UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
GENERAL INFORMATION
The University of Maryland School of Nursing was established in the year 1889. Since that time it has been an integral part of the Uni- versity of Maryland, coming under the same government.
The school is non-sectarian, the only religious services being morning prayers.
The University of Maryland Hospital is a general hospital containing 435 adult beds and 70 bassinets. It is equipped to give young women a thorough course of instruction and practice in all phases of nursing.
PROGRAMS OFFERED: The program of study of the school is planned for two groups of students: (a) the three-year group and (b) the five- year group.
The three-year program is designed to meet the requirements for the Diploma in Nursing, and comprises the work of the first, second, and third hospital years. The requirements for admission to the five-year program of the School of Nursing are the same as for other colleges. (A special catalog will be sent upon request of the Registrar, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland.)
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION: A candidate for admission to the School of Nursing must be a graduate of an accredited high school or other recognized preparatory school, and must present evidence that she has completed satisfactorily the required amount of preparatory study. Preference will be given to students who rank in the upper third of the graduating class in their preparatory schools.
Candidates are required to present 16 units for entrance.
Required: English (I, II, III, IV), 4 units; mathematics, 2 units; his- tory, 1 unit; science, 2 units; foreign language, 1 unit (preferred).
Elective: Fine Arts, trade and vocational subjects are acceptable.
In addition to these requirements, students must meet other definite requirements in regard to health, age, and personal fitness for nursing work.
The preferable age for students registered for the three-year course is 20 to 35 years, although students may be accepted at the age of 18. Women of superior education and culture are given preference, pro- vided they meet the requirements in other particulars. A personal inter- view with the Director of the School is required whenever possible.
Application forms may be secured from the Director of the School of Nursing, University of Maryland, Baltimore 1, Maryland.
REGISTRATION WITH MARYLAND STATE BOARD OF EXAMIN- ERS OF NURSES: The Maryland State Board of Examiners of Nurses requires all students entering schools of nursing in Maryland to register at the beginning of their course with the Board in order to be eligible to examination and license on completion of this course. This registra- tion is accomplished after the applicant has been accepted into the School of Nursing.
The fitness of the applicant for the work and the propriety of dis- missing or retaining her at the end of her term of probation are left to the decision of the Director of the School. Misconduct, disobedience, insubordination, inefficiency, and neglect of duty are causes for dismissal.
ADMISSION TO THE SCHOOL: Students accepted for the spring term are admitted in March, and those for the fall term in September. Admis- sion to the five-year course occurs in September.
HOURS OF DUTY: During the probation period the students are engaged in class work for the first six months with supervised prac- tice in the hospital. For the remainder of their period of training they are on a forty-eight hour weekly schedule. The period of night duty is approximately five to six months during the three years.
SCHOOL OF NURSING
The first four months of the probation period are devoted to theoret- ical and practical instruction given entirely in the lecture and demon- stration rooms of the training school, hospital, and medical school labora- tories. During the last two months of the probation period the students are placed on duty in the hospital wards for instruction in bedside nursing, and are expected to perform the duties assigned to them by the Director of the School. At the close of the first semester the students are required to pass satisfactorily both the written and practical tests, attaining a grade of 75%. Failure to meet this requirement will be suffi- cient reason to request the withdrawal of the student from the school.
SICKNESS: A physician is in attendance each day. Ill students are cared for gratuitously. The time lost through illness in excess of two weeks, during the three years, must be made up. Should the authorities of the school decide that because of time lost the theoretical work has not been sufficiently covered to permit a student to continue in any year, it will be necessary for her to continue her work with the next class.
VACATIONS: Vacations are given between May and October. A period of four weeks is allowed during each of the first and second years, and ten days during the third year.
EXPENSES: A fee of $50.00, payable on entrance, to be applied against :he cost of uniforms after the probation period is required from all students; plus student activity fee of $5.00. Each student receives her board, lodging, and a reasonable amount of laundry from the date of entrance. During her probation period she provides her own uniforms and shoes at a cost of approximately $55.00. After the probation period all uniforms and shoes are supplied by the hospital. Books are furnished at the expense of the student. Her personal expenses during the course of training and instruction will depend entirely upon her individual habits and tastes.
GRADUATION: The Diploma in Nursing will be awarded to those who have satisfactorily completed the full term of three years, and have successfully passed the final examinations.
SCHOLARSHIP: The Janet Hale Memorial Scholarship of $250.00 given by the University of Maryland Nurses' Alumnae Association, is awarded to the student having the highest record in scholarship to pursue a course in administration, supervisory, or public health work at Teachers College, Columbia University, New York.
