title: [Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul School of Nursing: open doors].
abstract: This paper aims at reporting the experience undergone upon the third edition of the "UFRGS Open Doors" event held at the School of Nursing of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (EEUFRGS) in 2005. The event was planned, scheduled, and organized by its authors. The university defines this activity as an action that provides the opportunity of an approach between society and university. The EEUFRGS received 119 visitors, who participated in health, education and information activities about the nursing undergraduate course and what the profession involves. This event gives visibility to nurses' social practice and to the School of Nursing, and it has been repeated and updated every year.
