-«•::. : Cut Stony Although it seems like yesterday, it was ' way back in September 1946 when a valiant band of ' 49ers arrived in Maxwell Hall to begin the quest for something far more en- riching than gold — a career in nursing. We arrived by subway, bus, and Hudson Tube loaded with everything from suitcases to saxo- phones, and, of course, the ever-essential black shoes and stockings, watches and foun- tain pens. After a hearty welcome from our big sisters in the form of a tea, and an intro- duction to the twists and turns of our home to be for the next three years, the 104 girls in gray settled down to liven up the place (or so we thought) . Quickly assimilated into the hustle and bustle of Manhattan, having been guided around the isle by Miss Rathbun, we soon got into the routine of early breakfast and room duty , and were able to get dressed in the amazing speed of twenty minutes, de- spite the tourniquet action of the high white collar and the inevitable broken shoelace. The jump from eggs-a-la-goldenrod to sheep ' s eye dissection was hard on some, and Dr. Rogers ' cadaver demonstrations will always outrank The Return of Frankenstein in our sensitive memories. Classes sped on, pleasantly pre- faced by the skit and party given by the ever- encouraging Class of 1947. (We didn ' t know about the O.R. then!) We were given bandage scissors which were lost and found, exchanged and forgotten, and continually searched for for the following six months. In addition to our vigorous scholastic pro- gram. Miss Rathbun assumed charge of our shapeless forms with swimming, (did some- one ' s notes get dripped on?) gymnastics and folk dancing, and the beloved infrequent les- sons in relaxation. Nursing Arts was in full swing and we were all given a bed bath the day the painters were doing the outside of the demonstration room windows. The transition from classroom to ward (where the patients were a little more flexible) was passed through