AWARDS: There are two awards of $50.00 each known as the Edwin and Leander M. Zimmerman, and the Elizabeth Collins Lee prizes. The Woman's Auxiliary Board of the University of Mai viand presents the Alumnae Pin and a one year membership in the Association, for prac- tical nursing and executive ability. An award of $25.00 is given by Mrs. John L. Whitehurst for the highest average in executive ability. The Mary K. Waltham prize of $25.00 is awarded to the nurse who shows the most human understanding in the attention given to the pa- tients on the wards.

Clinical Teaching
10 UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
PROGRAM OF STUDY
The present School of Nursing offers a program of study, instituted in 1924, to two groups: to those who desire to complete their work in approxi- mately thirty-six months, and to those who desire the five year combined academic study and specialization in nursing. Those who complete the latter course successfully receive the degree of Bachelor of Science with a major in nursing as well as a diploma in nursing.
OBJECTIVES OF THE SCHOOL OF NURSING
In attempting to anticipate the future professional needs of its graduates, the University of Maryland School of Nursing carefully selects young women to educate them to become professional nurses who will administer sympathetic and safe nursing care to the sick, and who will teach the principles of health and prevention of disease needed in an ever-changing society.
FACILITIES FOR EDUCATION
The University of Maryland Hospital, a general hospital, has a capacity of 435 beds and 70 bassinets. The wards and Out-patient Department afford valuable opportunities for the clinical experience of the student nurse as well as for the study of family and community problems. The classroom, laboratories, and library of the School of Medicine are available for instruc- tional purposes. Clinical experience in Psychiatric Nursing is provided at Sheppard and Enoch Pratt Hospital; in Communicable Disease Nursing at Sydenham Hospital; and a limited number of affiliations in Public Health Nursing with the Baltimore City Health Department.
RESIDENT FACILITIES
Student nurses reside in Louisa Parsons Hall. The residence is under the direction of a graduate registered nurse. Plans for a new Nurses Residence and Recreational Center have been approved for the near future.
LIBRARY FACILITIES
The School of Nursing Library is an integral part of the University of Maryland library system, and is under the Director of Libraries of the University. Both scientific and recreational collections of books are pro- vided in the library which is conveniently located on the first floor of the Louisa Parsons Hall.
The facilities of the Medical, Dental, Pharmaceutical, and Law School Libraries are available to the students in the School of Nursing. Additional facilities are provided at the main branch of the Enoch Pratt Free Library, which comprises the public library system for the City of Baltimore; the Peabody Library, which contains a large collection of non-circulating rare books; the Maryland Historical Society Library; and the Library of Con- gress, which conducts an inter-loan service to the major libraries of the country.

FEES AND ESTIMATED EXPENSES
Fixed Fee $50.00
Student Activity Fee 5.00
Library Fee 2.00
Textbooks 60.00
Uniforms 65.00
These costs are approximate and may fluctuate because of changing living costs. Throughout the course students are provided maintenance which in- cludes room, board, and laundry of uniforms. At the present time a limited number of students are allowed the privilege of living at home, permission for which is granted by the Director of Nurses. Students' uniforms will be obtained after admission to the School of Nursing. Shoes, stockings and other personal items are furnished by the students. Expenses such as meals, carfare, and incidentals which the student incurs during periods of affiliation or field trips are borne by the student.
HEALTH SERVICE
The School of Nursing maintains a Health Service for the students under the general direction of a Committee on Health Services. Periodic health examinations are provided for each student.
Vaccination against Typhoid Fever and Smallpox are required of all students before admission to the School of Nursing. Medical care is pro- vided for student nurses. Dental case is not provided in the Health Service, but care is furnished by the Dental School of the University of Maryland at a minimal fee to the student.
Time which is lost due to illness in excess of fourteen days during the three year period, is required to be made up.
EXTRA PROFESSIONAL PROGRAM
The student nurses have a student government organization the function of which is to assist in the government of the school in cooperation with the faculty, and to plan recreational activities.
Upon her admission each new student is met by one of the older students who acts as her big sister. This is a helpful relationship in which the older student assists the new one with advice and suggestions based on her own experience in the School of Nursing.
Recreational facilities are utilized to the utmost. The "Y" pool is rented for Tuesday nights. Here the students enjoy the relaxation of a cool swim or the hilarity of sport in the water after a busy day. During the winter season, basketball is played in the gym of the church next door. In the warmer months, badminton in the court is substituted. Parties for tennis and other sports are made up from time to time and held in the parks or other surrounding facilities. A dance or a big party is held about once a month. The nurses dining room is used for informal dances and a downtown hotel ballroom for formal ones. The adjacent Schools of Medicine, Phar- macy, and Dentistry cooperate in these dances and add to the general pleasure.
