THE SCHOOL OF NURSING
THE SCHOOL OF NURSING OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND OFFERS ROTH general and fundamental education for students who wish to prepare for professional work in the broad field of nursing activities.
The School meets the needs of the following groups of students: CO High School graduates who desire to prepare themselves to become practitioners of professional nursing in hospitals and public health agencies; (2) registered nurses who have completed a three-year nursing program and who desire to bring up to full collegiate level their basic nursing preparation; (3) graduate students who desire to prepare themselves for teachers in schools of nursing and for super- visors in nursing services in specific clinical divisions.
The degrees include the Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing which is awarded upon the successful completion of the basic professional program and the program for registered nurses and the degree of Master of Science which is awarded upon completion of the graduate program. The degree of Master of Science with a major in Nursing is awarded by the Graduate School of the University.
HISTORY
The University of Maryland School of Nursing, the second school of nurs- ing to be founded in Maryland was organized in December, 1889, by Louisa Parsons, a student of Florence Nightingale, and a graduate of St. Thomas Hospital School in London, England. Because of her keen interest in Miss Parsons' new American School, Miss Nightingale designed for the students in this new school, the Nightingale cap which is still proudly worn by graduates of the University of Maryland School of Nursing.
In 1902 the original two year curriculum was extended to three years. For more than a generation, graduates of this growing School have served in the community, founded nursing schools in Maryland and other states, and partici- pated in professional organizations on a national and local level. In World Wars I and II, graduates of the School served on foreign soil with the Medical Units of the University of Maryland. Again during the Korean War, University of Maryland nurses answered the call to service by ministering to the sick and wounded in the Orient. In 1920 the School of Nursing became a separate unit of the University, although it continued to be administered as a hospital school.
In 1926 the University of Maryland instituted a five year combined aca- demic and nursing program. The establishment of this type of nursing pro- gram was in keeping with the trends in nursing education at that time. After completing two years of academic work in the College of Arts and Sciences and three years in the School of Nursing, the student received the Bachelor of Science degree and the diploma of Graduate in Nursing.
General Information
In May, 1952 a four year program was instituted, a Dean of the School of Nursing was appointed and the members of the faculty were accorded academic status. By this action the School of Nursing became a college in the University offering a curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
The growing needs of the southern region promulgated an interstate pact which was ratified by the legislatures of Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia. The University of Maryland School of Nursing was chosen, as one of the six universities, by the Southern Regional Educational Board to institute a graduate program in nursing.
The School of Nursing became a department of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland in March, 1954. Graduate programs in maternal and child nursing, medical-surgical nursing, psychiatric nursing, and nursing admin- istration are currently being offered.
MEMBERSHIP AND ACCREDITATION
The University of Maryland, which includes the School of Nursing with all of the other schools and colleges of the University, is a member of the Association of American Colleges and is accredited by the Middle States Asso- ciation of Colleges and Secondary Schools.
All programs of the School of Nursing, including Public Health Nursing, are accredited by the National League for Nursing.
The School of Nursing is an agency member of the Department of Bac- calaureate and Higher Degree Programs of the National League for Nursing.
Members of the graduating class who qualify may be elected to Phi Kappa Phi, a national fraternity in the University. Qualified students in nursing are also eligible for membership in the Pi Chapter of Sigma Theta Tau, a national honorary society of nursing.

