IDENTIFICATION OF DIVISION. Baccalaureate Division. This division is devoted to undergraduate education in nursing. is It divided into five major subareas. 1. General Education, which is included chiefly in the first two yearsA The classrooms, laboratories and faculty serving general education for the most part are located in other colleges in the University. 2. Medical-Surgical Nursing, which is taught in three quarters of the third year, one quarter in the fourth year, and may be included as part of the content in one quarter of the fifth year. In the third year eight sections of twelve students each are planned for in each of three quarters. 3. Maternal and Child Nursing, which is taught in the fourth year in three sections now of twelve to fifteen students in each of three quarters. With planned expansion in numbers, the two courses in this area will be taught in six sections of approximately the present size. 4. Psychiatric Nursing, which is now taught in the fourth year in three sections, one each quarter, with twelve to fifteen students. With increased numbers psychiatric nursing will require two sections each quarter, making a total of six sections annually. 5. Public Health Nursing, which is taught in the fifth year in three sections, one each quarter, with twelve to fifteen students to a section. With expansion in numbers this area also will require two sec- tions each quarter, or six sections annually. i - 62 B. HISTORY. A baccalaureate program in nursing has been offered at the University of Utah since 1942. Since 1948 all undergraduate students have been enrolled in a degree program. Undergraduate enrollments now average 42 students in each of the sophomore, junior and senior years, including both basic students and those entering the program as registered nurses. The largest enrollment is at present in the sophomore class with 48 students. The annual rate of increase justifies a projection of 150 first-year, 120 second-year, 96 third-year and 75 to 80 students in each of the final two clinical years as a basis for building planning. Existing facilities for clinical learning include the classrooms of Building 430; the medical-surgical and pediatric wards of the University Hospital; selected medical-surgical wards of the Latter-day Saints Hospital of Salt Lake City; the medical-surgical and selected psychiatric wards of the Veterans Administration Hospital; the medical-surgical and obstetrical facilities of the Cottonwood L.D.S. Hospital; the clinical services of the Children's Primary Hospital; various public health nursing agencies, and public and private clinics. Most of the facilities listed lack clinical conference and teaching rooms and fall far short of providing an ideal environment for clinical teaching. The facilities of the College of Nurs- ing Building located near the Medical Center Hospital will provide a good environment for teaching and learning nursing. C. JUSTIFICATION. The baccalaureate program is needed to bring into the nursing profes- sion new members prepared to practice nursing at the professional level and to provide a pool from which to draw the graduate students who will go on - 108b OUTLINE - GENERAL DIVISION III GRADUATE DIVISION A. IDENTIFICATION OF DIVISION. Graduate Division. This division includes the classrooms, laboratories, seminar rooms, study carrels for students and office spaces for faculty members and clerical workers involved in the graduate programs of the College of Nursing. The sub- divisions provided include: 1. Graduate Program in Psychiatric Nursing. 2. Graduate Program in Medical-Surgical Nursing. 3. Graduate Program in Maternal and Child Nursing. Initiated in 1958. Initiated in 1961. To be initiated in 1965. 4. Graduate Program in Public Health Nursing. To be initiated in 1966 or 1967. 5. B. Department of Research. HISTORY. As indicated under the section immediately above, graduate programs in nursing were started in 1958 and have been growing in offerings and in number of students since that time. The graduate program in psychiatric nursing is moving toward the addition of a program for "Career Teachers," and of special projects in the psychiatric nursing area. Most of the teaching facilities other than the clinical have been in Building 430, but these facilities are markedly inadequate. There is but one seminar room, whereas the faculty considers eight such rooms necessary to the proper functioning of the program. No graduate laboratories are provided and ! : 'I - 108c there is need for three to four such laboratories, each of different type and with different equipment. I' The faculty in this area has increased from one full-time and three parttime members in 1958 to'one full-time and five part.-,.time members in 1965-66. The receipt of federal teaching grants at the graduate level has stimulated acceleration in the growth of these programs. C. JUSTIFICATION. Graduate programs in nursing are needed to prepare clinical nursing specialists, teachers, administrators and research workers in nursing. As with other areas of collegiate education, the need is acute to prepare university teachers to give a high quality of instruction to rapidly growing numbers of baccalaureate and graduate students. The need is equally acute for clinical nursing specialists in the direct administration of nursing care to patients. From this pool of qualified personnel the associate degree and diploma programs in nursing also seek faculty members. Space is needed and specialized equipment necessary to facilitate student and faculty research. D. This space has been planned in the graduate division. FUNCTIONS OF THE GRADUATE DIVISION. The function of this division is to prepare qualified graduates of baccalaureate programs in nursing to become expert nursing clinicians in a chosen clinical field, to supervise nursing care in the specialty, to teach in basic programs in nursing, and to conduct research of moderate complexity I! as demanded by the positions graduates of the program enter. In other words, the functions of the division include classroom teaching and learning, seminars, behavioral laboratory observation and participation, one-to-one conferences, group work, individual study and research. ◄ The usual ., l - 2 ,, 1-4 I I ,., ! .

