Pinning ceremonyThe pinning ceremony, begun in 1943, marks the culmination of a student's undergraduate program of study. During the ceremony, graduates of the program are awarded their School of Nursing pin. The ceremony includes the Passing of the Light ritual, which represents graduates' commitment to the ideals of excellence in nursing practice. For each graduating class, the student with the highest academic standing is designated as Keeper of the Light and becomes its custodian until it is passed along to a member of the following class.[3] RankingsThe Pitt School of Nursing is ranked 8th in the United States overall, according to current rankings published in U.S. News & World Report{{'}}s "Best Graduate Schools".[4] Among the Pitt School of Nursing specialty programs ranked in the report, Nursing-Anesthesia ranked 1st, Psychiatric/Mental Health Clinical Nurse Specialist ranked 6th, pediatric nurse practitioner ranked 6th, and Adult Nurse Practitioner ranked 9th in the United States.

In August 1977, the programs and personnel of the school were brought together in the four-story Victoria Building, also referred to as Victoria Hall, that spans the block of Victoria Street between Lothrop and Darragh streets, adjacent to the main hospitals of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.[7] Designed by the architectural firm of Deeter, Ritchey, & Sippel,[8] construction of the Victoria Building was financed by the General State Authority and the Department of General Services of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
