SCHOOL OF NURSING In order to secure improved facilities for the education of nurses, to increase the number of students in process of education, and to effect a more economical use of space that is already available, thus obviating the need for the immediate construction of a residence for nurses and of a building for a School of Nursing, an affiliation between the University of Illinois School of Nursing and the Cook County School of Nursing is proposed, this affiliation to be supplemented by the hospital facilities of the University and of the Cook County Hospital, and by affiliation with the Presbyterian Hospital, St. Luke's Hospital, and such other hospitals as the scope of the program may require. Aside from good educational policy, the immediate occasion for the proposed affiliation is as follows: Immediately adjacent to the Cook County Hospital and the University of Illinois Chicago Professional Colleges, there is an excellent Nurses Residence with 820 rooms. At the present time, 545 rooms are occupied by student nurses, staff members, and others. T h e remaining rooms in the number of 275 are vacant. The University of Illinois originally included in its capital budget for 1949-1951, a request for $1,600,000 for a nurses residence. There is a proposal to request a further item in the 1951-1953 budget for a College or School of Nursing building. Good economy suggests an arrangement whereby existing facilities be used to the maximum before further construction is undertaken. The proposed affiliation would lead to this economy. In order to effect the proposed affiliation, the following actions a r e necessary: I. An agreement between the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois and the Board of Trustees of the Cook County School of Nursing which will provide for: a. T h e appointment of qualified staff members, including if mutually agreeable, the Director or Dean of the Cook County School of Nursing, to the staff of the University of Illinois School of Nursing on a nonsalaried basis.