12 UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
Baltimore City is a center of culture and education. It offers much stimu- lation to the visitor and the inhabitant in the way of drama, music, art, lectures, libraries, and the like. The Student Government Organization plans trips to various functions and points of interest. It buys blocks of tickets for special plays and concerts, and sells them to student nurses at cost because they may not know until the last minute whether they can go.
In cooperation with the Director and the faculty, the students make rules and administer them in regard to discipline, house regulations, and con- ventions. This not only makes for a better spirit of democracy, but prepares the student for coming leadership and participation in the community.
All of these activities help the students to realize their profession. Inter- est, relaxation, responsibility, and cooperation are thus fostered and form a vital part of the student's life.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
Evidence of personal stability for nursing in relation to physical health, emotional stability, and general qualifications of personality, cultural de- velopment and maturity must be submitted, and a personal interview with the Director of the School of Nursing or one of her assistants is required. If the student is too far distant from the University the interview is given by a member of the National League of Nursing Education in that area.
Graduates of accredited secondary schools will be admitted by certificate upon the recommendation of the principal. In selecting students, more emphasis will be placed upon good marks and other indications of probable success in nursing rather than upon a fixed pattern of subject matter.
English 4 units required for all divisions of the University.
Mathematics 2 .units — One unit each of algebra and plane
geometry is desirable.

The fee is paid directly to the League. i"7

CURRICULUM
BASIC PROFESSIONAL COURSE (Three- Year Course)
The curriculum covers a period of three years after which time a diploma in Nursing is awarded by the University of Maryland upon recommendation by the School of Nursing. The pre-clinical period consists of the first six months and is devoted primarily to the study of the sciences basic to nursing, the principles and practice of nursing, and the supervised practice of skills learned in the classroom. The students who meet the requirements both in scholastical and clinical work, will be accepted into the School of Nursing as clinical students.
Following the preclinical period students are assigned within a division for five hours of clinical practice and two fifty minute periods of class per day, including meal hours. One free day a week is given, and careful planning makes it possible to give this day off without class interference. At the present time plans are being made to institute a forty hour week.
The Executive Committee may, at any time, termi- nate a student's course if she fails to meet the stand- ards of the School of Nursing or the University of Maryland.
A three-year Graduate Nurse is pictured at upper left. FIVE-YEAR COMBINED ARTS AND SCIENCES AND NURSING
The first two years of this curriculum comprising a minimum of 60 semester hours exclusive of hygiene and physical activities, are taken in the College of Arts and Sciences at College Park and the professional training is taken in the School of Nursing of the University of Maryland in Baltimore.
In addition to the Diploma in Nursing, the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing may, upon the recom- mendation of the Director of the School of Nursing, be granted at the end of the professional training.
A student may enter this combined curriculum with advanced standing but the second year, consisting of a minimum of 30 credits, exclusive of physical training, must be completed in College Park. To qualify for the combined degree the student must complete the re- quired work at College Park before beginning the pro- fessional training in Baltimore.
In order to receive the Bachelor of Science degree the student must fulfill the grade requirements oi the university.

POLICIES OF THE SCHOOL OF NURSING
1. It is requested that students maintain a satisfactory record in health (both physical and mental), in clinical, and in theoretical work in order to remain as a student in the School of Nursing.
2. An annual report of the achievement of the student is given to the student and a copy is sent to her parents or guardian. The minimum passing grade for individual course is D, but the student must maintain a general average of C or above.
3. A fee of $5.00 is charged for reexamination in a course.
4. If a student does not pass a specific clinical service, she is permitted to repeat that service on her own time. If she has had other difficulties, in most cases, she may be asked to withdraw from the School of Nursing.
5. When a student is not meeting the standards of the School, both she and her parents or guardian will be notified. Under circumstances beyond her control she will be permitted to bring her record to a satisfactory level of achievement.
6. Students who do not complete satisfactory records with other affiliating agencies, such as Psychiatry, Contagious Diseases, and Public Health will not be recommended for State Board Examinations until evidence of passing these subjects is given in writing by those in charge of these particular courses.
7. Students may be absent from class only upon approval of the instructor teaching that particular class. No student should absent herself from class at any time unless she has at least a "B" average.

