      This small collection contains records documenting the professional life Marilyn Jaffe-Ruiz, EdD, RN from her graduation from The Mount Sinai Hospital School of Nursing in 1963 until her retirement from her academic career in 2011. Included here are presentations and publications, mostly relating to Dr. Jaffe-Ruiz' long-term interest in what is today known as cultural diversity, which grew from her work on her doctoral dissertation in 1980: "An Investigation of the Relationship Between Ethnocentrism of Nursing Faculty and Their Attitudes Toward Culturally Different Patients." There are also some artifacts from her years as a student at The Mount Sinai Hospital: a cap, pin and the yearbook for the Class of 1963.
