Quiet Meditation The Baptist Student Union not only provides many opporttmities for fun and fellowship with other college students at local cook-outs, hikes, and retreats and at State BSU meetings, but it also made possible discussions on pertinent issues of our time. Vesper Services were started and these often being outdoors seemed to give students a spiritual lift. The main project of the year was to raise sufficient funds to help send BSU'ers of Virginia who were selected to serve in home and foreign fields as student summer missionaries. Through much effort our goal of S150 was met. B.S.U. Provides ft ll -fx 5 fs 39' m uw

District IX, Student Nurses' Association held its first meeting in the fall of 1960. An Executive Board, com- posed of six student members, one elected advisor and two representatives from the District Graduate organiza- tion, is elected annually in the spring. Membership consists of students from Virginia Baptist and Lynchburg General Hospitals. Delegates represent District IX at National and State Conventions and State Executive Board meetings. Meetings are held bi-monthly with programs to aid in the development of the student nurse as an individual and as a member of a group. It tends to provide-a more Luiified spirit among student nurses and to promote pro- fessional and social unity within the district. It en- courages high educational and professional standards and provides opportunity for exchange of ideas with students and graduate professional nursing organizations.