SANTA FILOMENA*
OR
THE LADY WITH THE LAMP
By HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW
(Dedicated to Florence Nightingale, "The Angel of Mercy of the Crimea," 1820-1910)
(Louisa Parsons, founder of Maryland's School of Nursing, graduated from the Nightingale School in London)
Whene'er a noble deed is wrought, Whene'er is spoken a noble thought, Our hearts, in glad surprise, To higher levels rise.
The tidal wave of deeper souls Into our inmost being rolls, And lifts us unawares Out of all meaner cares.
Honor to those whose words or deeds Thus help us in our daily needs, Any by their overflow Raise us from what is low!
Thus thought I, as by night I read, Of the great army of the dead The trenches cold and damp, The starved and frozen camp.
The wounded from the battle plain, In dreary hospitals of pain, The cheerless corridors, The cold and stony floors.
Lo, in that house of misery,
A lady with a lamp I see
Pass through the glimmering room,
And flit from room to room.
And slow, as in a dream of bliss, The speechless sufferer turns to kiss Her shadow, as it falls Upon the darkening walls.
As if a door in heaven should be Opened and then closed suddenly, The vision came and went, The light shone and was spent.
On England's annals, through the long Hereafter of her speech and song, That light its rays shall cast From portals of the past.
A lady with a lamp shall stand In the great history of the land, A noble type of good, Heroic womanhood.
Nor even shall a wanting here. The palm, the lily, and the spear, The symbols that of yore Saint Filomena bore.
* Santa Filomena, patron Saint of nurses. In Pisa, Italy, a painting by Sabatelli repre- sents the Saint as a beautiful, nymph -like figure, floating down from heaven, attended by angels bearing the lily, palm, and javelin. In the foreground are shown the sick and maimed, healed by Filomena.

THE SCHOOL OF NURSING 9
PROGRAM OF STUDY
The present School of Nursing offers a program of study, instituted in 1924, to two groups: to those who desire to complete -their work in approxi- mately thirty-six months, and to those who desire the five year combined academic study and specialization in nursing. Those who complete the latter course successfully receive the degree of Bachelor of Science and a diploma in nursing.
OBJECTIVES OF THE SCHOOL OF NURSING
In attempting to anticipate the future professional needs of its graduates and community, the University of Maryland School of Nursing carefully selects young women to educate them to become professional nurses who will administer sympathetic and safe nursing care to the sick, and who will teach the principles of health and prevention of disease needed in an ever- changing society.
FACILITIES FOR EDUCATION
The University of Maryland Hospital, a general hospital, has a capacity of 435 beds and 70 bassinets. The wards and Out-patient Department afford valuable opportunities for the clinical experience of the student nurse as well as for the study of family and community problems. The classroom, laboratories, and library of the School of Medicine are available for instruc- tional purposes. Clinical experience in Psychiatric Nursing is provided at Sheppard and Enoch Pratt Hospital; in Communicable Disease Nursing at Sydenham Hospital; and a limited number of affiliations in Public Health Nursing with the Baltimore City Health Department.
RESIDENT FACILITIES
Student nurses reside in Louisa Parsons Hall. The residence is under the direction of a graduate registered nurse. Plans for a new Nurses Residence and Recreational Center have been approved for the near future.
LIBRARY FACILITIES
The School of Nursing Library is an integral part of the University of Maryland library system, and is under the Director of Libraries of the University. Both scientific and recreational collections of books are pro- vided in the library which is conveniently located on the first floor of the Louisa Parsons Hall.
The facilities of the Medical, Dental, Pharmaceutical, and Law School Libraries are available to the students in the School of Nursing. Additional facilities are provided at the main branch of the Enoch Pratt Free Library, which comprises the public library system for the City of Baltimore; the Peabody Library, which contains a large collect ion of non-circulating rare books; the Maryland Historical Society Library; and the Library of Con- gress, which conducts an inter-loan service to the major libraries of the country.
10 UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
FEES AND ESTIMATED EXPENSES FOR THREE YEARS IN THE SCHOOL OF NURSING
Fixed Fee $50.00*
Student Activity Fee 5.00
Textbooks (approximately) 60.00
Uniforms 70.00
These costs are approximate and may fluctuate because of changing living costs. Throughout the course students are provided maintenance which in- cludes room, board, and laundry of uniforms. At the present time a limited number of students are allowed the privilege of living at home, permission for which is granted by the Director of Nurses. Students' uniforms will be obtained after admission to the School of Nursing. Shoes, stockings and other personal items are furnished by the students. Expenses such as meals, carfare, and incidentals which the student incurs during periods of affiliation or field trips are borne by the student.
