91¶ÌÊÓƵ

In October 2018, 91¶ÌÊÓƵ celebrated the naming of the Annie Taylor Dee School of Nursing.

After losing her 20-year-old son, Thomas Reese, in 1894 to a ruptured appendix and her husband, Thomas D. Dee, 11 years later to pneumonia, Annie Taylor Dee resolved to build a hospital for the Ogden community. In 1910, Annie formally presented the Thomas D. Dee Memorial Hospital to the people of Ogden. The facility became a training ground for nurses, and in 1932, aligned its course work with Weber College.

The renaming symbolically brings to full circle Annie’s passionate commitment to nursing education and her family’s time-honored association with the university.
