This paper gives some sufficient conditions for a compact submanifold with nonnegative sectional curvature in a space form to be totally umbilical. In particular, for a compact submanifold M with flat normal bundle, if the scalar curvature is proportional to the mean curvature everywhere, then M is totally umbilical or the Riemannian product of totally umbilical submanifolds of constant curvature.
