Work with Students Accents Long Career ByJohnBecton After 40 years of nursing, Mary B. Campbell says, "The greatest satisfaction has been woAdng with students.” For the past 25 years, Campbell, who is retiring today, has been director of the Anesthesia Program for Nurses. She began her nursing career at Duke as a general duty nurse 1937-39. “They were adding the wing between the hospital and Baker House at that time," she recalled. "I've seen every wing added. I grew up with the place." Alumna and Diiector Campbell returned in 1942 to enter the nursing anesthesia program and was a staff nurse anesthetist until he| appointment as director of the training program. In 1962, she founded th0 Anesthesia Alumnae Association and has served as president secretary, treasurer and trustee at various times. The association sponsors ^ a homecoming weekend every two years, featuring workshops, seminars and renewing of old acquaintances. The weekends are "very well attended," Campbell said, and draw former students from across the nation. Good Reports about Grads Since the program began in 1931, there have l^n 281 graduates, and 194 of these have completed the prograrfi during the years Campbell has been director. "We get many compliments on the work of our graduates," she said. "We have a good program because we have so much to offer at Duke. Students get to observe many kinds of cases, we have a good nurse anesthetist staff, and we have good facilities such as the medical center library and the bookstore." She explained that these facilities Were especially important because the anesthesia program includes a significant amount of didactic work. AFTER 40 YEARS—Mary B. Campbell is being,honored at a reception this evening and is beginning her retirement tomorrow.
