That Be . . Here we come for approval of student activities. Advice on nursing and personal problems can be found. In short, the action for any grievance, the solution to any problem, the support for any cause is sought after and usually found in T.S.O. It is here that the Administrative-Stu- dent bonds are strengthened. Miss Hardeman Miss Fraser [ 9 ]

The Powers The Training School Office or T.S.O. as it is familiarly known is the heart of the School of Nursing. Here can be found Miss Sleeper our principal. The bench outside her office where one awaits her interviews is famed among M.G.H. students. In the outer offices our schedules are made up, food books and checks are given out. The many small details of our student life are here administered. Miss Lepper Miss Viden

Science Department Knowledge of chemistry, anatomy, pharmacology, microbiology, and all the other mysterious sciences is slowly and surely made our own through the efforts of Miss Sherwin and the staff of the Science Department. From our Probie Days until all classes are completed and requirements passed this department guides our progress and complements our ward duty to give us a full preparation upon which to build as nurses of the future. Nursing Department A m One of our first contacts with teaching at M.G.H. is Miss Perkins and her Nursing Arts Department. During our period of “probation we sit and listen with awe to the theory of bed- side nursing care. Shortly afterward we struggle to put this theory to practical use in the Nursing School Classroom — still under their watch- ful eyes. As we gradually master tech- niques and apply them in our ward work it is to this department that we look for that nod of approval.