EXPLANATION OF FEES
The Fixed Charges Fee is not a charge for tuition. It is a charge to help defray the cost of operating the University's physical plant, to pay administrative and clerical expenses and other costs which ordinarily would not be included as a cost of teaching personnel and teaching supplies.
Fees and Expenses
The Athletic Fee is charged for the support of the Department of Intercol- legiate Athletics. All students are eligible and all students are encouraged to participate in all of the activities of this department and to attend all contests in which they do not participate.
The Special Fee is used to pay interest on and amortize the cost of construction of the Student Union Building, the Activities Building, and the Swimming Pool.
The Student Activities Fee is a mandatory fee included at the request of the Student Government Association. It covers subscription to the Diamondback, student newspaper- the Old Line, literary magazine; the Terrapin, yearbook; class dues; and includes financial support for the musical and dramatic clubs and a cultural entertainment series.
The Infirmary Fee is charged for the support of the Student Health Service, but does not include expensive drugs or special diagnostic procedures. Expensive drugs will be charged at cost and special diagnostic procedures, such as X-ray, electro-cardiographs, basal metabolic rates, etc., will be charged at the lowest cost prevailing in the vicinity.
Students who register for the second semester but not for the first semester are required to pay the following additional fees: Athletic, $7.50; Student Activities, $8.00; Special, $10.00; Recreational Facilities Fee, $10.00; Infirmary, $2.50; Advisory and Testing, $5.00.
The Recreational Facilities Fee is paid into a fund which will be used to expand the recreational facilities on the College Park campus, especially the Student Union Building.
The Advisory and Testing Fee is charged to cover partially the cost of the University Counseling Center and the Freshman Testing Program.
The Health Fee on the Baltimore campus is charged to help defray the cost of maintenance of a health service. This service includes routine examinations and emergency care.
Each student is required to carry hospital insurance. Those students pre- senting satisfactory evidence that they have current and acceptable hospital insurance will pay no further charge. Those students without acceptable hos- pital insurance will be enrolled in Blue Cross and will be billed for the cost thereof*.
DEFINITION OF RESIDENCE AND NON-RESIDENCE
Students who are minors are considered to be resident students if at the time of their registration their parents have been domiciled in this State for at least one year.
*See page 18 for explanation as to the meaning of acceptable Hospital Insurance. 8
Fees and Expenses
The status of the residence of a student is determined at the time of his first registration in the University, and may not thereafter be changed by him unless, in the case of a minor, his parents move to and become legal residents of this State by maintaining such residence for at least one full year. How- ever, the right of the minor student to change from a non-resident status to resident status must be established by him prior to the registration period set for any semester.
Adult students are considered to be residents if at the time of their registra- tion they had been domiciled in this State for at least one year provided such residence has not been acquired while attending any school or college in Mary- land or elsewhere. Time spent on active duty in the armed services while sta- tioned in Maryland will not be considered as satisfying the one year period referred to above except in those cases in which the adult was domiciled in Maryland for at least one year prior to his entrance into the armed service and was not enrolled in any school during that period.
The word domicile as used in this regulation shall mean the permanent place of abode. For the purpose of this rule only one domicile may be main- tained.

GRADING
The scholastic standing of a student is recorded in terms of the following symbols: A, B, C, and D, passing; F, failure, I, Incomplete. Mark 'A" denotes superior scholarship; mark "B," good scholarship; "C," fair scholarship; and mark "D," passing scholarship.
In computing scholastic averages, numerical values are assigned as fol- lows: A-4; B-3; C-2; D-l; F-0.
A scholastic average of "C" is required for junior standing and for graduation. A student with a mark of "F" has failed and must repeat the entire course in order to receive credit for it. In case of a failure in a required course a student must enroll again in that subject the first time it is offered, unless excused by the Dean.
The Academic Probation Plan described in the General and Academic Regu- lations publication provides more detail about repeating courses.
A student doing unsatisfactory work will be counseled by the Dean or her Associates.
! The University reserves the right to request the withdrawal of a student who does not or cannot maintain the required standard of scholarship, or whose continuance in the University would be detrimental to his health, or to the health of others, or whose conduct is not satisfactory to the authorities of the University.
ATTENDANCE
Grades reflect the overall performance of the student, including his attendance in class.
Students are allowed no automatic "cuts" or absence from class.
Whenever a student has more than three absences from a class, exclusive from those included in academic regulations, the instructor is obligated to report such absences to the office of the Dean, School of Nursing.

A general "C" (2.0) average is required for graduation. The "C" average will be computed on the basis of the courses required by each student's curricu- lum. The average of transfer students and of those seeking combined degrees will be computed on the basis of the courses required by each student's curricu- lum and in satisfaction of the non-professional curriculum requirements of the college granting the degree. An overall average will also be computed to include all academic courses taken in the University as a basis for the award of honors and such other uses as may be deemed appropriate.
Each candidate for a degree must file a formal application in the Office of the Registrar at least eight weeks prior to the date she expects to complete his course of study. Candidates for degrees must attend a convocation at which degrees are awarded. Degrees are awarded in absentia only in exceptional cases.

Where individual responsibility for damage cannot be ascertained, the amount of charge for damages will be pro-rated among the occupants of the room in the dormitory in which the damage occurred.
Each student will be furnished a key for her room for which a deposit of $1.00 will be made. This deposit will be returned in exchange for the key at the end of the student's stay in the University dormitory.
LAUNDRY
The University does not provide laundry service. Each student is responsible for her own laundry. There are several reliable laundry concerns in College Park, or if the student prefers she may send her laundry home. It is also possible to make arrangements to rent towels and bed linen. Students may do personal laundry (not including bed linens) in the laundry rooms which are located in each dormitory.
MEALS
All students who live in permanent University dormitories must take their meals in the University Dining Hall.
Baltimore Campus
Louisa Parsons Hall, the student dormitory for the School of Nursing in Baltimore, offers comfortable living accommodations for the nursing students.

