General Statement

The Division of Nursing Education, in the School of Education, offers nursing curricula for graduate nurses leading to the degrees Bachelor of Science in General Nursing, Bachelor of Science in Nurs- ing Education, and Master of Science in Nursing Education.

AU courses (general education and nursing education) completed at the Indianapolis Downtown Center of the Division of Uni- versity Extension will be counted toward credit for fulfillment of the residence requirements for the degree, provided students are registered in the Division of Nursing Education.

Historical Sketch. The nursing curricula for graduate nurses were established at Indiana University at the request of the Indiana State Nurses Association. The first official offerings were introduced during the academic year 1932-33. The program at that time was in the Physical Welfare Training Department in the School of Educa- tion and included three curricula leading to the B.S. degree. These curricula were in public health nursing, administration and supervision, and teaching in schools of nursing.

In 1933-34, the first nursing courses were offered in the Exten- sion Centers. In 1944, nursing education was placed directly under the Dean of the School of Education, becoming the Division of Nursing Education. At that time, there were offerings for public health nurses; for instructors in science, nursing arts, and medical, surgical, obstetrical, and pediatric nursing; and for supervisors in clinical areas.

Graduate work was later added to the curriculum, arid the first master's degree earned by a student in nursing was conferred in 1947.

Since that time, the master's degree program has continued to expand, until, at present, extensive offerings are available which include instruction in field centers.

The Curriculum in General Nursing was first offered in 1952 and now is the only curriculum offered to students taking a bachelor's degree program.

The Division of Nursing Education has students from all parts of the United States and various areas in other parts of the world.

Accreditation. The Division of Nursing Education is accredited by the Accrediting Service of the National League for Nursing.

Indiana University belongs to the Association of American Uni- versities, National Association of State Universities, Association of American Colleges, North Central Association of Colleges and Sec- ondary Schools, American Council on Education, and International Association of Universities, and, in athletics, to the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the Intercollegiate Conference of Faculty Repre- sentatives popularly known as the Western Conference, and the In- diana Intercollegiate Conference.

Advisory Committee. The Advisory Committee to the Division of Nursing Education is composed of representatives from nursing

(6)

(9)

and allied organizations, institutions, and agencies. The committee serves to interpret the programs of the Division of Nursing Education to interested groups and to assist the faculty in better determining and meeting nursing needs.

Philosophy. The philosophy of the Division of Nursing Educa- tion is that its educational program should develop its students into thinking, self-directive, interested, and informed persons who know social and professional needs and recognize their responsibility to meet those needs through the development of their own potential.

The guiding philosophy upon which this educational program is built emphasizes:

1. Practicality as well as ideals.

2. Specific needs of Indiana and the Midwest as well as needs of the nation and the world.

3. Current needs as well as projected future needs.

4. Needs of students both as persons and as members of society.

5. Patient and community needs as well as professional needs.

6. General educational content as well as specific nursing content.

7. Experience and skill as well as information and knowledge.

8. Problem solving or research for particular situations as well as for the profession as a whole.

Such philosophical emphasis should develop individuals who possess unity within themselves through personal, professional, social, and spiritual satisfaction that will be reflected in their nursing activities and relationships.

Objectives. The aim of the Division of Nursing Education is to help its students develop into mature, professionally responsible persons through an educational program which encompasses social, professional, and spiritual aspects in order that nurses may contribute toward continuous improvement of nursing service to the patient, the family, and the community.

The objectives of the Division are to guide and encourage individual students:

1. In realizing their potentialities as persons, as professional nurses, and as members of the community.

2. In promoting inquiry, advancing knowledge and use of principles, and improving attitudes and skills in nursing and in the different functional areas of professional nursing that require preparation beyond basic nursing education.

Organizations. An active organization of nurses, The Cresset, provides for its members a varied and interesting program of social and professional activities. This club is open to all students in the Division of Nursing Education.

In addition, there are three honorary organizations to which nursing education students may be elected: Sigma Theta Tau for men and women, Pi Lambda Theta for women, and Phi Delta Kappa for men. Students may be elected to membership who demonstrate

(10)

both high scholastic achievement and promise of professional leadership. Other student organizations open to nursing education students are listed in the general University Register.

Alumni. The Division of Nursing Education also has an active alumni association which works closely with the Division and is a unit of the University alumni. All students of the Division are eligible for membership.

Fees and Expenses. Students on the Bloomington campus who are taking nursing education in the School of Education and are legal residents of the state of Indiana are charged a basic fee of $7 a credit hour for graduate or undergraduate work, or $105 for fifteen semester hours; nonresidents are charged a basic fee of $18 a credit hour for undergraduate work, or $270 for fifteen semester hours, and a basic fee of $15.25 a credit hour for graduate work, or

$228.75 for fifteen semester hours. Students registered in the Indian- apolis Center of the Division of University Extension are charged a fee of $15 for each credit hour of undergraduate work and $18 for each credit hour of graduate work, whether residents or nonresidents of the state.

An additional charge of $7 to $15 for each credit hour, depending upon the charge of the outside field agency involved, is required of all students taking Education N414, N418, N436, N457, N458, N536, N579, N583, N587, N588-N589, N596, N597, and N598.

