Why Won't Wynn Comment ?

More than 70 per cent of the nursing students at predominantly white schools in this state pass the state board examination to become licensed nurses each year. Approximately 50 per cent of the nursing students at predominantly Black institutions pass the exam each year. These statistics were released yesterday ina news report by WFMY-TV's reporter Bob Garner. Also in that report, the reporter said that UNC-G has the best record of passing nursing students in the state. Last year, A&T, according to Garner, had the worst record of all state-supported schools. UNC-G has a 95 per cent passing rate compared to A&T's embarrassing 17 per cent. Naomi Wynn, dean of the School of Nursing.has refused to talk with reporters from both the print and electronic media. This is nothing new to members of The Register who have failed to speak with the dean. Last year this reporter made numerous attempts to seek Dean Wynn. At that time, the nursing students were complaining about the conditions of the Nursing School. They protested to the chancellor, but to no avail. They then aired their complaints with The Register, Greensboro KKKOiiganizes In New York Daily News, and WFMY-TV. All of that happened last year.
