Bampus Program Prepares Nurses Union College's nursing education program requires four academic years, a summer session of twelve weeks be- tween the sophomore and junior years, and a summer session of twelve weeks between the junior and senior years. The first two years are filled with gen- eral education courses which the pro- spective nursing students take on the Lincoln campus of Union College. Mrs. Widad Mohr, B.S., R.N. and M.S. in health education, is the sole nursing instructor on the Lincoln cam- pus. Prior to joining the staff this year, she taught nursing at Bryan Memorial Hospital, which is approximately two miles north of Union on South 48th. Mrs. Mohr teaches health principles, history and trends in nursing, and foundations of nursing. I miss patient contact, commented Mrs. Mohr, but 1 enjoy teaching because I enjoy as- sociation with the students and coun- seling them as they work toward their goalsf' Chairman of the Nursing Depart- ment is Miss Ruth Haller, who spends three out of every four weeks on the Denver campus. While in Lincoln she counsels the freshman and soph- omore nursing students and reviews t h e i r 'present educational program, making sure it meets State Depart- ment of Nursing requirements. Mrs. Widad Mohr demonstrates how to take blood pressures to future nurse Carol Stephenson. Playing nurse and patient is only fun now for these nursing club officers. In one year they go to Denver.
