Washington, D.C. 20547. -i; There's something new at the University of North Carolina School of Nursing: the transfer student. ' She enters nursing school as a junior instead of as a freshman. She also studies under a new "integrated curriculum." Ten junior transfers were admitted last year; 32 were admitted this fall. The current junior class also includes 54 students who completed their pre-nursing courses here. Eventually all nursing students will begin the program as juniors. Before 1967, all nursing students came here as freshmen and were enrolled for four years. What is an integrated curriculum? It's a series of courses allowing a student to cut across specialty areas such as medical-surgical nursing, psychiatric nursing, maternal and child nursing, public health nursing. It focuses on general nursing rather than specialized nursing. Nursing Dean Lucy Conant refers to the curriculum as a "casserole." Instead of offering a student nurse a meat, then potatoes, then vegetables, the casserole curriculum gives her a heterogeneous course in learning. "In terms of the integrated curriculum, we're doing something now that a lot of nursing schools have talked about doing," Dean Conant says. "Nurses need to be specialized," Dean Conant concedes. "But specialization should come at some point beyond the basic nursing education. We need here to give a student a sound foundation. "We want the students to think about a patient's total nursing care rather than segments of care." Until now, a student nurse has been offered a mixture of general education and nursing education throughout her four years of nursing school. As the old program phases out, future nurses will spend their first two years on general education courses and the last two years with nursing courses and upper division electives. An innovation in the new nursing program for transfer students is the assignment of each student to a "continuity patient." As the student participates in care of a patient in the hospital, his home and in out-patient clinics, she maintains contact patient's family. with the froup of students.' to Dean Conant. according Nursing students not only work in a variety of health agencies and in homes, but they take physiology courses with pharmacy students, psychology, sociology and electives with general college students and science courses with other health careers students. The new nursing curriculum means UNC's Nursing School is now recruiting a "brand new The reference is to the science-oriented student in colleges and universities, junior colleges and community colleges. Pre-nursing requires a lot of science, both biological and social. "We want people who are bright academically and who enjoy and care about people and like to work with people," Dean Conant savs. "Many students reach college before they become serious about their future careers, se think appeal to this group. nursir. can The new curriculum does not isolate student nurses from typical campus life. Student nurses here are extremely active in campus affairs. In the future, student nurses will be housed with other University students rather than in a nurses' dormitory.

You may help to reveal the secrets of a Roman villa, an iron-age hill fort or the structure of a medieval town or Anglo-Saxon villa before they disappear. Expanding housing programs, city centre redevelopment and new highway projects in Britain today " have opened up many new possibilities for archaeological investigations. The digging program which is sponsored by the Assocation for Cultural Exchange offers the college student the opportunity to earn credits working on an international program and receive valuable training in archaeology. Volunteers first join a three-week seminar for training in British archaeology and spaces of grass, separated: by narrow bands of trees and bushes: It's a path imprinted with countless footprints of passing and lingering people.

It's being able to see all four sides' of " the Arb from just about any place in it. It's matchb'obks in the paths, and gum wrappers under a bench. ..It's a navy blue button under a bench-It's loving initials and tired obscenities carved on the trunk of an old tree. JVhen the sun goes down, the Arb changes from a showplace'of nature, to a wild haven for mystical jungle rites. -The dark shadows make it seem to be an endless wilderness of lurking beasts. These beasts are people moving with a definite purpose. The Arb at night is telling her that you don't know where you're going, knowing very well that you're headed for that certain bench under the magnolia tree. It's getting nearly trampled to death by a dozen dateless drunks. It's sitting on your favorite bench, only to find that someone before you has spilled beer all over it. It's laughter coming from behind trees and under bushes and down the path. It's the sound of something slowly rolling over dried leaves. It's holes dug at the foot of benches by writhing, passionate feet. Blankets and spreads and quilts and canvas and towels and overcoats are all parts of the night Arb. It's another world that's a million miles from here, but only about 100 feet from Franklin Street. Coffee Classicist Concerts Revocation of the water ordinance, besides setting car. washes and washing machines back into motion after the long drought,) has enabled Byron j Freeman, owner of the 1 Carolina Coffee Shop, to put his pet project into action. v Several months ago Freeman, a UNC music major, decided he wanted to buy some new sound equipment for the Coffee Shop. To justify his new sound equipment, Freeman has instigated a casual concert series. "Etude Hours," as the name implies, present classical music recorded from WPTF's Festival of Musics Works already aired include the Carmina Burana, as well as selections from Brahms, Poulenc, and Grofe. Besides justifying the new equipment, Freeman says, "half the time I hang around and listen so I thought I'd leave the door open . . . just for the hell of it." The door to the Carolina Coffee Shop is open from 8 to 11 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays for people interested in a little food, a little conversation, and a lot of music. The total cost of the program is $725, including round-trip air transportation from New York. Part scholarships are available to students with a B plus average. The Oxford Seminar which is July 2-August 3, will feature four tutors Paul Mellars, University of Sheffield; David Witehouse, University of Oxford; Desmond Collins, University of London; and Ruth Witehouse. The academic program at Oxford consists of 45 hours of classwork as well as field visits, museum visits and practical work. There will be social life accompanying the work at the Oxford Seminar. Students will live in Merton College alongside European and other American students studying English Literature, history, music and drama. Theater visits, concerts,. record recitals and other social activities- will be organized; ";, . , After the- seminar- the Dig will begin on August 3 and; run, through August 2. Students must take' part i in the - full? J ' seminar, however, to be eligible for the dig. Accomodations are frequently - rough on the dig, and diggers should be willing to ' forego some of the usual luxuries and comforts," the program warns. Most of the .j- work can be done by both men and women students, however. In the past students have joined digs on the palaeolithic in Suffolk, an Iron-age hill fort on the Welsh Marches, a Roman Palace near the South Coast of England, a Roman town near Stratford-on-Avon, an Anglo-Saxon town in Devon, Norman castles in Norfolk and Oxfordshire, and a deserted medieval village in Buckinghamshire. Participation is imited to students and recent graduates of four-year accredited colleges. Applicants should have a cumulative B average. An initial deposit of $100 is required on application, of which $25 is non-returnable unless the application is refused. To assure a place on the program, students should applv not later than Feb. 1, 1969. For further details students r v v should write Prof. Ian A.
