DEPARTMENT OF NURSING Since 1931, the Department of Nursing, in New Orleans, has been an active section of the School of Medicine. At- tending lectures, assisting in the hospital, reading to the patients, and the attaining of patience itself all lead to one outcome positions in professional nursing in hospitals, public health agencies, or other organized nursing services. The student nurse finds a curriculum designed to equip her with a thorough knowledge of the fundamental human re- lationships as well as a broad understanding of their appli- cation in our society.

The future lawyers of Louisiana face problems in Moot Court which they are likely to meet in their anticipated fields. No law student will deny that he spends most of his working hours studying for the degree which will enable him to practice law. SCHOOL OF LAW Looking from the Campanile across the parade ground, one envisions the hive for many young men who are pre- paring themselves for the practice of law in Louisiana where the civil law legal system prevails. From dawn to dusk, the law library to an exam, the Law dorms to the Lawyers Ball, each student equips himself with a knowledge of the prin- ciples of law which he will apply to the society in which he lives. These aspiring young lawyers spend several years working and learning before legal responsibility is thrust upon them. After a day of torts, contracts, and government, the Law student leaves his home away from home thinking about the long hours of studying to come.
