Campbell Being the first to consurrrmate any positive endeavor grants a particular individual or institution a greater uunount of respect and prestige than those who follow afterward. This concept rings true in every area of public re- lations. Brochures of various nursing schools consistently stress the accom- plished "firsts" that set them apart. The formation of a nurses' training school in Galveston, Texas, during the late nineteenth century established historical precedence in several areas. However, more important than claiming a fun- damental position in the annals of nursing education is the context within which the John Sealy Hospital Training School for Nurses fit into the over- all American nursing experience of the late nineteenth century. This article will explore the following questions: Where were nursing schools primarily located during this era? What dates marked the opening of pioneer training institutions in the western and southern regions of the country? What social, economic and political factors influenced the establishment of these training schools? What common challenges did they face? Finally, what was the significance behind the acceptance of the John Sealy Training School for Nurses by the University of Texas regents? The opening of a nursing school in Texas coincided with the establish- ment of a hospital and medical college in Galveston.

    ISLAND EMPIRE: THE INFLUENCE OF THE MACEO FAMILY IN GALVESTON Tabitha Nicole Boatman, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2014 APPROVED: Scott Belshaw, Committee Chair Chad Trulson, Committee Member Richard B. McCaslin, Committee Member Eric Fritsch, Chair of the Department of Criminal Justice Thomas Evenson, Dean of the College of Public Affairs and Community Service Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Boatman, Tabitha Nicole. Island Empire: The Influence of the Maceo Family in Galveston. Master of Science (Criminal Justice), August 2014, 127 pp., bibliography, 80 titles. From the 1920s until the 1950s, brothers, Sam and Rosario Maceo, ran an influential crime family in Galveston, Texas. The brothers’ success was largely due to Galveston’s transient population, the turbulent history of the island, and the resulting economic decline experienced at the turn of the 20th century. Their success began during Prohibition, when they opened their first club. The establishment offered bootlegged liquor, fine dining, and first class entertainment. After Prohibition, the brothers continued to build an empire on the island through similar clubs, without much opposition from the locals. However, after being suspected of involvement in a drug smuggling ring, the Maceos were placed under scrutiny from outside law enforcement agencies. Through persistent investigations, the Texas Rangers finally shut down the rackets in Galveston in 1957. Despite their influence through the first half of the 20th century, on the island and off the island, their story is largely missing from the current literature. Copyright 2014 by Tabitha Nicole Boatman ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my deepest appreciation to my thesis committee members, particularly Dr.

  • Utmb-President-Position-Profile.Pdf
    Opportunity and Challenge Profile Search for the President The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston Galveston, Texas The Board of Regents of The University of Texas System invites inquiries, nominations, and applications for the position of President of The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB). This is a tremendous opportunity for an experienced healthcare leader to guide the continuous evolution of a historic academic medical center with deep roots in the city of Galveston and across the state of Texas. Having recently completed a visionary strategic plan, The Road Ahead, the new President will join UTMB at a time of significant forward momentum. Reporting to the Chancellor of the University of Texas System, the President will serve as the highest executive of the UTMB Health enterprise. With purview over the UTMB Health System and UTMB’s entire academic enterprise, the President will provide strategic leadership and oversight of the institution’s clinical, educational, and related research activities—an entity with an estimated $3.3 billion annual statewide economic impact. Part of the University of Texas System and a member of the prestigious Texas Medical Center—the largest medical center in the world, UTMB is an integral part of the state’s healthcare fabric, and an institution dedicated to its longstanding mission to improve health for the people of Texas. UTMB opened in Galveston in 1891 as the nation’s first public medical school and hospital under unified leadership, a pioneer of its time.