HEALTH SERVICE
The School of Nursing maintains a Health Service for the students under the general direction of a Committee on Health Services. Periodic health examinations are provided for each student.
Vaccination against Typhoid Fever and Smallpox are required of all students before admission to the School of Nursing. Medical care is pro- vided for student nurses. Dental care is not provided in the Health Service, but care is furnished by the Dental Clinic, second floor of University Hospital.
Time which is lost due to illness in excess of fourteen days during the three-year period, is made up at the discretion of the faculty.
EXTRA PROFESSIONAL PROGRAM
The student nurses have a student government organization the function of which is to assist in the government of the school in cooperation with the faculty, and to plan recreational activities.
Upon her admission each new student is met by one of the older students who acts as her big sister. This is a helpful relationship in which the older student assists the new one with advice and suggestions based on her own experience in the School of Nursing.
Recreation facilities are utilized to the utmost. The "Y" pool is used for Tuesday nights. Here the students enjoy the relaxation of a cool swim or the hilarity of sport in the water after a busy day. During the winter season, basketball is played in the "gym" of the church next door. Parties for tennis and other sports are made up from time to time and held in the parks or other surrounding facilities. A dance or a big party is held about once a month. The nurses' dining room is used for informal dances and a downtown hotel ballroom for formal ones. The adjacent Schools of Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry, and Law cooperate in these dances and add to the general pleasure. Recently a Glee Club has been organized.
* Subject to change pending combined recreational program which is now being estab- lished in the University of Maryland.
THE SCHOOL OF NURSIXG 11
Baltimore City is a center of culture and education. It offers much stimu- lation to the visitor and the inhabitant in the way of drama, music, art, lectures, libraries, and the like. The Student Government Association plans trips to various functions and points of interest.
In cooperation with the Director and the faculty, the students make rules and administer them in regard to discipline, house regulations, and con- ventions. This not only makes for a better spirit of democracy, but prepares the student for coming leadership and participation in community life.
All of these activities help the students to realize their profession. Inter- est, relaxation, responsibility, and cooperation are thus fostered and form a vital part of the student's life.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
Evidence of personal stability for nursing in relation to physical health, emotional stability, and general qualifications of personality, cultural de- velopment and maturity must be submitted, and a personal interview with the Director of the School of Nursing or School Counselor. If the student is too far distant from the University the interview is given by a member of the National League of Nursing Education in that area.
Graduates of accredited secondary schools will be admitted by certificate upon the recommendation of the principal. In selecting students, more emphasis will be placed upon good marks and other indications of probable success in nursing rather than upon a fixed pattern of subject matter.
English 4 units required for all divisions of the University.
Mathematics 2 units — One unit each of algebra and plane
geometry is desirable.
History 1 unit, 2 units are desirable.
Foreign language 1 unit, 2 units are desirable (Latin suggested).

The fee is paid directly to the League.

UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
CURRICULUM
BASIC PROFESSIONAL COURSE (Three- Year Course)
The curriculum covers a period of three years after which time a diploma in Nursing is awarded by the University of Maryland upon recommendation by the School of Nursing. The pre-clinical period consists of the first six months and is devoted primarily to the study of the sciences basic to nursing, the principles and practice of nursing, and the supervised practice of skills learned in the classroom. The students who meet the requirements both in scholastical and clinical work, will be accepted into the School of Nursing as clinical students.
Following the preclinical period students are assigned within a division for five hours of clinical practice and two fifty minute periods of class per day, including meal hours. One free day a week is given, and careful planning makes it possible to give this day off without class interference. At the present time plans are being made to institute a forty hour week.
The Executive Committee of the Faculty may, at any time, terminate a student's course if she fails to meet the standards of the School of Nursing or the Univer- sity of Maryland.

UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
OBJECTIVES OF THE SCHOOL OF NURSING
In attempting to anticipate the future professional needs of its gradu- ates and community, the University of Maryland School of Nursing care- fully selects young women to educate them to become professional nurses who will administer sympathetic and safe nursing care to the sick, and who will teach the principles of health and prevention of disease needed in an everchanging society.
PROGRAM OF STUDY
The present School of Nursing offers a program of study, instituted in 1924, for two groups: to those who desire to complete their work in approxi- mately thirty-six months, and to those who desire the five year combined academic study and specialization in nursing. Those who complete the latter course successfully receive the degree of Bachelor of Science and a diploma in nursing.
