This was made financially possible by the generous gift of Mrs. Chester C. Bolton, Jr. who contributed one-half million dollars for its en- dowment. It is established on a coordinate basis with the other undergraduate Schools in the University, hav- ing a Dean and Faculty, laboratories, classrooms and a budget of its own. This is one of the very few Qthere being only two or three othersl endowed schools of nursing i11 the United States. The curriculuim provides a well-rounded basic course which adequately prepares its students to give efficient care to the sick in the community. It also provides a good foundation for more responsible positions in the field of administration, teaching, and public health work. Three courses are offered in the School of Nurs- ing-the five-year course which leads to a Bachelor of Science degree and Diploma in nursing-the three-year course which leads to a diploma in nurs- ing-and a course for graduate nurses which leads to a Bachelor of Science degree. The students secure their clinical experience in the University Hospitals-Lakeside, Babies and Children's, and Maternity-also in City Hospital with which we have an affiliation. -V It X.

CUTLER Dean of the School of Applied Social Sciences HE School of Applied Social Sciences is the lirst of its kind ever established within an American university. It was founded in 1916 by a unanimous vote of the Board of Trustees as the result of a peti- tion addressed to them some three years earlier by a committee representing social and civic organiza- tions of Cleveland. The need expressed in this petition became the aim of the School: to provide practical training for social service by combining specialized graduate study with actual Held work. In the first tive years, only two courses, Public llfealth Nursing and Family Case Work, were of- fered by the School. ln 1921, the course in Child XYelfare was begun, and in 1923,-one in Group Science. At the present time, plans are being made for a course in .Public Administration, which will probably be added to the curriculum next fall. In the decade of its existence, 'the number of students has increased from thirty-live the hrst year to one hundred seventy-seven at present. The School of Applied Social Sciences is one of the three professional graduate schools of the Uni- versity. 'l.'herefore, a full college course, with specialization in the social sciences, is required of all candidates for the Masters degree which the School confers. However, special students may be admitted to courses in which they are interested. l l l Z A' 'T 1,4105 E 9 5 3 1 i f? ff di , fd 5 1 Tiff we f e .H 'l 'mm' I 'ull' 5 ,fu . , ...... ., , , ,. . f 1- -1- ' : ' Pagr lem-1zf3.,!,lym FJELLA Wig-7,fQ: ...- -hlwk'
