EDUCATION ABROAD:
Ten To Study in England Under 'U' Plan
By MICHAEL OLIMCK I ^~" ~~i ' ~~~ I

By JUDITH SATTLER
Because the need for registered
rses in the United States is
tical, nurses training is under-
ing a number of changes.
En 1957, there was a shortage
70,000 registered nurses in the
tion, and of 5,000 in Michigan,
cording to a study done at that
ne. The shortage has steadily
creased since then.
Hospitals are becoming increas-
;ly understaffed because of in-
ased use of health insurance
d other health services, which
ye created new fields for nurs-
g, and expansion of hospital
:ilities and increasing use of
mplicated equipment.
Salaries Discouraging,
Low salaries and irregular hours
ad to discourage women from
tering the field. So, although
ore 'women begin nursing every
ar the demand continues to
ow faster than the supply.
This demand for more nursing
rsonnel is being met by changes
the type of training offered.
Two year nursing programs, as
quick way to train women to fill
irsing posts, have been endorsed
r Prof. W. T. Sanger, chancellor
the Virginia Medical College,
ao did a study on nursing in
ichigan. These programs, usually
ugnt at junior colleges, are im-
oved by cooperation between

hospital schools and the college,
Prof. Sanger said.

Definite Need
There is a definite need for per-
sons trained in technical skills
who could do more routine work,
according to Prof. Norma Mar-
shall, of the University nursing
school. In the future, two years of
training may become more com-
mon, she said.
Prof. Sanger reports an unusual
type of nursing training whichis
used at the Mercy Central School
of Nursing, in which a 27-month
course is followed by a nine-month
voluntary internship. The intern-
ship provides "educationally ori-
enter work experience" and gives
good preparation for both basic
nursing and superintendent work,
he said.
Hospital Schools
Hospital schools usually give a
three-year course leading to a
nursing diploma; this type of
training is most common, accord-
ing to Prof. Marshall. While pro-
viding more intensive practical
training, the program does not
give the trainee any liberal arts
education.
Some nursing educators think
this type of training could. be
given more quickly, and there was
discussion about shortening it at
the recent American Nursing As-
sociation convention.

The four-year program, offered
at universities and colleges, gives
the students both a nursing di-
ploma and a baccalaureate degree.
Sanger Suggests
In his report, Prof. Sanger sug-
gested that women with four
years of training be given more
administrative or teaching posts,
and be relieved of non-nursing
tasks. Others think that the four-
year program is basic nursing
training only, and that teaching
or administration requires post-
graduate study.
Prof. Sanger recommended more
graduate programs in nursing, to
prepare women more adequately
for teaching, administration, pub-
lic health nursing and research.
Such a graduate program is now
being developed at the University,
while Wayne State University al-
ready has one.
To do those jobs which do not
require technical training, more
and more practical nurses and
nurses' aides are being usedin
hospitals, because of the short-
age of registered nurses, accord-
ing to Prof. Marshall. Aides can
be trained on the job, and practi-
cal nurses can be trained in six
months.
No. Standard Program
There is no standardized pro-
gram of study in nursing, Prof.
Marshall said, although the Amer-
ican Nursing Association does set
up minimum requirements through
the Michigan Board of Nursing.
This board also must approve
nursing training programs and
set the passing level on board
exams for Michigan nurses.
Prof. Sanger has suggested that
the board be given more control
over training programs to increase
uniformity.

"Horizons of Science," a 10-part
film series from the Princeton
University Testing Service, will be
shown from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and
from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. tomorrow in
the Multipurpose Room of the
Undergraduate Library, Daniel S.
Lirones of the audio-visual de-
partment announced yesterday.
Faculty and students are in-
vited to attend the series which
will run continuously throughout
the day.
The program includes "Visual
Perception," "The World of Dr.
Vishriiac," "Exploring the Edge of
Space," "Thinking Machines,"
"The Mathematician and the
River," "New Lives for Old," Pro-
ject Mohole, Report No. 1,"
"Realm of the Galaxies," "Flow of
Life," and "Neutrons and Parts
of Matter."
Musket Scripts . .
The deadline date for original
scripts, submitted for Musket's
consideration, has been extended
through Sept. 15, John Fried,
general chairman, announced yes-
terday.
"The summer interim should
allow those who feel they can
compile a script ample time to
work it out," he said.
Fried sad the script should be
a musical comedy of normal per-
formance length. Complete or-
chestration will be required.
He added that in view of the
extended deadline scripts in need
of revision or rewriting cannot be
accepted by the committee. The
chosen script will be produced in
April, 1961, if a show is found to
be feasible at that time.
Space Colloquium * ..
"Monochromater Measurement
of the Solar Far Ultraviolet and
X-Ray Spectrum," will be the
subject of a space astrophysics
colloquium, conducted by Prof.!
H. E. Hinterigger, director of
Geophysics Research at the Air
Firce Cambridge Research Cen-
ter, Bedford, Mass. The colloqu-
ium will be held under the aus-
pices of the Institute of Science
and Technology at 4:15 p.m. today
in Aud. B.
Science Seminar .. .
"Phased Beam and Quasi-Opti-
cal Antennas," wild be the topic
of a seminar conducted by Prof.
Samuel Silver of the electrical
engineering department at the
University of California, Berkeley,
at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow in Aud. B
under the auspices of the Institute
of Science and Technology.

