A 3-YEAR TRIAL-RUN The pre-nursing course attempts to give the student an accurate picture of nursing, and at the same time presents a good basic high school background for further training in the field of nursing. A girl wishing to go into the field of nursing must have an interest in caring for others. The pre-nursing course requires that the student take such subjects as biology, chemistry, and physics. Many students acquire additional e |wrience during their summers as nurses aid in hospitals. Muring three years at Vocational a student finds out whether or not she is adapted to nursing and whether she has the ability for further training. After successful completion of the pre-nursing course, she may apply for training in a more s| ecinlized field. Uenricksen, .Mr t.
