Irma Rogers nursing school scrapbook

Visual Materials

This disbound scrapbook documents the student experience of Irma Rogers at Paradise Valley Sanitarium and Hospital School of Nursing, 1944 to 1947, in National City, San Diego County, California. The scrapbook contains photographs, notes from fellow students, copies of the school newsletter, graduation cards, memorabilia, and official correspondence from the school. It includes Rogers' 1944 acceptance letter; school evaluations; and her Registered Nurse certificate, 1947. Five issues of the school newsletter describe school activities, students, instructors, and where graduates are working. Much of the album contains snapshots of Rogers and her student friends with humorous captions, and there are some group photographs of nurses, including a group of Asian nurses with American soldiers. A clipping from 1967 announces the 20-year reunion of the class of 1947. Also of note is an inscription from a student who signs her name using gay slang.
