Note
Pin owner Janet Raman, RN: "Pin given for the Bronx Community College nursing program for the Associate in Applied Science degree. Pinned by boyfriend at a party sponsored by SON in catering hall. When I was pinned in 1976 we were also provided with the fabric stripes (school colors) for our caps which we had worn plain while in clinicals. Worked as a staff nurse, with some other minor roles for 40 years, NP and Nurse Educator for 20 years."