Quinn BUILDING TO IMPLEMENT A PHILOSOPHY OF NURSING Nursing is a discipline of complex nature that requires practitioners of several levels of educational preparation. Only recently has there emerged the outline of a differentiation between the nurse with adequate professional preparation and the nurse technician. The public has little awareness of this difference, and many nurses and doctors strongly resist recognizing the trend. For the nurse technician, who at present provides a part of the daily bedside care of patients, technical post high school education is available. For the nurse clinician and supervisor of patient care with a considerable area for decision making, for the teacher, administrator and research worker in nursing the baccalaureate, the master's and the doctoral degrees represent the various levels of educational preparation needed. This kind of preparation is provided in universities by schools of nursing using their own resources and drawing freely upon those of other colleges and departments within the university. The philosophy of the University of Utah College of Nursing is based on the belief that nursing is a learned service profession built upon natural and behavioral science foundations, a profession with a rapidly growing specialized content which underlies the science and art of nursing. This content can be expanded and refined only in the way it has been and is being done in other disciplines - through research. For this reason, the plans for the projected College of Nursing building must include not only forward-looking teaching facilities, but expanded and improved provisions for research. Because eighty percent of the practicing nurses in the United States today hold no academic degrees and less than five percent have the master's degree or higher, the production of new knowledge in the field of nursing through research and the production of qualified leaders is under a severe handicap. Therefore, it is upon the universities providing basic and graduate education in nursing that the responsibility rests to prepare expert clinicians in nursing, effective teachers and administrators, and research workers qualified to develop new knowledge. These are the educational aims of the University of Utah College of Nursing. Nursing education has long been nourished by the scraps and left-overs from hospital and medical services and has been shifted around when space needs conflicted with those of other disciplines. Until recently the money invested in nursing education has been minimal in spite of the fact that because of its clinical practice aspects it is a costly type of education. Because patient safety and welfare must be protected, teaching-learning sections for student education must be small, often in a one-to-one teacher-student ratio. A part of the necessary financial outlay for nursing education can be charged to the physical facilities needed. These are chiefly classr«!10111s, - 4 - . ,, ' conference rooms and laboratories. Closed circuit television is needed to permit large numbers of students to view nursing procedures, surgical interventions and deliveries in which only one or two nurses at a time can personally participate without disadvantage to the patient and the procedure • One-way vision and sound rooms are needed to enable students to learn the one-to-one and small group interaction skills, the environment for which would be destroyed by the known presence of an observing group. As nursing depends for its success so largely on knowledge of human development, a human development laboratory providing for directed experience with individuals, families, and selected groups is essential to good nursing education. Interagency cooperation can provide the children, the families, the expectant mothers, the physically handicapped persons, and the mentally retarded to serve as clinical participants and to receive the benefits from the programs provided primarily for student learning. The University needs to produce for Utah well prepared bedside nurses with enough scientific and social studies background to make informed judgments on nursing problems and to plan with and direct other nursing personnel of more limited educational preparation. Utah has fewer nurses per unit of population than any other Western state. We hope that it does not follow that Utah residents receive poorer nursing care than elsewhere in the West, but an uncomfortable suspicion arises that this may be the case. It must not be true in the future. The University of Utah is the only university in Utah and in several of the adjoining states to have a nationally recognized accredited graduate program in nursing. We do and should supply to institutions in our own state and in nearby states a large proportion of the clinical specialists, teachers and administrators in nursing. Without these specialists, baccalaureate programs in nursing, hospital diploma programs, associate degree programs, practical nurse programs, and the quality of nursing service in the region would deteriorate. With a new building we plan to treble our output of clinical nursing specialists and to contribute substantially to . the improvement of health care in Utah and to some extent in the rest of the country. In developing a building to effectively house an educational program implementing a philosophy of nursing education, the number and kinds of spaces and equipment items must be correlated with the number and size of classes and sections and the character of the teaching-learning activities projected. Provision for future growth is essential and is a long-range economy. Utah population is destined to grow. The health services will expand and health personnel take on new roles, thus demanding flexibility in building. The provision of a highly functional College of Nursing building at the University of Utah will contribute substantially to providing well qualified nurses to meet the ever changing health needs of the people. - 5 - INTRODUCTION ' . From the time of its inception