Bay and Shawano to Hurley," the Founders citation read, "she was instrumental in extending the UW-Green Bay Professional Nursing Program." Noll also served in leadership positions with state and national nursing associations. She retired from the University in 2000 after 17 years of service. A complete obituary will be announced Saturday. The Klein & Stangel Funeral Home of Two Rivers is assisting the family.
