Excerpt from The Pledge 1965: 75th Anniversary From the University Hospital Nurses' Alumnae Bulletin, 1925, p. 8-10. As the school grew, we heard that a new home for the nurses was to be built. We were to receive a month, and furnish our own uniforms and books. After the new home was completed, we had more room and more comforts. The chapel was made into a sitting room, where occasionally we had music, or a dance, and the Little Lady In White would occasionally join in the merry-making. From the University Hospital Nurses' Alumnae Bulletin, 1925, p. 11. Entering nursing was self-sacrifice and self-denial, giving up of one's home and devoting your life to the service of others. Nurse-doctor relationship was to be strictly professional. Nurses were forbidden to have social conversation with medical students or doctors and to see them after hours was just out of the question. However, twenty graduated with me and four married doctors. Even the telephone conversations were censored when the coding was discovered. Meant same old meeting place. Then there was trusty Wilbur, a night orderly who conveyed notes for nurses and doctors. One night he was hailed by the medical superintendent as he made rounds, and asked Wilbur where he was going. I was asked to get some specimen bottles from the lab. Excuse me, Doctor, I have to cough. He turned around and coughed and swallowed the note. Paper eater Wilbur saved the nurse's neck and the incident te mained a standing joke for some time. The unfortunate nurse to be caught was punished by a night duty stretch, special duty, or suspension of late leaves.

The year 2015 marks the 50th anniversary of the passage of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) of 1965—a landmark decision that made the United States the diverse nation it is today. In The Law that Changed the Face of America, congressional journalist and immigration expert Margaret Sands Orchowski delivers a never before told story of how immigration laws have moved in constant flux and revision throughout our nation’s history. Exploring the changing immigration environment of the twenty-first century, Orchowski discusses globalization, technology, terrorism, economic recession, and the expectations of the millennials. She also addresses the ever present U.S. debate about the roles of the various branches of government in immigration; and the often competitive interests between those who want to immigrate to the United States and the changing interests, values, ability, and right of our sovereign nation states to choose and welcome those immigrants who will best advance the country.

Although Wettach was not hired as an FSA photographer, his pictures provide a fascinating parallel to the more famous work of his FSA colleagues Walker Evans, Dorothea Lange, and Russell Lee.

A lively chronicle of the year that shaped popular music forever! Fifty years ago, friendly rivalry between musicians turned 1965 into the year rock evolved into the premier art form of its time and accelerated the drive for personal freedom throughout the Western world. The Beatles made their first artistic statement with Rubber Soul. Bob Dylan released "Like a Rolling Stone, arguably the greatest song of all time, and went electric at the Newport Folk Festival. The Rolling Stones's "Satisfaction" catapulted the band to world-wide success. New genres such as funk, psychedelia, folk rock, proto-punk, and baroque pop were born. Soul music became a prime force of desegregation as Motown crossed over from the R&B charts to the top of the Billboard Hot 100. Country music reached new heights with Nashville and the Bakersfield sound. Musicians raced to innovate sonically and lyrically against the backdrop of seismic cultural shifts wrought by the Civil Rights Movement, Vietnam, psychedelics, the Pill, long hair for men, and designer Mary Quant’s introduction of the miniskirt. In 1965, Andrew Grant Jackson combines fascinating and often surprising personal stories with a panoramic historical narrative.
