Our first day here on Hospital Hill Filled with excitement and awe, We looked ahead with hope in our hearts And were amazed with all we saw. Our fun-festive Weenie roast Was our first treat, For at this October gathering Our Big Sisters we did meet. The College studies some were braving, Others Nursing Arts Striving steadily towards the goal We held so dearly in our hearts. Studying day and night, Burning the midnight oil, Final Exams were here, For knowledge we did toil. How well we remember those long ago d When we spent so much time in class. We were probies young and green, Oh that bed bath, will I pass? Proctor duties, what a chore, Checking here and there. But it was made certain That we each got our share.

The newcomers to surgery all agreed That it was quite a sensation. For four hours the gloves did cook Making sure they were sterile. Every pair a total wreck Betty was in peril. Busses packed with students Headed for Willard Brook, Each year for our school picnic This little jaunt We took. Had your floors been swept? Did your sink look green?

At the Junior-Senior Banquet We laid out all the facts. Experiences We shall neier forget, Of our affiliation days, Memories everlasting, Treasured, yes, in so many ways. t'Meeting come to order!
