Colleges Get Nurse Training Grant Development of two-year training courses for registered nurses in California's junior colleges will be advanced with a $210,000 grant from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek, Mich. Roy E. Simpson, state superintendent of public instruction, today announced that $28,000 has been received from the foundation for the first five months of the five-year program. The grant follows the foundations approval of a development program submitted by the State Department of Education. The program seeks to meet an expanding need for registered nurses by strengthening the two-year training efforts now on trial in 12 California junior colleges. The Associate of Arts Degree in Nursing is offered upon completion of a two-year course in the following public institutions: Orange Coast College, Fullerton Junior College, Bakersfield College, Chaffey College, Contra Costa College, East Los Angeles Junior College, Los Angeles City College, Mt. San Antonio College, Pasadena City College, Riverside City College, Sacramento Junior College, and Santa Rosa Junior College. It is also offered at Pacific Union College, a private institution. Nationwide Test A nationwide test of the two-year program was sponsored by Columbia University, beginning in 1950. Two-thirds of the training time is devoted specifically to nursing skills and is carried out in cooperation with local hospitals. The remaining third is devoted to appropriate courses which are a part of the regular junior college curriculum. Noting the success of the Columbia experiment, the 1957 Legislature authorized the State Board of Nurses' Examiners to accredit two-year course for a provisional period. The examiners will report back to the Legislature after a five-year trial period. Specifically, the program calls for improved preparation of nurse educators, consultant services to administrators and faculties, evaluation of training efforts and results, assistance in student recruitment and development of regional centers. Program policy will be determined by a six-member coordinating committee. A project advisory committee will serve as a link between the coordinating group and the agencies affected by or interested in the program. Robert E.

Its sponsors announced here today. State Easter Seal officials urged Californians who have not yet contributed to send their gifts to their county crippled children's societies or to "Crippled Children, in care of local postmaster" promptly. Warren E. Griffith, executive director of the California Society for Crippled Children and Adults, said the statewide campaign goal of $1,300,000 must be reached to assure medical and other services for the state's physically disabled for another year. A dollar from every family which has not yet contributed will do the job, he added. Griffith explained that Easter Seal funds provide therapy, employment training, recreation, prosthesis and other forms of help for the handicapped of all ages. Californians gave $1,201,462 to last year's Easter Seal drive. Discipline Is Chief Worry of Future Teachers Prospective teachers worry more about discipline than any other problem as they prepare for their first teaching assignment. This is the conclusion of Dr. Lawrence E. Vredevoe, professor of education at the University of California, Los Angeles, who, during the last ten years, has questioned more than 5,000 administrators, teachers and students on school problems. When he recently asked 3,000 prospective teachers, "What gives you greatest concern or worry as you plan for your first teaching position?" 2480 answered, "Discipline." Furthermore, out of 2400 parents who had expressed dissatisfaction with the secondary schools, 1974 gave lack of discipline as one of their basic criticisms.

Furthermore, out of 2400 parents who had expressed dissatisfaction with the secondary schools, 1974 gave lack of discipline as one of their basic criticisms. "And 104 of 140 selected administrators questioned as to the chief reason for dismissal or failure to recommend re-employment of teachers, gave top ratings to terms which could all be classified in the broad sense under 'discipline,'" Dr. Vredevoe said. Basic reason for the increased problems of discipline are, according to the UCLA educator, the general breakdown in our society of agreement relative to moral and ethical standards of conduct; the changing emphasis and attitude toward law enforcement; and the explosion of population, its increasing mobility and concentration.
