JOSEPH S SCHOOL OF NURSING GUELPH LEARNING RESOURCE CENTRE DOOM CAMPUS CONESTOGA COLLEGE A career for young men that is gaining in popularity is that of male nurse.

NURSES HIT THE PRESS Five Jamaican girls got their first glimpse of Ontario at the Department of the Provincial Secretary and Citizenship reception centre at Malton Airport. About to embark on a two year training stint in Ontario schools, the girls will study at the Orillia Soldiers Memorial Hospital School of Nursing, at St. Joseph’s Hospital School of Nursing in Guelph, and at the Ryerson Polytechnical Institute course of nursing Toronto. The girls are the second group to arrive in Ontario under an international experimental program sponsored by the Canadian-Jamaican Partnership Foundation since 1970.

Of all the realities man has come upon in his historical pilgrimage no reality has been deemed more worth preserving than life. Life is preserved when men are faithful to themselves, to others and to life’s Source. Faithfulness to yourself can mean developing your talents so that your life is what God intended it to be. Faithfulness to others can be expressed by living in peace, love and compassion with all. Realize always that it is very difficult to know any man, for our judg- ments of him are always in relationship to our own interests. Faithfulness to God will not occur if He is found on the border of human experience. He must be the centre of it. This can only happen if you communicate to Him through prayer. May such faithfulness develop as you continue to acquaint yourself with the Profession of Nursing. A Christian Nursing Education has been available to you. Use it faithfully. May God bless you Graduates and Students of 1972. Miss G. Ustrzycki, Director, School of Nursing. Miss B.

Dr. Carere 8 k Sr. Paula Sr. Bonaventure Mrs. Favro Administrator Director of Nursing Assistant Director of Nursing Dear Graduates: Each year students graduate from schools of nursing and begin their profession of caring for the sick. They assist people into the world at their birth, care for them during their illnesses, and remain with them at their death. What makes them choose this profession, and what motivates and strengthens them to live it each day? An awareness of why they are nursing will enable them to demonstrate the truth they have discovered and help them achieve their goal more fully. The role of the nurse is to help patients find peace and security through the orientation to life and death. She does this by continually deepening her own faith in, and conviction of God’s personal love for her. By helping patients, through strong nurse-patient relationships, they reach the same awareness of God’s love for them. The nurse, by servicing her fellowmen through her work, feels that she gains much personal benefit. In this way, they help her reach her destiny of union with all men in Christ. She believes with Chardin that “ man can never reach the blazing center of the universe simply by living more and more for himself but by assisting people in finding that which is more important to them - eternal happiness”. In this, the fulfillment of the role of the nurse is complete. God Bless You! Sister M. Paula, Executive Director. 9 HOUSEKEEPING STAFF A LOVELY LIGHT A candle’s but a simple thing: It starts with just a piece of string, Yet dipped and dipped with patient hand It gathers wax upon the strand. Until complete and snowy white It gives at last a lovely light. Life seems so like that bit of string: Each deed we do a simple thing. Yet day by day if on life’s strand We work with patient heart and hand. It gathers joy, makes dark days bright, And gives at last a lovely light.

Young VALEDICTORY ADDRESS - Elaine Antaya A statement by Benjamin Disraeli, noted 19th Century English stateman and writer, that “the secret of success is constancy to purpose” could very well apply to the members of this graduating class. Change from ignorance to knowledge, from clumsiness to skill, is a delightful experience. We have been fortunate to have had an opportunity for an education that has brought us both knowledge and skill. Society is crippled when the talents of a substantial portion of its members are not effectively utilized. It is generally agreed that women account for the largest pool of untapped resources in our country. Some people are convinced that the world desperately needs the unique contribution of the feminine potential in order to restore a sense of balance ... to give a mechanized world what it seems so hungry for . the human qualities on which the spirit is nourished. It is therefore within the power of women to be effective as persons, especially in their realm of influence which is the spiritual and the moral. The mature woman in her honesty, can draw out the best in people. She can make a unique contribution towards the humanization of an impersonal suffocating world. Over the years, some educational systems, although emphasizing the development of the human person, have chosen to serve particular social segments rather than the cause of humanity.