in 1942 as a department in the College of Education, the nursing program of the University of Utah has been housed in temporary quarters not built for the teaching of nursing and lacking in the special laboratory and other facilities needed for the most effective teaching and learning in this discipline. Although additional space was allocated to nursing in 1948 when the department became a college, campus physical facilities have not been expanded since this date. In the meantime enrollments have continued to grow, the faculty has been increased from five to thirty-three members, and graduate programs have been developed. Teaching and traineeship grants have been a factor in the increase of student enrollments and in the need to employ additional faculty members. Some faculty offices and classrooms have been obtained in clinical facilities contracted for in connection with the teaching program or rented in such areas. These expedients have not been fully satisfactory because of the waste of time necessarily devoted to student and faculty travel and the lack of adequate communication among faculty members. When Congress passed Public Law 88-129 late in 1963, providing for federal assistance to the health professions for the construction of educational facilities, the Executive Committee of the College of Nursing moved at once to obtain from the University administration approval for submitting to the United States Public Health Service a letter of intent to apply for funds to assist in the construction of a new teaching facility for the education of nurses at the University of Utah and for initial equipment for the proposed building. The Executive Committee of the College of Nursing met on November 8, 1963, with Mr. Bruce H. Jensen, Director of the University of Utah Department of Campus Planning and Construction, and with Mr. Robert D. Ensign, a member of the same department, to obtain an estimate of the cost of construction of a College of Nursing building of the size and kind proposed. A tentative estimate was made to cover a building with net space of about 25,000 square feet and gross space of 40,000 square feet. This sum was quoted in the letter of intent to apply for federal funds on a matching basis and the letter of intent was mailed November 9, 1963. The estimate of space was a very rough one, for the faculty of the College had done no detailed planning at this date and had no experience in planning for building construction. To prepare for submitting a formal application, a Building Planning Committee was selected with Mrs. Hazelle B. Macquin, Professor of Nursing and former Dean of the College of Nursing,as chairman. Membership of the committee included all members of the Executive Committee: Mrs. Mildred D. Quinn, Dean of the College, Associate Professor Cathryn Mainwaring, Director of the Baccalaureate Program, and Assistant Professor Wilna Wixom, Adviser to General Nursing Students. Other members were selected to represent special interest areas. The first meeting of the Building Planning Committee was held on January 13, 1964. At this time decision was made on the general divisions under - 6 - '· ' ", ' which planning would be carried forward and on meeting dates for the central committee and division subcommittees. Agreement was reached on the number of students to be planned over the next fourteen years. A table showing these predicted enrollments is included at the end of this introduction. The central committee met January 20, February 3, March 2, and April 20 and additional work was done in weekly subcommittee meetings and in conferences of the area representatives with the chairman and with Mr. Ensign. Originally six general divisions were planned. As work progressed and as further information on application procedures was received, some of the original divisions were merged, some were eliminated, and the following divisions were accepted: A. Administrative Division. B. Baccalaureate Division. C. Graduate Division. Work on building plans was pushed forward as rapidly as was possible in a situation in which all faculty members were carrying full teaching loads. Application materials and architectural plans were completed, signed by the President of the University, and mailed to the United States Public Health Service in time to meet a cut-off date of August 15, 1964. On October 13, 1964, a site visit to the University of Utah was made by representatives of the United States Public Health Service Division of Hospital and Medical Facilities. The visitors were: Mrs. Ruth G. Yankauer, Chief Nurse Adviser of the Division, and two representatives from its advisory council; Miss Helen C. Belcher, Nurse Consultant, Southern Regional Education Board, Atlanta, Georgia; and Dr. Mary D. Shanks, Dean of Nursing, Illinois Wesleyan University. On November 24, 1964, the National Advisory Council on Education for the Health professions highly endorsed the request of the College of Nursing and recommended it for consideration by the National Advisory Council on Nurse Training, a new council appointed under the terms of Public Law 88-581, the Nurse Training Program. With proposed construction to begin in 1966, the application was transferred from projects funded under Public Law 88-129 to those to be funded under Public Law 88-581. In January, 1965, provision of the state matching funds for this project was requested of the Utah State Legislature by the University of Utah. Near the end of the legislative session such funds were voted as part of the University of Utah building allowance. In May, 1965, an architect for the building was appointed and at the current date, June 1, 1965, the building project appears to be progressing on the schedule submitted to the Public Health Service in the grant request. ,., ,.. _., UNIVERSITY OF UTAH COLLEGE OF NURSING Baccalaureate and Graduate Student Predicted Enrollments 1963-64 to 1978-79 (Based on population trends, past growth patterns and a philosophy of coordinating program growth with faculty growth.)