Applicants are subject to the approval of the Director of Admissions insofar as qualifications for admission to the University are concerned. All recipients are subject to the academic and non- academic regulations and requirements of the University.
Scholarships are awarded to young men and women based upon apparent academic ability and financial need. In making awards consideration is given to character, achievement, participation in student activities, and to other at- tributes which may indicate success in college. It is the intent of the committee to make awards to those qualified who might not otherwise be able to provide for themselves an opportunity for higher education.
The recipient of a scholarship or a grant is expected to make superior progress toward a degree.
The Committee on Scholarships and Grants-in-Aid reserves the right to review the scholarship program annually and to make adjustments in the amounts and recipients of the awards in accordance with the funds available and scholastic attainment.
The types of scholarships, grants and loan funds available are as follows:
FULL SCHOLARSHIPS
The University awards fifty-six full scholarships covering board, lodging, fixed charges, fees and books. Not more than twenty of these scholarships may be held by out-of-state students and at least twelve are reserved for women.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY GRANlb
inese grants are for fixed charges and are awarded by members or tne Legislature, three for each Senator and one for each member of the House of Delegates.

Social and Religious Life
SPECIAL ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIPS

ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS
Endowed scholarships and grants are supported by income from funds especially established for this purpose.

ndea student loans— The National Defense Education Act of 1958 pro- vides funds for student loans. A student may borrow in one year a sum not ex- ceeding $1,000 and during his entire course of study may borrow a sum not exceeding $5,000. The borrower must sign a note for the loan and agree to interest and repayment terms established by the University. Repayment of the loan begins one year after the borrower ceases to be a full time student and must be completed within ten years thereafter. No interest is charged on the loan until the beginning of the repayment schedule. Interest after that date is to be paid at the rate of 3 percent per annum.
The National Defense Education Act contains a provision which provides that up to fifty percent of a student loan plus interest may be cancelled in the event the borrower becomes a full time elementary or secondary school teacher. Such cancellation is to be at the rate of 10 percent a year to five years.
Extra-Curricular, Social and Religious Life
Organized student activities are recognized and encouraged. Opportunities are open in student government, sororities, clubs, civic and service organizations, subject matter organizations, and recreational organizations.

To round out the college experience there are many social functions occurring throughout the year.
^ 20
Counseling and Guidance
The All-Faith Memorial Chapel is one of the most beautiful structures of its kind in the nation. Within its shelter are housed the offices of chaplains, representing the major denominational bodies, and there are many opportunities for consultation with a minister representing the choice of faith. There are various religious clubs to which students may belong.
The Baltimore campus is located in an area which is accessible to a number of churches of the various denominations and representative clergy are available to students who may desire guidance.

BASIC PROFESSIONAL NURSING PROGRAM Philosophy and Purposes
The basic professional nursing program leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing is designed to prepare carefully selected women and men for professional nursing. The faculty of the School of Nursing recognizes nursing as a social institution and promotes a philosophy that students must live in an educational environment equal to their professional development. This educa- tional environment should contribute to the development of the individual as a person, a citizen, and a nurse. Upon completion of the program the grad- uate should be able to assume the responsibilities of a professional staff nurse in a hospital, a public health or other community health agency. Through the development of habits in critical and constructive thinking as well as gaining knowledge, understandings and skills in nursing, the graduate should become a contributing member of her community and the nursing profession.
The first two years of the program are devoted to studies in general educa- tion which are given on the College Park Campus. The courses include the physical, biological and social sciences which serve as a base for professional education. An introductory course in nursing is given to acquaint the student with information relating to the role of nursing in health programs and agencies. The effect of illness upon the individual, the family and the community is emphasized as well as the various institutions which provide health care.
During the first academic year, the student visits and observes in hospitals and other community health agencies in the College Park and Washington, D. C. areas. The historical aspects, principles and practices of nursing are in- cluded in the basic course. A vacation extends from the close of the regular college year following examinations to the beginning of the fall semester.*
The second year of the program, the student continues her studies in the biological and social sciences. Opportunity is offered to study the health needs of children at various developmental stages. Observational experience in nursery school of the University of Maryland is provided. Field trips are arranged to the various agencies and institutions which provide health services for children with specific health problems.
After the second academic year the student transfers to the Baltimore division of the School of Nursing. The next two years are devoted to the study of nursing in the various clinical areas, such as medicine, surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics, psychiatry and public health. Special attention is given to the study of the nursing care of patients with specific medical, emotional and social problems such as the care of patients with tuberculosis and other long term illnesses. Learning exper- iences are planned to assist the student to develop sympathetic understanding of human behavior and to develop skills in communication which will enable her to work effectively with the patient, his family and with her co-workers. Clinical instruction and practice are planned to enable the student to become proficient in giving effective nursing care to patients and their families.

