THE DOORS TO ACHIEVEMENT

We pay tribute to you, the graduating class of 1983. The
achievement of your Bachelor of Science degree from the
Division of General Studies, a notable achievement in itself, is
especially impressive since it was pursued by so many of you
w^hile meeting the demands of full-time professional careers,
and often, of family life.

We celebrate your intellect, energy, and pursuit of excellence.
We only hope that your new degree will open many doors to
achievement in the years to come.

DIVISION OF GENERAL STUDIES

May 1983

To the Graduates ot 1983,

Graduation is your time for reflection and celebration. It is an opportunity for you
to pause, to take a moment to look back on what has transpired in your life since you
entered St. Joseph's. In doing this, you will be measuring yourself against what you
were, identifying the ways you have gained confidence, independence, and
knowledge. You will also, no doubt, think of those who helped you reach your
goal — your family, friends, and teachers.

It won't take much reflection to recall the tremendous amount of time and energy
you have devoted to earning your bachelor's degree. You have worked hard and you
have sacrificed, and for this you have reason to celebrate.

A special cause for celebration this year is Achievements, the very first General
Studies yearbook. Born of suggestions from students and faculty members of the
Division Advisory Council, the yearbook became a reality under the able and creative
direction of Daniel Beni, with assistance from Eileen Mullen. So as we turn the pages
of this book, which brings to us so many warm memories, we should thank those who
made it possible, including you, the Graduating Class of 1983.

Sincerely,

Thomas G. Travis, Dean

OUR GRADUATES SPEAK ABOUT
THE GENERAL STUDIES PROGRAM

"My degree in Community Health enabled me to deal with problems my
patients encounter as they leave the hospital setting."

"I have a broader view of the Health Field."

"Obtaining a B.S. at St. Joseph's helped me to further my education. I
continued on to gain my Master's in Public Administration."

"I believe it helped me considerably more so in coping with the behavior
patterns of the aged whom I now serve."

"Gave me adequate assurance and support in my work and socially."

"St. Joseph's was very thorough and realistic in the ways of the business
world and management."

"I was promoted from Staff Nurse to Head Nurse, to Supervisor of Nursing,
and to Director of Staff Education."

"A degree in Health Administration gave me the background necessary for
an administrative position."
