Flashback: Nurse’s Cap and Cape, 1946 Vintage
A Reunion Just Waiting to Happen
Alumni Honors

Muriel Schweer Wood '46, one of Wagner's first nursing graduates, donated her original nurse's cap and wool cape to the Evelyn L. Spiro School of Nursing. Wagner's nursing program was founded in 1943 in cooperation with the U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps to address wartime medical needs. The nursing program was celebrated at Reunion in June 2011, marking the 65th anniversary of Wood's class's graduation.