COURSE REQUIREMENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY
Freshmen and Sophomores, American Civilization Program
The University considers that it is important for every student to achieve an appreciative understanding of this country, its history and its culture. It has, therefore, established a comprehensive program in American civilization. This program is also designed to provide the student with general educational background.
All students receiving a baccalaureate degree from the University of Mary- land must (except as specific exceptions are noted in printed curricula) obtain 24 semester hours of credit in the lower division courses of the American Civilization Program. Although the courses in the Program are prescribed generally, some choice is permitted, especially for students who demonstrate in classification tests good previous preparation in one or more of the required subjects.
The 24 semester hours in American civilization are as follows:
1. English (12 hours, Eng. 1, 2, and 3, 4 or 5, 6), American history (6 hours, H. 5, 6)? and American government (3 hours, G. & P. 1) are required subjects; however, students who qualify in one, two or all three of these areas by means of University administered tests will substitute certain elective courses. Through such testing a student may be released from 3 hours of English (9 hours would remain an absolute requirement) 3 hours of American history (3 hours remaining as an absolute requirement), and 3 hours of American government. Students released from 3 hours of English will take Eng. 21 instead of Eng. 1 and 2. Those released from 3 hours of history will take H. 56 instead of H. 5 and 6. Students who have been exempted from courses in English history, or American government may not take such courses for credit.
(See detailed description of academic regulation.)
Physical Education
All undergraduate women students classified academically as freshmen or sophomores, who are registered for more than six semester hours of credit, are required to enroll in and successfully complete four prescribed courses in physical education for a total of four semester hours of credit. The suc- cessful completion of these courses is a requirement for graduation. These courses must be taken by all eligible students during the first two years of attendance at the University, whether or not they intend to graduate. Trans- fer students who do not have credit in these courses, or their equivalent, must complete them or take them until graduation, whichever occurs first.

GRADUATE PROGRAM Purpose
The Graduate Program in Nursing leading toward the degree of Master of Science in Nursing is designed primarily to prepare registered nurses (1) in administration in nursing education and nursing services (2) as teachers and nursing service heads in the areas of maternal and child health, medical and surgical nursing or psychiatric nursing.
Requirements for Admission
Admission to the graduate program in nursing, requires the applicant to be a registered nurse who has completed an undergraduate degree with academic standing which is recognized by the Graduate School of the University of Maryland. In addition, the applicant must have clinical experience in medical and surgical nursing, psychiatric nursing, maternal and child nursing, and public health nursing including field experience comparable to the requirements in the basic undergraduate nursing program at the University of Maryland.
Minimum Residence
A residence of at least two semesters at this institution is required.
Advancement to Candidacy
Each prospective candidate for a Master's degree is required to make appli- cation for admission to candidacy not later than the date on the calendar for the semester in which the degree is sought (see graduate calendar which appears in graduate catalog). He must have completed at least 12 semester hours of graduate work at the University of Maryland. An average grade of "B" in all major and minor subjects is the minimum requirement.
Curriculum Requirements
Requirements for the Master of Science degree awarded by the Graduate School include the satisfactory completion of at least thirty semester hours of graduate work. The thirty hour program includes twenty-four semester hours of course work and six semester hours for the thesis. At least twelve semester hours must be taken in the major field, and at least eight semester hours must be taken in the minor field. It is required that at least twelve semester hours of course work be taken in courses numbered in the catalog as 200 courses. Graduate credits for courses completed are not acceptable for transfer unless these courses have been given prior approval by the University of Maryland, and only after the student has been admitted to the Graduate School.
35
Graduate Program
Thesis
A thesis representing research in the major field must be approved by the adviser of the student and presented to the Dean of the Graduate School as a partial requirement for the Master of Science degree. Final approval of the thesis is given by oral examination by the committee appointed by the Dean of the Graduate School. The original copy of the thesis must be deposited in the office of the Graduate School not later than the date specified in the catalog of the Graduate School.
Learning Experiences
Through graduate study the student broadens and deepens understandings built first upon knowledge and then greater understanding of a particular specialty of study and work. Having the privilege of studying with graduate students in other disciplines, the graduate student in nursing has opportunities to transfer knowledge from other areas to enrich her understandings in her own field of specialty. The graduate student is given opportunity to learn to pursue, evaluate and apply results of research in nursing in order to find better ways of improving patient care.
The extensive clinical facilities of the University of Maryland Hospital and associated institutions provide an excellent climate where this dynamic learning can occur. Seminars, workshops, and institutes also provide opportunities for extending the scope of understanding of the graduate student. Depending upon the functional interest, the student receives practice in teaching or supervision under guidance.

