How do they feel about hav-
ing to leave their homes and
jobs and what do they have to
say about how they are being
treated in the Army?
Officers and men alike agreed
they signed up in the Guard to
do a job and now they are
doing it. Their financial sacri-
flee in some cases has been
great. they miss the home life,
they don't care too much for
Army food. but their barracks
are comfortable and they are
keeping very busy.
In short, their morale is high
and they are slightly embar-
raised by the national publicity
given to complaints from Fort
Lewis, Wash, of poor treatment
to the 32d Wisconsin Division.

Along with the nursing litera-
ture that is regularly sent to prin-
cipals, class sponsors and counsel
lors throughout the state, Dean
Lowe and Mrs. Mays, with the CO.
operation of the MVC Public Re-
lations Office, are planning visits
to schools in this area to explain
the nursing program to prospective
enrollees.
The visits will also serve to
clarity certain misconceptions
nursing trainees have evidenced
toward successful naturalization in
the course, Dean Lowe stated. "Be-
cause it is not four-year program,
some trainees have wrongly con-
cluded that scholastic performance
needed for the successful compile
ton of four-year degree program
is not of Importance in the nurs.:

ton elaborated.
Actually, the converse is true.
Because of the accelerated nature
of the nursing program, competent
scholastic background and perform
ance are of the utmost importance.
Practical Nurse training is by no

Practical Nursing at MVC is a
one-year course, with the trainees

You do not have to forget
