Watts School of Nursing - White Cap Yearbook (Durham, NC)

Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1965 volume:

What Is A Student Nurse? Student Nurses come in all sizes, shapes, and caps. A Student Nurse is courage under a cap,a smile in snowy white, ambition in a starched uniform, and energy that is endless. To the head nurse she has the stability of musk, the fleetness of a snail, the mentality of a mule, and is held together by starch, adhesive tape, and strained nerves. A Student Nurse is Faith with a hypo in her hand; Hope with a patched uniform; Love with her hair clipped short. She likes days off, boys her own age, the O.R. affiliation, certain doctors, pretty clothes, her room- mate, Mom and Dad, and yes, her nursing school. She's not much on days off with class. She dislikes alarm clocks, getting up for roll call, and pink ham twice a week. No one else looks forward so much to a day off, or so little to working 3 to 11. No one else gets so much pleasure from straightening a wrinkled sheet or wetting a pair of parched lips. No one else gets such satisfaction from fluffing a pillow, applying a bandage, or easing the pain of a patient. A Student Nurse is a wonderful creature. You can criticize her, but cannot dishearten her. You can hurt her feelings but you cannot make her quit. Might as well admit it whether you are a head nurse, doctor, chaplain or patient, she is a hardworking determined young woman, doing her best for her patient, her school, her hospital, and her God. She may not be glamorous, intriguing, or sophisticated, but she is young at heart, and a shinning example of the American Way. Libra Whenever she becomes discouraged or the lamp gets H ; too heavy, she should remember that there is a reward ome waiting for her. Because surely some of God's angels wear white caps instead of halos, and carry medicine trays instead of harps. And when hours are long; studies are hard; when fatigue and lonesomeness are on her threshold, she is reinspired by looking forward to the day when she can proudly say— I'm a Nurse!

We will always remember with gratitude your understanding during the loss of our class- mate, For these things and your many efforts in directing our school, we thank you.

Wind whipped the white caps and starched uniforms of the solomn student nurses united in a common bond of grief as they stood in tribute by the graveside of their classmate and friend, Celia Potter. Her sudden death on February 23 while on affiliation for psychiatric train- ing at Dorothea Dix Hospital in Raleigh was shocking to all who knew her. 33 What can words express? Surely not our sense of loss, surely not an image of 'Pottie , yet we use this page to say that our memories of her are with us to stay. Who can forget her contagious enthusiasm, her warm person- ality, her boundless energy, her genuine love of living, and her sincere interest in people.

Sara Madren Jin Kent Testatrix 38 History Fifty-three green, anxious freshman approached the front door of Hill House on September 9, 1962. In the living room we were met by our big sisters and by those ''money mad seniors who were selling everything from sweatshirts to pencils. It seems that we were broken in quickly to the routine, for class began that first week. We were naive enough to believe that studying would lessen as we were here longer, but it seems that time is yet to come! That first day on the wards really left us bushed''—only two hours to do.a P.M. care and chart. What do you do if your patient refuses his backrub and doesn't want to talk? Later we practiced giving injections to.a sponge and then flu shots to our roommates. Oh, my arm! I'll never be able to move it again! ' Remember staying awake half the night because you had to get up at 4:30 A.M, to prep your first patient? Not all of our freshman year was spent increasing our knowledge of medical terms. The big problem was making money—seems that's the problem all three years. Car washes, selling candy, bake sales, along with a turkey raffle helped raise money. Seems too, that turkey was:won by one of our classmates, Dorm life-was.great that first year. Things to remember—Miss Sherron's famous last words, ''O.K. girls, cut those lights out or I'm going to report fou to Mrs...Burgess! ' Also; «watching ''As the World Turns with Izzie at Staff House. Screens which always seetned to fall out of Wyche House windows at 2:00 A.M. Those late, late birthday parties. Then came capping and responsibilities seemed to come from all sides. Our junior year consisted of special services, and more money making projects. Moving to Hill House was really a task... heard over and over, ''never knew I had so much junk, where am I going to put it? First scrubs in O,B. and O.R.—being called in the wee hours of the. morning, continual night and evening duty, the junior slump — which seems to still be hanging around, and.the Tuesday night ''Fugitive Fanclub . After two long hard years we finally became seniors. The Hill will be one of our main memories for here we found Ourselves';studied like mad, wrote diaries until we hated the word, tried to keep up with our keys, learned how to play cards, and had.no trouble getting dates. Also, at this time we were greatly sorrowed by the loss of one of our classmates. As spring progressed, remember the ear piercing fad that seemed to rage through our class? The White Cap Dance was especially exciting to us this year because our candidate, Mary Dunn, was crowned Miss White Cap of 1965, It has taken three years, but we finally succeeded. As graduation grows closer, we begin thinking of where we plan to work, state boards, and the future in general, Thinking back we are reminded of the fifty-three frightened girls who now number forty-six young women, who are ready to face the unknown with confidence and capability. 39 it iss Night ing ENEEAERE GAS GORRS immer gl and thus portrayed M at house of misery gh the ident, h ia Falconer was selected to serve as our Jul Class Pres ing ceremony. ppin at ca .

It is now a national senior honorary society recognizing initi- ative as a leader, outstanding nursing care, and achievement for a higher scholastic standard, Its members are tapped each year during a candlelight service, and they may be recognized by the minature gold Florence Nightingale Lamp which they wear. Annie A plaster figurehead that was won by a senior student at Watts in 1943 has become a tradition at Watts. Having no roommate, she presented it to the most deserving and closest roommates of the senior class. Now chipped and worn, she is cherished as a symbol of friend- ship to all roommates receiving her. This year Annie was presented as a third roommate to Penny Gresham and Julie Falconer, Through thick and thin the three have stayed together. Lois Cox Award MRS. RUBYSR ITER CE, sweithe Class of 1965, present to you the Lois Cox Award. Through your teaching as well as through your in- spiring example of the kind of nurse we would like to become—we have oft-times been encouraged to strive for a goal just a little higher. Your patience —though often tested, your thoughtfulness—sometimes un- noticed, and your heartfelt in- terest—sometimes seemingly un- appreciated, all combine to form ourrecipient ofthe Lois Cox Award. This award is given by the Sen- ior Class to the instructor whom they feel has contributed the most to their professional and personal growth. The Lois Cox Award was es- tablished by Mrs. Edith Brocker, Associate Dean, Duke University School of Nursing in loving mem- ory of her housemate, Miss Lois Cox; and in appreciation for what Watts Hospital did for Miss Cox during her illness. We, the class of 1965, shall long remember you with apprecia- tion and pride as Ruby Pierce, R.N., our choice for the Lois Cox Award. BOmMSBAM YiBiviasd Black Banding At last the time comes for the Juniors to receive their black bands and to become Seniors. It is a proud moment, bringing the past two years into focus and directing them into their final year. 43 Capping After having completed nine months of introductory nursing courses, the first year Watts stu- dents receive their caps. The in- spiration of the ceremony lingers long, as a reminder of the solemn pledge to serve humanity.
