Nursing professor to study empathy USC nursing professor Carol Williams has received a grant worth $107,384 to identify the factors that stifle or encourage an empathetic response in nurses. Williams believes her research may be used by health professionals to foster empathy in difficult situations, such as emergency room care.

"Your Partner In Education" Mailout eri By ED YOUNG Staff writer USC's failure to mail registration appointment cards to the College of Nursing has caused complaints from some nursing students. The nrnhlpm r*?enlt/?H f rnm human error rather than computer error, said Maxey Taylor, manager of the Student Information Systems of Computer Services. "We had a mix-up on our site designations for our undergraduate nursing students. The university has nine campuses and there was a fault in our code set in the actual assignments of those students," Taylor said. She said the mistake has been corrected and a new mechanism will enable the computer center to cross-check those site ! designations. Students who did not receive appointment caras were reierrea to the appointment station at registration in the Coliseum. They were assigned a new appointment time according to their social security number. Registrar Luther Gunter said he didn't think the mistake was a problem they couldn't correct.