The College of Nursing building is planned exclusively for the College of Nursing and will have facilities for classroom teaching, laboratory work, conferences and seminars, research, offices for faculty and clerical staff, storage of teaching and office supplies, faculty and student lounges, and study carrels to provide for utilization of newer methods of individual learning. Divisions of the College to be housed are (1) the administrative offices and related spaces such as the reception and communications area; (2) the baccalaureate program classrooms, conference rooms, laboratories, faculty offices, student lounge and study carrels; and (3) the graduate program seminar rooms, laboratories, research facilities, study carrels and faculty offices. In addition to teaching facilities in the College of Nursing building, clinical practice facilities in the University Hospital and in other hospitals, clinics and public health nursing field agencies will be utilized in the teaching program. B. HISTORY. In the College of Nursing building will be carried on the major teach- ing activities of the baccalaureate and graduate nursing programs and the research and administrative functions of the College. In the past these activities have for the most part been housed in Building 430, in the nursing education facilities of the Salt Lake County General Hospital, and to some extent at the Cottonwood L.D.S. Hospital, the Veterans Administration Hospital, St. Mark's Hospital and other hospitals and agencies. Recently the offices of some faculty members have been moved into Building 105. - 11 When the Salt Lake County General Hospital closes the first of July, 1965, seven College of Nursing faculty members will move to the Medical Center and fourteen more to Building 105. The baccalaureate program of the College of Nursing has roots extending back to 1913 when anatomy and physiology and microbiology were first taught in the Medical School of the University of Utah without credit to the students of one Salt Lake City hospital school of nursing. By 1930 Extension Division credit was being given to students in three Salt Lake City schools of nursing for anatomy, physiology, microbiology, English 1 and 2, sociology, psychology, nutrition, and diet therapy. In 1942 a Department of Nursing Education was established in the School of Education. Students were recruited by the local hospital schoo s of nursing, spent two or more quarters in residence on the University of Utah campus and completed a three-year or a four-year program directed and supervised by faculty of the Department of Nursing Education, who taught some of the courses. Other courses were taught by hospital nursing personnel. In 1943 federal legislation establishing the United States Cadet Nurse Corps provided student tuition and stipends and led to greatly increased student enrollments. However, federal assistance promoted the three-year program rather than the degree program most appropriate for collegiate nursing education. With the termination of the Cadet Nurse Corps in 1948 the Department of Nursing Education at the University of Utah became the College of Nursing and all students thereafter pursued a four-year nursing program leading to a bachelor's degree. At this date the Salt Lake County General Hospital transferred its nursing students to the College of Nursing and - 12 ceased to offer a program in nursing. This program has evolved over the years but is still the broad base for all nursing education at the University of Utah. In 1958 the first graduate program in nursing was launched by the College. This was a graduate program with a major in psychiatric nursing leading to a Master of Science or Master of Arts Degree. In 1961 a gradu- ate program with a major in medical-surgical nursing was initiated. A third gr adna t e major, one in maternal and child nursing, has been approved to admit students in the autumn quarter of 1965. Beginning in 1956 the College of Nursing became the recipient of an increasing number of traineeship and teaching grants. Seven of these have been in continuous operation for several years, one is new this year, and three more are expected to be approved for inauguration next year. The recent rapid growth of the College of Nursing faculty is due to several factors. Increase in number of students in the baccalaureate pro- gram requires new sections of classes and additional faculty members to teach these sections. them. New graduate majors require faculty to teach in To date each new graduate major has received grant support to pro- vide salaries of from one to three faculty members and part-time to fulltime clerical help. Projected grants in most cases provide one or more faculty salaries and some clerical assistance. The increasing research activities in nursing are expected to create openings for graduate research assistants. In the area of student enrollments the pattern of the past seven years has been one of increase varying from 5 to 21 percent annually. Projecting a conservative 8 to 10 percent rate of increase for the next fourteen years - 13 ...... , produced the enrollment table presented in the introduction. It is possible that the future growth rate of student population may flatten out at some point in the future, but in view of increasing population in the United States and in Utah and of extended and improved health