Ten literary college and educa-
tion school students will spend the
coming fall semester studying and
practice teaching in Sheffield,
England as part of the University's
education abroad program.
The semester abroad, sponsored
by the School of Education, aims
to enable students to engage in
full-time study of professional
education in another country.
Under this plan it is possible to
become acquainted with school
aims and practices in England, as
well as earn credit for work re-
quired for the Michigan secondary
provisional teaching certificate.
The program is basically the
idea of Prof. Claude A. Eggertsen,
of the education school, who is
directing the project. Prof. Eggert-
sen first visited Sheffield in 1950
on a sabbatical leave. He has re-
turned twice, once with a group
of 30 students in the summer of
'1958. Out of these visits grew an
association that has led to an ex-
change of teachers between the
School of Education and the Uni-
versity of Sheffield. This will be
the first time, however, that a
group of University students will
study there.
Students Apply
Juniors and seniors from all
schools and colleges in the Univer-
sity may apply for the semester at
Sheffield, provided they anticipate
earning a teacher's -certificate.
In a later semester here the stu-
dents will have to earn six addi-
tional credit hours to receive the
certificate. These will come from
courses in student teaching and
problems and practices of sec-
ondary education.
Prof. Eggertsen stressed the
need and desirability to apply
early for the program. "Since the
student can earn up to 16 hours of
credit in education courses at

PROF. CLAUDE EGGERTSEN
... directs project
Sheffield, he ought to plan his pro-
gram long before he goes so he
won't duplicate courses here," he
said. Prof. Eggertsen is already ac-
cepting applications for next year.
Discuss Trip
At a meeting in Prof. Eggert-
sen's home Sunday, the students
and members of the faculty that
have been to Sheffield met to dis-
cuss their coming trip.
Tuition at Sheffield, Prof. Eg-
gertsen explained, is $100 for the
semester and room and boardsruns
$200 to $300. The students will
stay at residence halls or in ap-
proved lodgings for the five month
period from September 15 to Janu-
ary 30.
Sheffield is one of about 20 Eng-
lish universities, Prof. Eggertsen
said. "It is a typically good one,"
he commented, "and far better in
the education department than
Cambridge or London.
The University of Sheffield en-i

rolls about 3,000 students, 150 of
whom are in the department of
education, Miss Geraldine Scholl,
who was an exchange teacher
there last year, said.
"The city itself is a steel' and
coal mining center of about half
a million population. There is
magnificent countryside in the
area, esperially since York, Sher-
wood Forest, Peak and Chester-
field are near;"
Dean Willard Olsen, of the
Slhool of Education, described the
Sheffield people as "most hospit-
able." He remarked that he and
his wife were "royally entertained"
when they visited there several
years ago.
The students' schedule at Shef-
field will ,include nine weeks of
lectures six days a week, seven
weeks of practice teaching, a week
of intensive study at Ashford, Kent
and a month long Christmas vaca-
tion. The practice teaching will
be divided into 3 periods a day
teaching and five periods of ob-
servation.
Spend Winter
Prof. W. Scott Westerman, who
just returned from Sheffield, said
that the students spend their un-
usually long winter vacation study-
ing. "There is not much time for
study during the regular session
because of the tight lecture sched-
ule," he explained. "The students
also feel that. active participation
in the community is an essential
part of university life and this
also adds to their neglect of home-
work."
Miss Scholl described the social
life of the girls. "You're on your
own a great deal more there," she
said, mentioning that there is no
curfew and that the boys are al-
lowed in girls' rooms until 10 each
night. "However," she warned,
"life is quite a bit more formal
there for England is a tradition-
bound country."

In other action the Regents ac
cepted $1,000 from the Whitin
Foundation for the 50th anniver
sary fund of the department o
political science.
From Michigan Bell Telephor
Company the Regents' accepte
$1,000 as a contribution towards
computer for the industrial en
gineering department.
The Regents also accepted the
offer of National Educationa
Television and Radio Center, an(
the Japan Society to underwri1
