We are proud and happy to have so many of them with us again. Nurses from the Second General Hospital Unit at Arlington National Ceme- tery May 31, 1942. Decoration of Miss Maxwell ' s grave by the Alumnae Association was the first event in the celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the founding of the school. Margaret E. Conrad Associate Dean and Director of Nursing TO THE CLASS OF 1946: Your course in nursing has been almost equally divided between wartime and peacetime, each with its special problems. To the normal activities and responsibilities of student nurses, you have added air raid drills, blackouts, victory gardens, sewing bees, and endless and recurrent periods of relief, night duty and ' call ' . You have done these things not only without complaint but with a fine spirit quite worthy of the best traditions of your profession. We of the Faculty salute you as you finish your course, and we welcome you with pride into The Order of Neighbors . cl otf £.fyw4 HELEN YOUNG Director Emeritus of Nursing Presbyterian Hospital Honorary Member of the Class of 1 946 HOWARD H.

Oh grant us Lord that we may feel Thy strength along the way, The glory of Thy wisdom fill Each loyal heart and mind until Our last Commencement Day Maker Graduation June 6, 1946 Years In Retrospect r Uj TUNE 1943 found forty-three members of our class attending the Byrn Mawr J College Summer School where they completed three months of their pre- liminary term under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Wilcox, Associate Dean, and Miss Janet Yeager, Administrative Assistant. September 1943 found one hundred and seven members of our class enrolled in the Presbyterian Hospital School of Nursing at the College of Physicians and Surgeons. Dressed in gray and starchy white and greeted by Miss Margaret E. Conrad, Associate Dean and Director of Nursing and other members of the faculty, we found a new world opening its doors to us — a world different from anything we had ever known before. Arising at five- thirty A. M. to struggle with our collars, overwhelm the last wisp of hair under our hairnets, clip on our new fountain pens, adjust our family ' s only wrist watch with a second hand, we dashed downstairs into our new role; that of probie . We were to become as accustomed to our enclosing chair in Ampitheatre G as to our beds. We listened attentively as Dr. Rogers and Mrs. Dickey labored to get us through the maze of human anatomy. We enjoyed chem- istry in the smoke screen of Dr. Stetten ' s lectures. We produced colonies of bacteria under Dr. Culbertson ' s direction. In diet lab, we learned the affinity of custard and scrambled eggs the hard way. In Nursing Arts, we mitred the corners on beds, poultices, and mustard plasters, gave each other baths and shampoos, and practiced carrying o ' ur classmates about with a nonchalance that would give the most phlegmatic patient a coronary. We stumbled through the confusion of precaution techniques in time for our final exami- nation with Miss Eliot, only to have a new and simplified set of rules evolved to prevent the spread of disease. January 1944 found five months gone by all too quickly. Under the guiding hand of our instructors we assimilated volumes in a very short time. With the gain of knowledge but without experience our conversation began to take on a grandiose and medical air. At last we were to be nurses — two hours on the ward! We had looked forward to this with a feeling of pride and eager anticipation. All too soon we stood trembling beside our first patient. In an hour and a half we had given the bath (?) and made the bed. We spent lunch time comparing notes and began our endless topic of conversation — MY PATIENT. Our head nurses, supervisors and doctors gave us the guidance and moral support we sorely needed. Gradually our confidence increased and we had the feeling of really belonging. Preliminary classes, difficult but stimulating, were over and the welcom- ing ceremony was upon us. We were no longer preliminary students in pro- tective gray but student nurses resplendent in caps and new stripes. Dazzled by the occasion and the candle-light we were led through the cere- mony by our big sisters and welcomed as members of the School of Nursing by Miss Conrad. The occasion will long remain in our memories, as will our first welcome by Miss Helen Young, Director Emeritus of Nursing, who later became one of our honorary class members. Along with our Stripes we learned to assume new responsibilities. We were happy to be a part of the hospital life. New and interesting study in medicine and surgery and the specialties opened up to us with Freshmen classes in the spring and Junior classes in the fall of 1944. We waded through the common cold, idiopathic thrombocytopenic pur- pura, five common types of hernia and somehow got through Medicines and Dressings . We lived amidst the confusion of drums and carriages, and weekly Grand Dressing Rounds! Relief , three to eleven P. M., were socially stifling hours indeed but we learned to assume the responsibility for a ward by ourselves. Night duty in the summer time permitted days on the roof or at Jones Beach. In Junior classes we learned about the various nursing specialties, how to cope with illness in the home and the versatility of newspaper. Our special services were fascinating, each unforgettable in its own way. We spent hours in the inferno of the diet kitchen, on fracture we turned patients in hip spicas; we gave countless penicillins on E. N. T. and learned to share the thrill of first sight with patients who had had corneal transplants. While some of us affiliated at the Neurological Institute others enjoyed