FACILITIES FOR EDUCATION
The University of Maryland Hospital, a general hospital, has a capacity of 435 beds and 70 bassinets. The hospital units as well as the Out-Patient Department afford valuable opportunities for clinical experience which includes a study of family and community relations. There is under con- struction a psychiatric division and additional facilities, including medicine, surgery, pediatrics and obstetrics areas of the hospital. Clinical experi- ence in Psychiatric Nursing is provided at Sheppard and Enoch Pratt Hos- pital and the Springfield State Hospital. Public Health Nursing experience is available with the Baltimore City Health Department.
LIBRARY FACILITIES
The School of Nursing Library is an integral part of the University of Maryland library system, and is under the Director of Libraries of the University. Both scientific and recreational collections of books are pro- vided in the library which is conveniently located on the first floor of the Louisa Parsons Hall.
The facilities of the Medical, Dental, Pharmaceutical, and Law School Libraries are available to the students in the School of Nursing. Additional facilities are provided at the main branch of the Enoch Pratt Free Library, which comprises the public library system for the City of Baltimore; the Peabody Library, which contains a large collection of non-circulating rare books; the Maryland Historical Society Library; and the Library of Con- gress, which conducts an inter-loan service to the major libraries of the country.

HEALTH SERVICE
The School of Nursing maintains a Health Service for the students under the general direction of a Committee on Health Services. Periodic health examinations are provided for each student.
Vaccination against Typhoid Fever and Smallpox are required of all students before admission to the School of Nursing. Medical care is pro- vided for student nurses. Dental care is not provided in the Health Service, but care is furnished by the Dental Clinic, second floor of University Hospital.
Time which is lost due to illness in excess of fourteen days during the three-year period, is made up at the discretion of the faculty.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
The student nurses have a student government organization the function of which is to assist in the government of the school in cooperation with the faculty, and to plan recreational activities.
Upon her admission each new student is met by one of the older students who acts as her big sister. This is a helpful relationship in which the older student assists the new one with advice and suggestions based on her own experience in the School of Nursing.
Recreation facilities are utilized to the utmost. The "Y" pool is used for Tuesday nights. Here the students enjoy the relaxation of a cool swim or the hilarity of sport in the water after a busy day. During the winter season, basketball is played in the "gym" of the church next door. Parties for tennis and other sports are made up from time to time and held in the parks or other surrounding facilities. A dance or a big party is held about once a month. The nurses' dining room is used for informal dances and a downtown hotel ballroom for formal ones. The adjacent Schools of Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry, and Law cooperate in these dances and add to the general pleasure. Recently a Glee Club has been organized.
Baltimore City is a center of culture and education. It offers much stimu- lation to the visitor and the inhabitant in the way of drama, music, art, lectures, libraries, and the like. The Student Government Association plans trips to various functions and points of interest.
In cooperation with the Director and the faculty, the students make rules and administer them in regard to discipline, house regulations, and con- ventions. This not only makes for a better spirit of democracy, but prepares the student for coming leadership and participation in community life.
All of these activities help the students to realize their profession. Inter- est, relaxation, responsibility, and cooperation are thus fostered and form a vital part of the student's life.

BASIC PROFESSIONAL COURSE (Three- Year Course)
The curriculum covers a period of three years after which time a diploma in Nursing is awarded by the University of Maryland upon recommendation by the School of Nursing. The pre-clinical period consists of the first six months and is devoted primarily to the study of the sciences basic to nursing, the principles and practice of nursing, and the supervised practice of skills learned in the classvoom. The students who meet the requirements both in scholastical and clinical work, will be accepted into the School of Nursing as clinical students.
Following the preclinical period students are assigned within a division for five hours of clinical practice and two fifty minute periods of class per day, including meal hours. One free day a week is given, and careful planning makes it possible to give this day off without class interference. At the present time plans are being made to institute a forty hour week.

10 UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
GENERAL INFORMATION
The school of nursing of the University of Maryland, the second school of nursing to be founded in Maryland, was organized in 1889 by Louisa Parsons, a student of Florence Nightingale, and a graduate of the St. Thomas Hospital School, London. Miss Nightingale, because of her in- terest in Miss Parson's new American school, designed the present gradu- ate nurse's cap.
The original curriculum, two years in length, was extended in 1902 to three years. For a generation, well prepared graduates of the growing school nursed in the community, founded schools in Maryland and other states, and served in their professional organizations. In World War I graduates of the school went with the Medical Unit of the University of Maryland- working on foreign soil with the same surgeons under whom they had studied in the University Hospital. In 1920 the school of nursing became a separate unit in the University, although it functioned as a Hospital School.
