PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, October 27, 1987 -- 33 Nancy Green, a graduate of Cartwright High School in Blackstock, admits she was a bit nervous about attending univer- sity. But now she wonders just who made up the "horror stories" about universities being cold and impersonal places. (See story). Student is doing well Nancy Green was nervous about going to university. She heard hor- ror stories. Did they come true? No. And Nancy Green, a Cartwright High School graduate, wonders who made up the stories. "I heard university was a cold place where no one cared about you," says Nancy, a first year Queen's University nursing science student. 'But it's not true. Here it is So easy to meet people." She says her concern was being so young and attending university. "I'm only 17 and most people think that is too young," she ex- plains. "But I was prepared." Nancy and thirty others from across the country came to Queen's at the top of their class. She won the prestigious Honour Marticulation Scholarship ---- awarded to students with top flight high school marks. The Ontario Scholar also won several subject awards. In high school, Nancy did everything from edit the school yearbook, work in the junior farmers club and candy stripe after class. "I always wanted to be a nurse," says Nancy. "But I want to be more than a nurse on a ward. Maybe I'll do post graduate work in nursing or nurse in another country." She says the best part of univer- sity is the freedom. "I like the freedom you get at university," she says. "No one is watching you to see if your work is done. You are on your own ---- but not alone." Nancy is the daughter of Don and Marjorie Green, R.R. 1, Blackstock. Hwy i country Lane ALY TIMIETED 7A & High Street, Port Perry, Ontario "The only way to have a friend is to be one."