care, a flattenedout growth rate is not a situation to be desired. Within ten years the number of students in the College of Nursing can be expected to have nearly doubled the present registration of 233 to reach 446 full-time students; and if the faculty-student ratio remains constant, a faculty of 70 to 80 members can be projected. The estimates of student and faculty numbers provided to the United States Public Health Service reached fourteen years into the future and predicted 550 full-time students, undergraduate and graduate, 175 part-time students, mostly undergraduate, and 70 to 80 faculty members. C. JUSTIFICATION. A new building is needed to house the College of Nursing because the numbers of programs, students, and faculty are increasing rapidly and because the physical facilities used in the past are either being closed or scheduled for demolition. College of Nursing teaching facilities and faculty have in the past been scattered over a wide geographical area and this has been an obstacle to unified functioning of the faculty and to implementation of the curriculum. The College of Nursing is closely related to the University community through bac ca l.aur eat;e students in general education and through graduate students in their minors. There is active faculty participation on various councils and University committees. The College is closely related to the University Medical Center through the clinical practice of students, - 14 clinical faculty members, and faculty membership on joint committees and ; . projects. Joint medical-nursing activities and relationships are expected to increase when greater proximity of location is achieved. The human development laboratory, planned for joint use by the baccalaureate and graduate programs, is a noteworthy addition to the College of Nursing facilities. It will replace scattered contracted facilities for student observation of normal and abnormal human development. These facilities have never been adequate or very satisfactory in the past because shared with so many students of other disciplines that scheduling of time was difficult, the travel time required was wasteful, and participation had to be planned largely to serve the objectives of the contracting facility rather than the objectives of the College of Nursing programs. Cooperation with other agencies and disciplines will continue, but in the human development laboratory the focus will be upon meeting the needs of students in the nursing programs. D. FUNCTION One of the academic objectives of the University is to provide educa- tion for the professions at both basic and advanced levels. The College of Nursing building is as important in promoting the function of professional education as are other specialized buildings. Each discipline requires types of laboratories and other facilities peculiar to its own needs and can operate most effectively when these facilities are brought together in one central location. E. RELATIONSHIPS. A relatively close relationship exists between the general education and professional education components of the basic and graduate nursing - 15 programs. In terms of distance this requires that the College of Nursing building be close enough to other teaching and library facilities for students to reach them in the period of time normally allowed between classes. The distance to the University Hospital should be much less for not only is travel time needed but also time for change into or out of hospital uniform and for such handwashing or other routines considered necessary to prevent the spread of possible infective agents. When clinical or field experience facilities are at a distance from the campus, it becomes the responsibility of the College of Nursing faculty to schedule activities with due allowance for travel time. Good interior relationships within the College are essential to its smooth functioning. To this end a reception area and most of the bacca- laureate program classrooms have been proposed for the ground floor of the building. The human development laboratory, a large multipurpose demonstra- tion unit, the public health nursing and rehabilitation laboratory and baccalaureate faculty offices should be in close proximity to each other and convenient to the main building entrances. Other facilities, such as administrative offices, a faculty lounge, and research spaces, should also be closely related to each other. The seminar rooms of the four graduate majors and the graduate laboratories should be functionally related but not necessarily close to main building entrances since heavy traffic patterns are not aP.ticipated here. F. STAFF. The College of Nursing building is planned to accommodate a maximum of 550 full-time students (440 undergraduate and 110 graduate), 175 part-time students, mostly in the baccalaureate program, a faculty of 75 to 80 - 16 members, and a clerical staff of 15 to 20. ; . Summer use of facilities for institutes, workshops, other forms of continuing education, and for research is planned. G. EMPLOYEES. In addition to the 15 to 20 secretaries, receptionists, and clerk- typists mentioned under "Staff" above, 4 to 8 student assistants, research assistants or research fellows probably on a part-time basis may be employed. - 17 UNIVERSITY OF UTAH COLLEGE OF NURSING TOTAL BUILDING SPACE SUMMARY Faculty Estimates Square Feet A.