A charge of $8 for examinations is made of all bachelor's candidates the first semester they are registered in the Division of Nursing Education.

The fee for any degree in the Division of Nursing Education is $5.

Fees and Halls of Residence rates are subject to change by action of the Board of Trustees.

Rooms and meals in Halls of Residence on the Bloomington campus vary from $308.50 to $435 a semester. Rates for housing for married students vary from $45 a month for a trailer to $92.50 a month for a one-bedroom furnished apartment, according to type.

Co-operative housing is available to men and women at $65 or $72.50 a semester, for room only. Rooms in private residences may be obtained at an average price a semester of $103.50 double to $126 single, and meals are available at the University Commons, Cafeteria, or Tudor Room in the Indiana Memorial Union, or at nearby restau- rants.

Payment for rooms and meals in the Halls of Residence may be made in full or in eight equal installments which can be scheduled to avoid payments in the months when fees are paid. This will spread payments over ten months, allowing September and January for fees, and August, October, November, December, February, March, April, and May for dormitory payments. This plan, "Pay as You Learn,'' has been established to provide an easier way to pay basic expenses.

The University also co-operates with several banks which have established finance plans for students. These plans generally provide that the bank will advance the major portion of a student's expenses each year for four years, with repayment being made to the bank

(11)

in equal monthly installments over a six- or eight-year period. More complete information may be obtained by writing to the Treasurer's Office, Bryan Administration Building, Indiana University, Bloom- ington, Indiana.

Payments of monthly rentals for housing facilities for married students are required in advance, between the first and tenth day of the month.

Rooms for graduate students, faculty, and staff members, varying from $45 to $112.50 per month, are available in the Indiana Memorial Union and Campus Club, also a few efficiency apartments at $125 per month in the Union. A $25 deposit is required and a room con- tract must be signed. For further information, contact the Reserva- tions Manager, Indiana Memorial Union, Indiana University, Bloom- ington, Indiana.

Scholarships and Loan Funds. A number of general scholarships and loan funds are available. For further information, write to the Director of Scholarships and Financial Aids, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana. Federal traineeships and a limited number of scholarships specifically for nurses are available. For information concerning these opportunities, write to Director, Division of Nursing Education, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana.

Out-of-Class Activities. Entertainment and recreational activities of many kinds are provided by the University, and others are available in the community.

The University annually brings to the campus in its Auditorium and Celebrity Series, which includes internationally known artists, concerts by leading symphony orchestras, and Broadway plays. The Metropolitan Opera Company comes to the campus each spring to give two operas. The University Theatre and the School of Music give student productions that rival professional performances both in stage sets and in talent.

On its Convocation Series the University presents, free to the public, a number of lectures by such prominent figures as John Mason Brown, Charles Laughton, Harold Macmillan, Bennett Cerf, and Clement Attlee.

Several beautiful state parks are located in the vicinity, some with lodges, shelter houses, recreational facilities, cabins, and dining accommodations. Nashville, Indiana, located twenty miles east of Bloomington, is an artists' colony. It contains quaint gift shops, antique shops, a popular summer playhouse, and other attractions.

Informal recreational activities are arranged by the University and many interest groups are represented. It is always a season of sports at Indiana University for those interested in the many games and contests.

Field Course Requirements. Application for field instruction must be made on a form obtainable from the Office of the Division of Nursing Education. The completed form should be presented to the field co-ordinator at least a full semester prior to the beginning of the semester in which the student intends to take the course or courses.

(12)

All students attending Indiana University are required to have a physical examination at the Health Center upon admission. Students who plan to take field instruction should have a chest X ray and bring their immunizations against smallpox, diphtheria, and typhoid fever up to date at the beginning of the session prior to assignment.

Students who have not been in residence on the Bloomington campus immediately before being assigned will be expected to have a physical examination with chest X ray and the necessary immunizations by their private physician. Students may need to meet additional requirements as specified by field centers. A form to be filled in by the physician will be provided.

Some of the field instruction courses are not offered each semester, or during the summer sessions. Students should consult their advisers early to determine the field instruction schedule.

A student registering in Education N414, N457, and N458 will be given permission to drive a personal car only when it is the policy of the agency in which the student is taking her field experience.

Some agencies assume transportation costs other than for the use of a personal car. In those which do not, the student must assume transportation expenses incurred while on assignment in the field.

Housing is not secured for field students by the Division of Nurs- ing Education, although every effort is made to assist the student in securing housing in or near the field centers.

Before the student is eligible for field assignment, she must have met the following requirements:

1. Completion of those courses that are basic to her field ex·

perience, as indicated in her educational program planned with her adviser.

2. Attainment of the following:

a. An average grade of C or above for bachelor's degree students, and of B or above for master's degree students, in all university work taken and in all professional courses.

b. A grade of C or above for bachelor's degree students, and of B or above for master's degree students, in the area in which field work is to be taken.

3. Proficiency in both written and spoken English.

4. Demonstration of a personality suited to nursing, and a reasonable maturity of attitude toward nursing, that will contribute to her success in the area of her choice.

The faculty of the Division of Nursing Education, or such persons as may be designated by it, will be the sole judge as to whether the student has met these provisions.
