STUDENT NURSES CAPPING CEREMONY

Page 43 text:

STUDENT NURSES Opportunities for nurses ' train- ing are ottered at two Chicago hos- pitals which are both affiliated with North Park College, and are located on the North side of Chicago within a short distance of the school. The first, Swedish Covenant Hospital is owned and controlled by the Evan- gelical Mission Covenant Church of America. Since its organization, the hospital and the school of nursing have sought to maintain the Chris- tian principles and policies upon which it was founded. Second, the Ravenswood Hospital School of Nursing, though not directly affili- ated with the Mission Covenant Church is served by North Park fac- ulty and makes use of its science facilities. Many students, upon the com- pletion of the freshman year on the North Park campus, enter into the nurses ' training curriculum offered at one of these two outstanding hos- pitals. The increasing need for reg- istered nurses offers many career op- portunities for interested girls. Student nurses are always wel- come at the college-sponsored social activities Among these are parties on the campus, football and basket- ball games during the fall and win- ter months. Spring finds college baseball in the spotlight at nearby River Park. Both schools set up their own student organizations which function to promote cooperation and individ- ual responsibility, much the same as the typical college campus.