THE SCHOOL OF NURSING OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND OFFERS BOTH general and fundamental education for students who wish to prepare for professional work in the broad field of nursing activities.
The School meets the needs of the following groups of students: CO High School graduates who desire to prepare themselves to become practitioners of professional nursing in hospitals and public health agencies; (2) registered nurses who have completed a three-year nursing program and who desire to bring up to full collegiate level their basic nursing preparation; (3) graduate students who desire to prepare as teachers in schools of nursing and as supervisors in nursing services in specific clinical divisions.
The degrees include the Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing which is awarded upon the successful completion of the basic professional program and the program for registered nurses, and the degree of Master of Science which is awarded upon completion of the graduate program. The degree of Master of Science with a major in Nursing is awarded by the Graduate School of the University.
HISTORY
The University of Maryland School of Nursing, the second school of nurs- ing to be founded in Maryland, was organized in December, 1889, by Louisa Parsons, a student of Florence Nightingale and a graduate of St. Thomas Hospital School in London, England. Because of her keen interest in Miss Parsons' new American School, Miss Nightingale designed for the students in this new school the Nightingale cap which is still proudly worn by graduates of the University of Maryland School of Nursing.
In 1902 the original two year curriculum was extended to three years. For more than a generation, graduates of this growing School have served in the community, founded nursing schools in Maryland and other states, and partici- pated in professional organizations on a national and local level. In World Wars I and II, graduates of the School served on foreign soil with the Medical Units of the University of Maryland. Again during the Korean War, University of Maryland nurses answered the call to service by ministering to the sick and wounded in the Orient. In 1920 the School of Nursing became a separate unit of the University, although it continued to be administered as a hospital school.
In 1926 the University of Maryland instituted a five year combined aca- demic and nursing program. The establishment of this type of nursing pro- gram was in keeping with the trends in nursing education at that time. After completing two years of academic work in the College of Arts and Sciences and three years in the School of Nursing, the student received the Bachelor of Science degree and the diploma of Graduate in Nursing.
In May, 1952 a four year program was instituted, a Dean of the School of Nursing was appointed and the members of the faculty were accorded academic

status. By this action the School of Nursing became a college in the University- offering a curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
The growing needs of the southern region promulgated an interstate pact which was ratified by the legislatures of Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia. The University of Maryland School of Nursing was chosen, as one of the six universities, by the Southern Regional Educational Board to institute a graduate program in nursing.
The School of Nursing became a department of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland in March, 1954. Graduate programs in maternal and child nursing, medical-surgical nursing, psychiatric nursing, and nursing admin- istration are currently being offered.

EXPLANATION OF FEES
The Fixed Charges Fee is not a charge for tuition. It is a charge to help defray the cost of operating the University's physical plant, to pay administrative and clerical expenses and other costs which ordinarily would not be included as a cost of teaching personnel and teaching supplies.
The Athletic Fee is charged for the support of the Department of Intercol- legiate Athletics. All students are eligible and all students are encouraged to participate in all of the activities of this department and to attend all contests in which they do not participate.
The Special Fee is used to pay interest on and amortize the cost of construction of the Student Union Building, the Activities Building, and the Swimming Pool.
The Student Activities Fee is a mandatory fee included at the request of the Student Government Association. It covers subscription to the Diamondback, student newspaper; the Old Line, literary magazine; the Terrapin, yearbook; class dues; and includes financial support for the musical and dramatic clubs and a cultural entertainment series.
The Infirmary Fee is charged for the support of the Student Health Service, but does not include expensive drugs or special diagnostic procedures. Expensive drugs will be charged at cost and special diagnostic procedures, such as X-ray, electro-cardiographs, basal metabolic rates, etc., will be charged at the lowest cost prevailing in the vicinity.
Students who register for the second semester but not for the first semester are required to pay the following additional fees: Athletic, $10.00; Student Activities, $8.00; Special, $7.50; Recreational Facilities Fee, $12.50, Infirmary, $2.50; Advisory and Testing, $5.00.