In 1926, during the period of grading of schools of nursing by the nursing profession through its appointed committee, the University of Maryland institute a five-year program. The student after completing two years of academic work in the College of Arts and Sciences and three years in the School of Nursing received the Bachelor of Science degree and the Diploma of Graduate in Nursing.
Recent trends in nursing created in Maryland, as in other states, a demand for a program leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing. The faculty, therefore, advised the President and Board of Regents of the University to inaugurate such a plan to replace the existing five- year curriculum. On May 26, 1952, the four-year program was publicly announced by the President of the University. A Dean was appointed and members of the faculty were accorded academic status. Through this action, the Nursing School became a degree-granting institution. The School of Nursing, being a part of the State University which is also a Land Grant College, receives the funds for operation from the University. A separate budget prepared by the Dean and members of the faculty is administered and controlled by them.
During the present period of national transition in schools of nursing, the University of Maryland is obliged to offer two programs in basic nursing education: the four calendar year program, leading to a B.S. degree in Nursing, and the three-year diploma course inaugurated in 1902. Both programs are planned in light of their objectives and of community needs.
MEMBERSHIP AND ACCREDITATION
The University of Maryland, which incorporates the School of Nursing with all of the other schools of the University, is a member of the Asso- ciation of American Colleges and is accredited by the Middle States Associ- ation of Colleges and Secondary School.
THE SCHOOL OF NURSING 11
Both programs in Nursing, the three and five (now four-year program) are approved by the Maryland State Board of Examiners of Nurses; and by the National Nursing Accrediting Service for the five-year interim accreditation.
FACILITIES FOR INSTRUCTION
Facilities of instruction of the college students in the degree program are: the various colleges of the University of Maryland at College Park, the professional schools of the University — Dentistry, Law, Medicine, Pharmacy, the University Hospital, and the college of Special and Con- tinuation Studies on the Baltimore campus.
In addition to these, the School of Nursing makes use of the following Clinical Nursing Facilities:
1. The University of Maryland Hospital — a general hospital with approximately a 700-bed capacity.
a. Medical Nursing
b. Surgical Nursing
c. Pediatric Nursing
d. Obstetric Nursing
e. Out-Patient Nursing — over 300,000 patient visits were made in the Out-Patient Department in 1951
2. Springfield State Hospital (Psychiatric Nursing)
3. Baltimore City Health Department (Public Health Nursing)
4. University of Maryland Nursery School, College Park
5. Baltimore City Hospitals (Communicable Disease Nursing)
LIBRARY FACILITIES
Libraries are located at both the College Park and Baltimore divisions of the University. In addition to the general library, volumes on the College Park campus are shelved in the Chemistry, Entomology and Mathe- matics Departments, the Graduate School, and other units.
The general library is a depository for publications of the United States Government, and numbers some 75,000 documents in its collection.
The University Library System is able to supplement its reference service by borrowing materials from other libraries through Inter-Library Loan or Bibliofilm Service, or by arranging for personal work in the Library of Congress, the United States Department of Agriculture Library, and other agencies in Washington.
The School of Nursing Library is an integral part of the University of Maryland Library System, and is under the Director of Libraries of the Uni- versity. Both scientific and recreational collections of books are provided in the library which is conveniently located on the first floor of Louisa Parsons Hall.
12 UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
The facilities of the Medical, Dental, Pharmaceutical, and Law School Libraries are available to the students of the School of Nursing. Addi- tional facilities are provided at the main branch of the Enoch Pratt Free Library, which comprises the public library system of the City of Balti- more; the Peabody Library which comprises a large collection of non- circulating books; the Maryland Historical Society Library.
ADMISSION OF FRESHMEN
Graduates of accredited secondary schools will be admitted by certifi- cate upon the recommendation of the principal. The admission require- ments of the School of Nursing are practically the same as the other schools of the University, except that no foreign language is required. Emphasis will be placed on indications of probable success in nursing rather than upon a fixed pattern of subject matter. The following distri- bution of subject matter is, desirable:
English 4 units, required for all divisions of the University
Mathematics 2 units, one each of Algebra and Plane Geometry
is desirable
History 1 unit, two units are desirable
Foreign Language
(substitute) 1 unit, two units are desirable
Science
Biology 1 unit
Chemistry .1 unit
Physics 1 unit
The school is open to those American citizens who can qualify for admis- sion. Foreign students may be admitted if approved by the Committee on Admissions. Applicants should be 17 to 40 years of age. Evidence of per- sonal fitness for nursing in regard to health, personality, and moral char- acter must be submitted. A personal interview with the Dean of the School of Nursing, her assistants, or Student Advisor is required.
