Talk:Palestine College of Nursing

Original name
The original name of the college, according to the Arabic version of the article, is "school of the hukama and hakimat." This is a delicate translation, but either way, "school of nurses" isn't accurate. Hukama could be used to refer to doctors in older, pre-colonial forms of Arabic, but in context it might not quite make sense. "Old wise men" or "philosophers" also wouldn't make sense. I'm not entirely sure what translation would be the most accurate one for the original name back in 1976, but I'm sure that "nurses" isn't accurate. MezzoMezzo (talk) 07:44, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