IDENTIFICATION OF DIVISION. Administrative Division. B. HISTORY. When the College of Nursing was first established there was no administrative division as such. The Dean of the College, the faculty coordinnt-ur,:, for the participating hospitals and the General Education Counselor carried the official administrative functions. An advisory council made up of the faculty, the directors of nursing and educational directors at the cooperating hospitals and public health nursing agencies met quarterly to discuss and recommend policies and operational procedures. During the period 1948- 1956 an administrative structure was gradually evolved to deal with increased student enrollment and larger faculty. With the addition of graduate programs and traineeship and teaching grants in the 1956-1957-1958 period, administrative organization was expanded to include a Director of Baccalaureate Programs, a Director of Graduate Programs, a Director of Traineeship ana Teaching Grants, and a Director of Research. Later an assistant to the Director of Baccalaureate Programs was added and a Director of Continuing Education. The Advisory Council whkh functioned when the faculty was small was discontinued as a council but representatives of clinical facilities and field agencies continued to ~eet with the subdivisions of the Curriculum Committee to consider matters in the areas to which they were related. In the first ten years of operation of the College, the short-term objectives were focused almost entirely on building and consistently - 22 improving a sound basic nursing program leading to the Bachelor of Science Degree. There was, however, from the beginning a long-range objective for the development of graduate programs in nursing. Current objectives include continued strengthening of the baccalaureate and graduate programs, continuing education, and nursing research. Existing facilities for achieving these objectives are highly inadequate. Limiting discussion here to the administrative division only, the present arrangements with some administrative personnel at several connnunity hospitals and others in Building 430 make communication difficult and lead to waste of time in travel. After July 1 some administrative personnel will be located in the Medical Center, some in Building 430, and some in Building 105. Present reception and communication areas are crowded. The faculty room, which was once reasonably well adapted to Faculty and Curriculum Committee meetinrs is not large enough to hold the present thirty-three faculty mem)ers. There is no faculty lounge for relaxation and informal meetings. Storage space and duplicating facilities are cramped and incon- venient. The space needed for administration of the College of Nursing is outlined in the space summary section of the administrative division write-up and totals more than 7,500 square feet in contrast to the approximately 3,000 square feet now in use but scheduled for demolition with the passing of Building 430. C. JUSTIFICATION. The administration of a college requires adequate personnel and physi- cal facilities in which to perform administrative functions effectively. Administrative functions are particularly'extensive and diverse in the - 23 College of Nursing because many of its teaching laboratories are and will continue to be the clinical wards of not less than eight local hospitals, five public health nursing agencies, and a varying number of nursing homes and special clinics. Not only must agreements be negotiated with these institutions and agencies, but good public and professional relationships must be built and maintained, and frequent joint planning sessions conducted in the interest of consistent improvement of the educational program. The Dean and a considerable number of other faculty members spend many hours in these activities which are not shown in reports of teaching loads. The administration of federal training grants, research projects, and traineeships involves a large number of faculty members and requires meticulous records and reports and repeated contact with the Office of the Controller, that of the Coordinator of Cooperative Research, and top University administration. Budget preparation and administration, faculty recruitment and promotions, preparation of catalog and other printed materials all fall within the administrative area. Administrative functions have multiplied rapidly in the past ten years and it is anticipated that as student numbers double, new graduate programs are initiated and research activities expanded, the administrative division must also expand to direct and coordinate the work of the College. Having all of the major administrative functions performed in one division and, except for the reception area, on one floor should promote effective operation and reduce administrative costs. - 24 D.

Room Identification Men's and Women's Toilets. B. Area As required. c. Occupants While no effort is being made to program toilet facilities, it is believed that they should be planned by floors rather than academic divisions. In the Administrative Division there will be officed about 45 women and 2 or 3 men. Coming in for conferences, usually of short duration, possibly 50 women and 2 or 3 men might be expected daily, but not continuously. There will be peak periods for students and visitors. Very limited toilet facilities for men should be adequate. Provision for not less than a population of 50 women will be needed. There should be toilet facilities for women near the Dean's conference room and faculty lounge, which are adjacent to each other. ., \ ., " - 58 College of Nursing Administrative Division Space Request Summary Net Square Feet 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 240 240 192 240 Visitors' waiting area Mail, information and communication room Audio-visual storage room Television control room Viewing room Office of the Dean Office of secretary to Dean Dean's conference room Faculty lounge Employees' conference room , Storage record room Current record room Duplication and copy room Sign-out equipment storage Central office supply storage Waiting area for students Fourteen standard faculty offices.
