General Statement

Indiana University. By every measure of strength among modern universities, Indiana University ranks near the top. It is old enough (founded in 1820) to have great stability and great traditions. It is large enough (eleventh in the nation) to offer a breadth of instruction seldom equaled. Yet, through a carefully organized system of counseling, it gives personal and individual attention to each student.

The Indiana faculty, including scholars of national and international reputation, offers instruction and training in research in hundreds of subjects. The University libraries, which include some of the nation's most important collections in a number of fields, contain more than 4,000,000 pieces.

On all its campuses, Indiana University has sought to preserve the informality and friendliness of a small school. As the result, no student becomes "lost" in the transition from high school to university. This has been accomplished through the successful faculty- student counseling program of the Junior Division, the "academic home" of all freshmen, and the individualized programs in all the dormitories.

More than twenty different offices at Indiana University provide services designed to give each student individual attention. These include aid in acquiring correct study and reading habits, health care, planning for special courses of study, part-time employment, student loans and scholarships, aid in finding accommodations, and job place- ment service on graduation.

Since Indiana University is composed of several different schools or divisions, students receive a wide variety of opportunities for study and training. These areas cover the fields of the allied health sciences;

arts and sciences; business; dentistry; education; health, physical education, and recreation; law; medicine; library science; music; nursing;

optometry; and social service.

The College of Arts and Sciences has one of the largest enroll- ments and faculties of any college in Indiana. The School of Business, by national ranking, is a leader in a wide variety of business training courses. The School of Music is outstanding among such schools at state universities. A large percentage of the administrators and teachers in the state's public school system have been prepared in the School of Education. The School of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation offers many new courses in the expanding field of health and recreation. Through the facilities of the Medical Center at Indianapolis, the School of Medicine, the School of Dentistry, and the School of Nursing offer exceptional opportunities. The School of Law, both at Bloomington and at Indianapolis, is recognized as outstanding. The Division of Allied Health Sciences offers several programs leading to degrees in the various fields associated with medicine and dentistry.

(6)

(8)

The Division of Optometry and the Division of Library Science offer the only accredited programs in Indiana leading to degrees in these fields.

The Graduate School at Indiana attracts scholars from hundreds of other institutions, both in the United States and abroad. Specialized study is available on the highest academic levels and in all major fields of study.

Though Bloomington is a small city, Indiana University is able to provide cultural advantages seldom duplicated in metropolitan areas. These include outstanding symphony orchestras, world-famous- musicians and lecturers, Broadway dramatic and musical productions,.

ballets, etc. Many students enjoy participating in the activities of the more than forty musical units on the campus, including the philharmonic orchestra, band, chorus, and many other smaller ensem- bles. Others become interested in the programs of the campus pub- lications such as the daily newspaper, or in the self-government groups, religious organizations, and the many hobby clubs.

Within easy driving distance from the Bloomington Campus are immense state forest preserves and three state parks, which are available for recreational purposes. The campus itself is famous for its natural beauty, as is the Southern Indiana area in which the Univer- sity is located. Extensive space on the campus is provided for outdoor and indoor sports and games.

Housing for students has been a major undertaking of the Uni- versity. Dormitories, with accommodations available at a wide range of prices, are provided for more than half of the students enrolled.

The buildings are modem and include facilities which offer opportunities for comfort beyond the average "room and board."

Indiana University is constituted by law as the head of the state's public school system. It is supported by the people of Indiana, who have always been alert to the finest in educational opportunities. The University has not been content to rest on past attainments. Perhaps that is one reason why it is one of the fastest growing universities among the thirty largest and best American institutions.

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 with a major in nursing, and Master of Science in Nursing Education with a major in nursing education.

All courses (general education and nursing education) completed at the Indianapolis Downtown Campus of Indiana University will be counted toward credit for fulfillment of the residence requirements for the degree, provided the courses are in accord with curricula requirements and students are admitted to the Division of Nursing Education.

Historical Sketch of Graduate Nurse Education. 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 yearl932-33. The program at that time was in the Physical Welfare Training Depart-

(9)

ment in the School of Education 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, and 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 current undergraduate program for professional nurses, first offered in 1952, is now the only curriculum for professional nurses at the baccalaureate level.

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 National League for Nursing, Department of Baccalaureate and Higher Degree Programs.

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.

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.

This philosophy, upon which the 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.

(10)

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 Club, 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 in nursing, Pi Lambda Theta for women in education, and Phi Delta Kappa for men in education. Students may be elected to membership who demonstrate 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 the basic fee of

$11 a credit hour for graduate or undergraduate work, or $165 for 15 semester hours; nonresidents are charged a basic fee of $27 a credit hour, or $405 for 15 semester hours. Resident students registered at the Indianapolis Downtown Campus 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; nonresidents are charged a basic fee of $18 for each credit hour of undergraduate work and $21 for each credit hour of graduate work.

A special field fee of $50 is required of all students at the time of enrollment in the first field course of a program. This fee is payable once for all undergraduate field courses, and once for all graquate field courses.

(11)

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 Trustees.

Room and board in Halls of Residence on the Bloomington Cam- pus vary from $327.50 to $470 a semester. Rates for housing for married students vary from $50 a month for a standard trailer to $155 a month for a three-bedroom unfurnished apartment, according to type. A limited number of cooperative accommodations are available in Mason Hall for undergraduate women in apartment spaces for four or six. Students furnish own linen, china, and kitchenware and share housekeeping and cooking responsibilities. The room-only rate is $320 per school year. In the new Wendell L. Willkie Quadrangle, cooperative housing, including meals, is $580 for the academic school year.

Students furnish own bedding and do own housekeeping and assist in dining room duties. Rooms in private residences may be rented at an average price a semester of approximately $117 double to $135 single, and meals are available at nearby restaurants or in the In- diana Memorial Union.

Payment for rooms and meals in the Halls of Residence may be made in full or in two, four, or 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, Febru- ary, 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 cooperates with several banks which have established finance plans for students. These plans gener- ally 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 in equal monthly installments over a six- or eight-year period. More complete information may be obtained by writing to the Bursar's Office, Bryan Administration Building, Indiana Univer- sity, Bloomington, Indiana 47405.

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

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 47405. 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 47405.

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