The Advisory and Testing Fee is charged to cover partially the cost of the University Counseling Center and the Freshman Testing Program.
The Health Fee on the Baltimore campus is charged to help defray the cost of maintenance of a health service. This service includes routine examinations and emergency care.
Each student is required to carry hospital insurance. Those students pre- senting satisfactory evidence that they have current and acceptable hospital insurance will pay no further charge. Those students without acceptable hos- pital insurance will be enrolled in Blue Cross and will be billed for the cost thereof*.
DEFINITION OF RESIDENCE AND NON-RESIDENCE
Students who are minors are considered to be resident students if at the time of their registration their parents have been domiciled in this State for at least one year.
The status of the residence of a student is determined at the time of his first registration in the University, and may not thereafter be changed by him unless, in the case of a minor, his parents move to and become legal residents of this State by maintaining such residence for at least one full year. How- ever, the right of the minor student to change from a non-resident status to resident status must be established by him prior to the registration period set for any semester.
Adult students are considered to be residents if at the time of their registra- tion they had been domiciled in this State for at least one year provided such residence has not been required while attending any school or college in Mary- land or elsewhere. Time spent on active duty in the armed services while sta- tioned in Maryland will not be considered as satisfying the one year period referred to above except in those cases in which the adult was domiciled in Maryland for at least one year prior to his entrance into the armed service and was not enrolled in any school during that period.
The word domicile as used in this regulation shall mean the permanent place of abode. For the purpose of this rule only one domicile may be main- tained.

Room reservations not claimed by students on their respective registration days will be cancelled. Rooms will be held by special request until after classes begin providing the Dean of Women's office is notified by the first day of registration. Room reservation deposits for the fall semester will not be refunded if the cancellation is received later than July 15.
Applications for rooms are acted upon only when a student has been fully admitted academically to the University.
It is understood that all housing and board arrangements which are made for the fall semester are binding for the spring semester.
A student who lives in the dormitory must have meals at the University Dining Hall and the Dining Hall fee is paid at the same time that the room rent is collected.
EQUIPMENT
Students assigned to dormitories should provide themselves with single blankets, sheets, pillow cases, a pillow, towels, a laundry bag, a waste paper basket and a study lamp. The individual student assumes responsibility for all dormitory property assigned to her. Any damage done to the property other than that which results from ordinary wear and tear will be charged to the student concerned. Where individual responsibility for damage cannot be ascertained, the amount of charge for damages will be pro-rated among the occupants of the room in the dormitory in which the damage occurred.
Each student will be furnished a key for her room for which a deposit of '$1.00 will be made. This deposit will be returned in exchange for the key sat the end of the student's stay in the University dormitory.
LAUNDRY
The University does not provide laundry service. Each student is responsible for her own laundry. There are several reliable laundry concerns in College Park, or if the student prefers she may send her laundry home. It is also possible to make arrangements to rent towels and bed linen. Students may do personal laundry (not including bed linens) in the laundry rooms which are located in each dormitory.
MEALS

Students are requested to bring their own bedspreads, an extra blanket, bureau scarves, small rugs and a laundry bag. The individual student assumes responsibility for all dormitory property assigned to her. Any damage done to the property other than that which results from ordinary wear and tear will be charged to the student concerned.
All undergraduate students will be required to live in the Louisa Parsons Hall unless they live at home with their own parents or close relatives. Married students may arrange to live off campus with their husbands if this proves a more satisfactory arrangement.
Meals may be purchased at University cafeterias or in nearby restaurants.
Student Health and Welfare
STUDENT HEALTH — COLLEGE PARK CAMPUS
The University recognizes its responsibility for safeguarding the health of its students. All new undergraduate students are required to undergo a thorough physical examination prior to their registration. A well-equipped infirmary is available for the treatment of sick or injured students, and a nurse is on duty at all hours.
All dormitories, off-campus houses, sorority and fraternity houses are inspected periodically by the Student Health Service to make certain that proper sanitary conditions are maintained.
Group Accident Insurance, issued by a national company, is available to students on a voluntary basis.
STUDENT HEALTH — BALTIMORE CAMPUS
The Health Office is located on the second floor of the Out-Patient Depart- ment. Health Service is available to junior and senior students. Vaccinations and immunizations as specified (smallpox, typhoid and tetanus) on health form are to have been completed before the beginning of the junior year. Certificates or certified statements for the specified vaccinations and immunizations are to be presented to the Health Office when the student registers on the Baltimore campus.
All junior students undergo a physical examination including chest X-ray and routine blood studies. This examination is repeated annually or more often if indicated.
The student and/or her parent or guardian will be responsible for financial arrangements necessary for hospitalization.
17 ►
Scholarships and Grants-In-Aid
Evidence of acceptable insurance coverage for hospitalization is required when the student enrolls as a junior on the Baltimore Campus. Blue Cross membership will be required and included in costs if evidence of acceptable hospitalization is not available at time of registration.
Acceptable coverage may be interpreted to mean allowances made by insur- ance companies which are comparable to costs existing at University Hospital at time of enrollment.
Scholarships and Grants-In-Aid
All requests for information concerning scholarships and grants-in-aid should be addressed to the Director of the Office of Scholarships and Grants-in-Aid, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland. Regulations and procedures for the award of scholarships are formulated by the faculty Committee on Scholarships and Grants-in-Aid.
The Board of Regents of the University authorizes the award of a limited number of scholarships each year to deserving students. All scholarships and grants for the undergraduate departments of the University at College Park are awarded by a faculty committee. Applicants are subject to the approval of the Director of Admissions insofar as qualifications for admission to the University are concerned. All recipients are subject to the academic and non- academic regulations and requirements of the University.
Scholarships are awarded to young men and women based upon apparent academic ability and financial need. In making awards consideration is given to character, achievement, participation in student activities, and to other at- tributes which may indicate success in college. It is the intent of the committee to make awards to those qualified who might not otherwise be able to provide for themselves an opportunity for higher education.
The recipient of a scholarship or a grant is expected to make superior progress toward a degree.
The Committee on Scholarships and Grants-in-Aid reserves the right to review the scholarship program annually and to make adjustments in the amounts and recipients of the awards in accordance with the funds available and scholastic attainment.
The types of scholarships, grants and loan funds available are as follows:
FULL SCHOLARSHIPS
The University awards fifty-six full scholarships covering board, lodging, fixed charges, fees and books. Not more than twenty of these scholarships may be held by out-of-state students and at least twelve are reserved for women. Scholastic achievement and participation in student activities are given primary consideration in the award of these scholarships.
UNIVERSITY GRANTS
The University awards to deserving and qualified secondary school gradu- ates a limited number of grants covering fixed charges only.

