Students who intend to use the computer vet this quarter must log in their accounts belore May 5. Those who do not sign in to the system and thereby lose their accounts, must report to Computing Services TE209 to re-establish I heir privileges.

Weber State nursing students must spend three weeks working in a hospital before they graduate. This is a requirement of a recently established preceptor program. Students in the associate degree nursing program spend two years working through different "rotations"or periods when their education emphasizes .specific areas of nursing care. The preceptor program involves the last three weeks of the student's second medical-surgical rotation, winter or spring quarter of their second year. Nurses at area hospitals serve as preceptors (role models) for the students. The program began last year as a pilot study and has already been incorporated into the regular curriculum, according to Diane Baughman, curriculum director and medical-surgical instructor. Nurses all over the nation will be honored Monday, May 6, on National Nurses' Day. -J,; UVJUJ y W'lAAJl!iJlMs.'w i in nnn rTTTTn i dJtliJuuuLi LyJl3 mm A SPECIAL PROGRAM FOR NEW GRADUATES GAfl HELP YOU INTO A NEW CHRYSLER OR PLYMOUTH.
