To secure it for the individual, reared amidst the complexities of modern civilization, requires trained leadership of the high- est type which knows, and can put into practice, such personal and community health habits as will prevent the development of needless disease and physical or mental defects, thereby pro- longing life and increasing efficiency. The School of Public Health of the University of Louisville was established for the purpose of providing the training neces- sary for successful Health Officers and Public Health Nurses. In this, its fourth catalogue, it approaches its problem with the confidence given it by the success of its graduates in their various fields of responsibility. Although young in years, the School can point with pride to the fact that each of its graduates, who so desiring it, has been able to step into and successfully conduct the particular work for which she, or he, was fitted. The right foundation for a public health career is builded in the School, and upon this our students are successfully erecting the organi- zations which, in their varying fields, are most essential. It is not the purpose of the School to develop research work- ers nor specialists in the various branches of sanitary science. Its purpose, and in this purpose it has been, and is being, suc- cessful, is to develop practical Health Officers and Health Nurses, trained in welfore work, able to cope with the every day prob- lems of the communities in which they serve. It is realized that most of the sanitary progress that has been made in the past has been made by physicians who, while wholly untrained in the science of preventive medicine, have of necessity developed the art of sanitation. These part-time health officers have created a demand for trained all-time health work- ers who can convince all the people of the necessities of personal and community hygiene. To help in adequately supplying this new and insistent demand in Kentucky and other states, the University of Louisville has established a School of Public Health for the practical education and training of Health Of- ficers, Public Health Nurses, Laboratory Technicians and San- itary Inspectors. The faculty comprises the directors of the Bureaus of the State Board of Health of Kentucky, members of the faculty of the University of Louisville, of the Louisville Normal School, the directors of the Public Health Nursing Association of Louis- ville, and the Louisville Welfare League. The cooperation of the Medical Department of the Univer- sity, the American Red Cross, the Kentucky Tuberculosis Asso- ciation, the Louisville Normal School and the Louisville Public Library has been constant and invaluable. The school is conducted in a modern building, especially adapted for the purpose, which would cost $300,000.00 to build, containing, also, the offices and equipment of the State Board of Health, including the laboratories. Each student spends enough time in the work of each bureau to be thoroughly acquainted with its methods and to be able to call upon it for the assistance it is intended to give him, or her, as a health official. The field work is conducted in connection with the Health Department of the city of Louisville and in the splendidly or- ganized and supervised Public Health Nursing Association of Louisville, ably directed by Miss Elmira Bears, and in one of the rural county health departments where there is a full-time health officer in charge, with a trained public health nurse, un- der the supervision of Miss Marian Williamson, State Director of Public Health Nursing. The students will be given practical work under competent supervision, in every line of activity in which they will be interested. The demand for Health Officers and Public Health Nurses is constantly increasing. Students who are willing to apply themselves can be assured of splendid opportunities for service. 12 to c Eh i o +j O 0) a DQ PROGRAMS OF STUDY— REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION 1.