STUDENT LOANS
ndea student loans— The National Defense Education Act of 1958 pro- vides funds for student loans. A student may borrow in one year a sum not ex- ceeding $1,000 and during his entire course of study may borrow a sum not exceeding $5,000. The borrower must sign a note for the loan and agree to interest and repayment terms established by the University. Repayment of the loan begins one year after the borrower ceases to be a full time student and must be completed within ten years thereafter. No interest is charged on the loan until the beginning of the repayment schedule. Interest after that date is to be paid at the rate of 3 percent per annum.
The National Defense Education Act contains a provision which provides that up to fifty percent of a student loan plus interest may be cancelled in the event the borrower becomes a full time elementary or secondary school teacher. Such cancellation is to be at the rate of 10 percent a year to five years.
Extra-Curricular, Social and Religious Life
Organized student activities are recognized and encouraged. Opportunities are open in student government, sororities, clubs, civic and service organizations, subject matter organizations, and recreational organizations.
The Student Government Association represents all students and operates under an approved constitution and by-laws. The Associated Women Students, in cooperation with the Dean of Women is concerned with matters pertaining to women students.
Five student publications are published with faculty guidance and the general supervision of the Committee on Student Publications and Communi- cations.

Counseling and Guidance
Many clubs and societies, with literary, art, music, cultural, scientific, social and other special objectives function at the University. Some of these are strictly student organizations; others are conducted jointly by students and members of the faculty.
The All-Faith Memorial Chapel is one of the most beautiful structures of its kind in the nation. Within its shelter are housed the offices of chaplains, representing the major denominational bodies, and there are many opportunities for consultation with a minister representing the choice of faith. There are various religious clubs to which students may belong.
The Baltimore campus is located in an area which is accessible to a number of churches of the various denominations and representative clergy are available to students who may desire guidance.
A Student Union Board has been organized in the Baltimore Union. This Executive Board represents the schools on the Baltimore campus as well as the students living in the Union Building. Their functions are to establish social, recreational and educational programs as they pertain to the Baltimore Union for the students in the professional schools.
To round out the college experience there are many social functions occurring throughout the year.

