OPERATIONS Under Mr. Don Scoby's direction, the Pre-med Club helped students who were interested in medicine to learn more about the field. Doctors, nurses, and other lecturers told the members about their various professions. Some of the lecturers were student nurses from Seton School of Nursing, who spoke on the work and the rewards of nursing. Also, an X-ray technician and a laboratory technician told the members about their jobs. A heart surgeon discussed the various aspects of heart surgery. During visits to several hospitals in the region, the members observed operations and went on tours of the hospitals. These tours showed the students how a hospital was run and what the different hos- pital personnel did. By helping young people to learn more about medicine, the Pre-med Club is fulfilling its purpose. DR. KIRSCHNER SPEAKS to the Pre-Med Club about heart surgery.
