The faculty patiently watched o ' er us all Along with Big Sisters, indeed the whole place, For orientation became the first chore And dressed in our blues we soon learned what we ' d face. When Maxwell was probed from one end to the other And hospital corridors fathomed at length, Even textbooks distinguished, each one from another, The thought of the wards still left us quite faint. But that soon too passed; with aplomb we now went From class to the wards back and forth, forth and back — A stream of dark blue on a schedule bent: Ten minutes to travel a mile in a pack! The subjects we took were so many and varied — But always an ology ended the name; All kinds of strange words we soon learned and then parried, And chose right and left as those fiendish tests came. The end of vacation and term papers and all Meant capping— what pride in ourselves and our stripes! It meant along with it new tests and pitfalls, On wards facing challenges, all sorts of types. Twelve-thirties became slightly freer and so Case studies and papers accumulate more, Especially with Spring — alway ' s study ' s arch foe; Against this there ' s Cosgriff and others to war. Exam time arrives, but the question we ask Is not how we fared, but who starts on relief, For that is the challenge we ' ve heard is a task The equal to which nothing else can compete. 36 As some of us pass through this darkest of fates And some learn that children aren ' t always sublime, Still odrers at seven must then circulate; The rest in Obstetrics learn just how to time. We then switch around and around again too; In fact, soon we ' re in what seems just like a maze Of upside-down hours and everything new Each time we change wards— Junior Year ' s quite a phase. But other events big and small still take place; We ' re social as can be at all sorts of times. The Bazaar goes off fine with Petrini to pace The sale of goods for either dollars or dimes. We partied with joy when our halfway time came, When diamonds began coming in more and more; With far less excuse it was also the same, And the months flew on by and we learned more and more. Vacations began, Psychiatric, and others, We found ourselves then seniors now holding sway When all of us sat and could look at the others From tables quite special — it was really a day! It sometimes was hard to know what had become Of classmates, so scattered in services broad: In Visiting Nurse, GYN; and then some Were busy for two months at running a ward. And then senior interviews held with each girl; With Miss Lee and Miss Pettit about future goals. Such choices to make — why, all over the world They cry for more nurses, according to polls. Decisions are made, the die cast one more time And meanwhile the days tick on by as we plan Our banquet, festivities of many kinds — We gather as classmates as long as we can. On June fourth and sixdi another great milestone is passed Then on to the twenty-eighth, the end of the line As students (good gosh, that ' s what we ' ve been the last Umpteen years!). Now it ' s over — oh, cruel world, be kind! 0u i Jjitile p is tens g ass ffj ' 959 Class Officers - left to right: Carol Holmes, Secretary; Nell Kincaid, Vice-President; Beverly Hulin, Treasurer; Miss Glad, Class Adviser; Gail Benjamin, President. £ teJH Remember the day we first became official Big Sisters? What fun it was to welcome those wonderful enthusiastic girls who were to become so dear to us in the coming months. Sharing their trials and triumphs, gabbing until all hours of the night, offering advice and council, — how wise and knowing they made us feel. And how proud — how very proud we were that January evening when we saw them dedicate themselves to the profession we too have selected. One of the richest and most rewarding parts of our glorious senior year was that part spent being Big Sisters to each and ever) ' member of the Class of 1959 — the class we will never forget. 38 4 4  s i V 4 tptudent Activities STUDENT GOVERNMENT OFFICERS Seated: Dorothy Simpson, First Vice- President; Kathleen Kladivko, President; Martha Holbrook, Second Vice-Pres- ident.

On April 12, 1956, Maxwell Hall teas turned into a colorful center of activity. One could be found browsing in the European Side-walk shops, the Greenwich Village Art Show, and booths galore. The pool featured Out of this World, a water ballet in seven parts, while the Cafeteria was transformed into a Rathskeller with Latvian Folk Dancers, the P S Bards, and root beer and pretzels. Exhibit Internationale included a collection of dolls dressed in authentic Native Costumes. Travel films were slwwn, and the Auction topped the evening.