BASIC PROFESSIONAL NURSING PROGRAM
Philosophy and Purposes
The basic professional nursing program leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing is designed to prepare carefully selected women and men for professional nursing. The faculty of the School of Nursing recognizes nursing as a social institution and promotes a philosophy that students must live in an educational environment equal to their professional development. This educa- tional environment should contribute to the development of the individual as a person, a citizen, and a professional nurse. Upon completion of the program the graduate should be able to assume the responsibilities of a professional staff nurse in a hospital, a public health or other community health agency. Through the development of habits in critical and constructive thinking as well as gaining knowledge, understandings and skills in nursing, the graduate should become a contributing member of her community and the nursing profession.
The first two years of the program are devoted to studies in general educa- tion which are given on the College Park Campus. The courses include the physical, biological and social sciences which serve as a base for professional education. An introductory course in nursing is given to acquaint the student with information relating to the role of nursing in health programs and agencies. The effect of illness upon the individual, the family and the community is emphasized as well as the various institutions which provide health care.
During the first academic year, the student visits and observes in hospitals and other community health agencies in the College Park and Washington, D. C. areas. The historical aspects, principles and practices of nursing are in- cluded in the basic course. A vacation extends from the close of the regular college year following examinations to the beginning of the fall semester.*
The second year of the program, the student continues her studies in the biological and social sciences. Opportunity is offered to study the health needs of children at various developmental stages. Observational experience in nursery school of the University of Maryland is provided. Field trips are arranged to the various agencies and institutions which provide health services for children with specific health problems.
After the second academic year the student transfers to the Baltimore division of the School of Nursing. The next two years are devoted to the study of nursing in the various clinical areas, such as medicine, surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics, psychiatry and public health. Special attention is given to the study of the nursing care of patients with specific medical, emotional and social problems such as the care of patients with tuberculosis and other long term illnesses. Learning exper- iences are planned to assist the student to develop sympathetic understanding of human behavior and to develop skills in communication which will enable her to work effectively with the patient, his family and with her co-workers. Clinical instruction and practice are planned to enable the student to become proficient in giving effective nursing care to patients and their families.

A total of 128 semester credits are required for the B.S. in Nursing. A mini- mum of 30 semester hours must be completed in residence for a baccalaureate de- gree. Credit earned through University College is residence credit.
Public Health Field Experience
Due to the maturity and background of the registered nurse student, eight weeks of public health field experience in Anne Arundel County, Montgomery or Prince George's County is required rather than the thirteen weeks which is re- quired in the basic collegiate program. Registered nurses who have been em- ployed in the public health nursing or have had supervised experience as a stu- dent, should submit an official record of this experience for evaluation.

COURSE REQUIREMENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY
Freshmen and Sophomores, American Civilization Program
The University considers that it is important for every student to achieve an appreciative understanding of this country, its history and its culture. It has, therefore, established a comprehensive program in American civilization. This program is also designed to provide the student with general educational background.
| All students receiving a baccalaureate degree from the University of Mary-
land must (except as specific exceptions are noted in printed curricula) obtain 24 semester hours of credit in the lower division courses of the American Civilization Program. Although the courses in the Program are prescribed generally, some choice is permitted, especially for students who demonstrate in classification tests good previous preparation in one or more of the required subjects.
.!} The 24 semester hours in American civilization are as follows:
I
1. English (12 hours, Eng. 1, 2, and 3, 4 or 5, 6), American history (6
hours, H. 5, 6), and American government (3 hours, G. & P. 1) are required subjects; however, students who qualify in one, two or all three of these areas by means of University administered tests will substitute certain elective courses. Through such testing a student may be released from 3 hours of English (9 hours would remain an absolute requirement) 3 hours of American history (3 hours remaining as an absolute requirement), and 3 hours of American I government. Students released from 3 hours of English will take Eng. 21
instead of Eng. 1 and 2. Those released from 3 hours of history will take H. 56 instead of H. 5 and 6. Students who have been exempt from courses in English, History, or American government may not take such courses for credit.
| (See detailed description of academic regulation.)
Physical Education
All undergraduate women students classified academically as freshmen or sophomores, who are registered for more than six semester hours of credit, are required to enroll in and successfully complete four prescribed courses in physical education for a total of four semester hours of credit. The suc- cessful completion of these courses is a requirement for graduation. These courses must be taken by all eligible students during the first two years of attendance at the University, whether or not they intend to graduate. Trans- fer students who do not have credit in these courses, or their equivalent, must complete them or take them until graduation, whichever occurs first.

Final approval of the thesis is given by oral examination by the committee appointed by the Dean of the Graduate School. The original copy of the thesis must be deposited in the office of the Graduate School not later than the date specified in the catalog of the Graduate School.
Learning Experiences
Through graduate study the student broadens and deepens understandings built first upon knowledge and then greater understanding of a particular specialty of study and work. Having the privilege of studying with graduate students in other disciplines, the graduate student in nursing has opportunities to transfer knowledge from other areas to enrich her understandings in her own field of specialty. The graduate student is given opportunity to learn to pursue, evaluate and apply results of research in nursing in order to find better ways of improving patient care.
The extensive clinical facilities of the University of Maryland Hospital and associated institutions provide an excellent climate where this dynamic learning can occur. Seminars, workshops, and institutes also provide opportunities for extending the scope of understanding of the graduate student. Depending upon the functional interest, the student receives practice in teaching or supervision under guidance.
