Nursing Students to Take Trip; See Medical Practices Abroad
Four student nurses at the KU Medical Center will have a difficult time studying for finals as their thoughts drift toward adventures in western Europe and Central America.
Beverly Tjart, Baxter Springs junior, and Norma Roberts, Kansas City senior, will fly to Frankfurt, Germany, to attend the International Congress of Nurses. Marv Turner, Topeka junior, and Juliana Wallace, Kansas City junior, traveling to San Juan, Costa Rica, on a pilot project for the nursing education department, will study nursing.
"UNTIL THIS YEAR student nurses who were juniors or graduating seniors had to attend classes in the summer as part of their graduation requirements." Martha Pitel, director of nursing education, said.
The primary reason for this change is shown by the trips these four students will be making this summer, Prof. Pitel explained. It allows students to get more experience in a special field of interest, a chance to go to foreign countries and see what nursing is like there and to attend nursing conferences.

Taking advantage of a free summer and free travel expenses, Miss Tjart and Miss Roberts will leave New York June 14 for Frankfurt. The conference they will be represent ing KUMC at is one of the oldest held to discuss and define problems in any area. About 8,000 nurses will attend.
"THE DELEGATES will get together June 16-24 to define problems in nursing and hopefully come to several solutions," Miss Tjart said.
Miss Roberts said the actual purpose of the trip will be to learn how nursing in general can be improved and to bring back new and better ideas about the field.
After the conference is over, the two student nurses will travel through Germany, France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium and England. They will fly home from London on July 14.
WHILE THIS TOUR will be a pleasure trip in one way, they will visit hospitals, out-patient clinics, nursing homes, public health centers and nursing schools.
GOING TO SAN JOSE to study, Miss Turner and Miss Wallace will be the first KUMC nursing students to participate in an international exchange program.
