Initiation of the Probies Air raid . . . sing me a nothing song . . . what time is it roosters? . . . These dreaded demands were made upon the Freshmen probies during hell week. Hell week ran its course throughout the third week of school this year. The week started off the initiation of the Freshmen probies. It was full of strange antics that the Freshmen had to per- form. Have you ever tried to wear a plastic glove on your head? The Fresh- men did not care for it, but they sure looked hilarious. Every night at approximately 9:00, the Freshmen were dragged from their rooms to run the halls of the dorm. As they ran, they sang the song the Ju- niors had instructed them to sing. It was soon discovered that the probies were not a choir. The Freshmen spent their days try- ing to avoid the upperclassmen. Some Probies Theresa Foreman and Jenny McNamara relax during the Thursday evening picnic. Amy Bales and Marie Hogue observe as Theresa Stukenborg tastes the Juniors' Special treatn during a nightly raid. 8 HELL WEEK were unsuccessful and were caught by a Junior or Senior who yelled air raid. Immediately, the Freshmen dropped to one knee and began acting like they were shooting a machine gun. The pro' bies didn't mind the air raids until they were caught in the hospital cafeteria in front of the doctors and nurses. Hell week ended on Thursday night with a picnic. The Freshmen did not think it was a picnic. The probies ate from bedpans and drank from catheter bags. The juniors did a tremendous job in making the contents of the bedpan and catheter very authentic. After the picnic, the Freshmen, dressed in their surgical probie caps, walked around the hospital singing how many weeks they had until they received their capsg which designates they are no longer a probie.

Open House-Parkview Points the One of the biggest recruitment cam- paigns of the year is Open House. Many people, old and young, showed up to check out our school and hospital. Students and instructors created a dra- matic arena of displays and demonstra- tions, depicting a wide variety of areas in which nurses serve. Each rotation was displayed with students present to answer questions and offer assistance concerning the nursing program. Tours of both the hospital and school were offered. Local television stations pro- vided media coverage. rf J A 5' Senior Judy Nelson points out some of the intracacies of Leadership Nursing.