Prospective students for the diploma program are required to take the Pre-Nursing and Guidance Test Battery given by the Department of Meas- urement and Guidance, of the National League for Nursing to determine potentialities for nursing. Directions for this Pre-Nursing Test will be sent following review of the applicant's creditentials by the Committee on Admissions. A fee of five dollars for the test is paid directly to the National League for Nursing, 2 Park Avenue, New York, New York. Degree stu- dents are exempted from taking this test, but are required to take the bat- tery of tests administered by the Psychology Department, University of Maryland.
THE SCHOOL OF NURSING 13
Application Procedure
Students for both programs are admitted to the School once yearly in September, during the regular college admission week. It is advised that cre- dentials and applications be submitted well in advance of the admission date, so that applicants may receive assistance in planning high school and college programs. Students with advanced college standing are transferred to the Baltimore campus on the first Tuesday following the Fourth of July. Ap- plication form and complete information regarding entrance requirements may be obtained from the office of the Dean of the School of Nursing, University of Maryland, Baltimore 1, Maryland.
Registration
All persons are required to register in person on or within the day or days announced in the school calendar. The registration procedure consists of (1) filing a registration blank at the Registrar's office, (2) receipt of bill at the Registrar's office, and (3) the payment of bill (fees and expenses) at the financial office.
Students who register late are required to pay a late registration fee of five dollars. The last day of registration with fee added to the regular charges is Saturday of the week in which registration begins. The offices of the Registrar and Comptroller are open daily from 9: A.M. to 4:00 P.M. and Saturday from 9:00 A.M. to 12:00 Noon. To avoid late registration fee, payment may be made by mail, however, the envelope must be postmarked not later than midnight on the date of registration.
Students cannot receive credit in courses for which they do not register, nor are they permitted to attend classes without course cards.
FEES AND EXPENSES
All fees are due and payable at the time of registration and students should come prepared to pay the full amount of the charges. Checks and money orders should be made payable to the University of Maryland for the exact amount of charges. No student will be admitted to classes until such payment has been made.
In cases where a student has been awarded a scholarship, the amount of such scholarship or grant will be deducted from the bill.
The University reserves the right to make such changes in fees and other expenses as may be found necessary, although every effort will be made to keep the costs to the student as low as possible.
No degree will be conferred, nor any diploma, certificate, or transcript of a record issued to a student who has not made satisfactory settlement of his account. In event of dismissal or resignation, the general rules of the University are applicable.
14 UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
The charges are approximate and may fluctuate because of changing economic conditions. Student uniforms are obtained during the first year in the School of Nursing. Expenses such as meals, carfare, and incidentals which the student incurs during periods of affiliation or field trips are borne by the student.
DESCRIPTION OF FEES
The Fixed Charges Fee is not a charge for tuition. It is a charge to help defray the cost of operating the University's physical plant and other various services which ordinarily would not be included as a cost of teaching per- sonnel and teaching supplies. Included in these costs would be janitorial services, cost of heat, electricity, water, etc., administrative and clerical cost, maintenance of building and grounds, maintenance of libraries, cost of University Publications Alumni Office, the Admissions Office, and any other such services as are supplemental and necessary to teaching and research are supported by this fee.
The Athletic Fee is charged for the support of the Department of Inter- Collegiate Athletics. All students are eligible and encouraged to participate in all the activities of this department and to attend all contests in which they do not participate.
The Special Fee is used for University projects that have direct relation- ship to Student welfare, especially athletics and recreation. This fee, now allotted to a fund for construction of a new combination Physical Education Building, and Auditorium, and to constructing a swimming pool and student union.
The Student Activities Fee is a mandatory fee included at the request of the Student Government Association. It covers subscription to the Diamond- back, student newspaper; the Old Line, literary magazine; the Terrapin, yearbook; class dues; and includes financial support for the musical and dramatic clubs.
The Infirmary Fee does not include expensive drugs or special diagnostic procedures. Expensive drugs will be charged at cost and special diagnostic procedure, such as x-ray, electrocardiographs, basal metabolic rates, etc., will be charged at the lowest cost prevailing in the vicinity.
Health Fee — payable on the Baltimore Campus, helps to defray the costs of maintenance of the health service. This includes routine examinations and medical care for the student body. Special treatments, medications, and examinations are not included in this service.
Students entering the University at College Park for the second semester will pay the following additional fees: Athletic, $7.50; Special, $7.60; Student Activity, $8.00; Infirmary, $2.50; Post Office Fees, $1.00; Advisory and Testing Fees, $.50.