a new atmosphere at the Psychiatric Institute of New York or the Institute of Living at Hartford, Connecticut. Our long anticipated months in the blood, sweat and tears of the O. R. passed quickly connecting suction and simul- taneously producing saline and standees, or in sublime sterility. Our Babies Hospital affiliation found us coping with eighth floor where there is no night, potty routine on seven, chaos on nine and children every- where. As for Sloane, truly, not one of us will ever forget her first delivery. Our years here were war years. We were accustomed to the civilian de- fense program, the air raid warnings, black-outs, drills and the ever present war-ships on the Hudson. A few of us joined the newly formed United States Cadet Corps in January 1944. During the summer months some of us spent many pleasant hours working at our victory garden at the Mary Harkness Home in Portchester. We greatly appreciated the assistance of Miss Eula Rathbun, our recreational director in this project. We found ourselves well represented in the activities of the Glee Club, Dramatic Club, Christian Fellow- ship Club and the Polygon Club. In spite of ourselves we survived Miss Rath- bun ' s efforts to make us healthy We saw.the war come to an end. We experienced V-E Day and V-J Day. In October 1945 we witnessed Navy Day from the roof of Maxwell Hall, felt the thrill of seeing the U. S. S. Renshaw, with President Truman aboard, steam majestically past our windows. We were here to see the return of our doctors and nurses from the battle fronts of World War II. We attempted to bring encouragement and cheer to the nurses of the Florence Nightingale School of Nursing at Bordeaux, France by sending Christmas packages, funds and many articles donated by students and staff alike. Our annual bazaar held in March made it possible for us to contribute $1 ,200 to this school. We have seen many changes at our hospital. Early research on penicillin and later on streptomycin made us feel a part of the pioneering as we carried out doctors ' orders in the administration of these drugs We opened our eyes in shocked horror at the program of early ambulation of the surgical patient, but quickly adjusted our nursing techniques and watched our patients ' prog- ress with pride. The end of the war brought new activity to the Medical Cen- ter. The P. H. floors lost the traditional letters and became numbered instead. Two new wings were added to the front of Maxwell Hall. We watched with avid interest the activity of building from the breaking of ground in July and laying of the corner stone by Mayor LaGuardia in December 1945 to the now nearly completed modern wings. We have welcomed the New York Orthopedic Hospital to our Medical Center. Those of us who affiliated at the Orthopedic Hospital on 59th Street look forward to having them join our family . We have also participated in the new Presbyterian Out-Patient Nursing Service organized in March 1946 which is proving increasingly successful. We can visualize its tremendous possibilities for the future. During our senior year, we have indeed grown professionally Our Mon- day evening classes in Professional Adjustments, conducted by Miss Conrad and several guest lecturers, gave us a new feeling for the profession of nurs- ing We are looking forward to the many stimulating opportunities open to us as graduates. In January 1946 we saw our Little Sisters welcomed into the school. Each of us nursed the secret hope that these younger students would come to an understanding of the real meaning of their work here We have taken cur last Anatomy and Pharmacology review examination in our stride and are writing our last nursing care studies. We have passed instructors and doctors orals May 1946 found graduation rapidly nearing, prefaced by the Florence Nightingale Memorial Service held at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine on May 19th, and closely followed by the Senior Banquet and Spring Dance held at Maxwell Hall. Graduation eve found us the guests of honor at a formal dinner and dance given by the Alumnae Association at the Hotel Pierre. Sev- eral of us received the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing at the Colum- bia University Commencement Exercises held on June 4th on the Columbia Campus On the afternoon of June 6th, arrayed in fully starched aprons, cuffs, and white shoes and stockings and adorned with a corsage of red roses refreshed by the falling rain drops, we were called forward and presented with the symbols which for three years have been our goal — our diplomas and Presbyterian Pins On this occasion we had the great honor of hearing, as our guest speaker, Miss Annie Warburton Goodrich, Dean Emeritus of the Yale School of Nursing. On June 7th we were presented to the Alumnae Association for mem- bership and were welcomed by Mrs. Martin DeForest Smith, the retiring president. The end of the day saw us regretfully lay away our white shoes and stockings and cuffs until that day in the future when we should really finish. These three years have been full indeed. We are grateful to Miss Con- rad for guiding us so skillfully and patiently, with the aid of the other mem- bers of the faculty and staff. We are proud to have as our honorary class members Miss Helen Young and Dr. Howard H. Mason. We appreciate the help and guidance of our class adviser, Miss G. Harriet Mantel. We thank the members of the faculty and teaching staff of the faculty of Medicine of Columbia University and of the Presbyterian Hospital. We salute the members of the P. H, family for their constant vigilance and willing aid to us through- out three of the most interesting years of our life.
