ll x CAPPING CEREMONY The 1988 Capping Ceremony took place at the Seventh-day Aventist Church in Ket: ||| tering. Marjorie K. Lahm, Coordinator for Dayton School of Practical Nursing addressed |) the 76 students and the large audience in attendance. As the first year nursing students walked down the aisle they carried with them their + hopes and dreams for the future. They knelt to receive their cap or epaulettes and rose with new confidence. As each lamp was lit it rekindled thoughts of remarkable people ||! who paved the way for today’s nurses. As the Florence Nightengale Pledge was recited | the students examined themselves to see if they could meet the challenge. The flow of pride was upon the faces of the family and friends who attended. It is this | pride that will fortify the students to reach their goal and to excel at it. -Marsha Miller, First Year Nursing ee 36 NSG “ — ) Words of wisdom from our speaker, Marjorie Lahm.
