Loma Linda Graduates

By Newton Evans, M. D.

ALL our people will be interested to know that the present year the graduates of the College of Medical Evangelists have again made excellent records in their examinations before the State boards of examiners.

In the month of June eight of the graduates in medicine took State board examinations. Seven of these were in California, and one was in the State of Oregon. All these graduates passed their examinations with excellent grades.

At the same time, in the month of June, eight of our graduates from the Nurses’ Training School took the State board examinations for nurses, and all passed with excellent grades.

Among the one hundred and ninety-seven who took this nurses’ examination in California, graduates of sixty-three different training schools, there was only one school whose graduates made a better showing than the Loma Linda graduates. This was the training school at St. Helena Sanitarium. Nine of their graduates took the examination without any failures. No other school in the State reached so good an average.
