Judith Louise McNeil One of the young Canadians of Ice- landic ancestry who graduated in the spring of 1960 is Judith Louise McNeil of Windsor, Ont. Judith was born in Winnipeg, Man., and moved to Wind- sor with her parents Solveig and Louis McNeil shortly after the conclusion of World War II. Her mother is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gudmundur M. Bjarnason of Winnipeg. Judith proved to be a student of high ability and because of this was accepted as a student nurse at the Metropolitan General Hospital. This hospital offers a course of nursing planned on a newer pattern of nurs- ing education. This school which was begun in 1954 is aided by Dominion and Provincial grants, and because of its high requirements enrolls only a small class every year. Judith graduated in June 1960 and obtained her RN. the following November.
