THE J A Y H A H. 1 li .III 1 . . . from the CITY CAMPUS JIM si ssl . OX I! REMOVED. WHITES US HIS PERSONAL IMPRESSIONS OF THE MEDICAL SCHOOL Dear Jim: Well. I hope you are comfortably settled in old K. C. for a eouple of years, after your four and a half on the slow-going Lawrence campus! And I ' m not just inquiring ahout your health for nothing heavens, no. I ' m wondering if you could take time off from cutting people up, and write the Medical School article for the Spring Jayhawker? Don ' t he formal about it just give us your personal impressions of goings-on. I ' ll be looking forward to your reply. Yours, Richard. Dear Richard : Here I am on the Kansas City edge of Mount Oread, and believe me if the buildings we have here were moved into Lawrence, it would take a lot of WPA workers a long time to enlarge the Hill enough to accommodate them. Down here we tell out-state people we are at the K. U. Hospitals; and to the local people we are at Bell Memorial (which is just one unit of the place ) ; but to us it ' s just the hospital. It seemed like home from the first day I walked down the long quiet corridors, because K. U. peo- ple started popping up right away. Of course I was prepared to see the medics hanging around, but I was surprised to see the class of ' 38 repre- sented by Rose McVey, who asserts she is private secretary, receptionist, and flunky for the super- intendent. In front of the business office (yes, there ' s one here too and they relieve you of your money even faster because the line is shorter), who should walk up but Betty Barnes and Charlotte Stafford, roommates and student technicians here. By the end of the day I was convinced that a big chunk of K. U. moves up here every year. School is still school, and classes are more or less compulsory (unless the poor beaten medic can bluff his way into the student infirmary which incidentally is just across the corridor from the same place for the nurses h ' liim). but a different attitude prevails, class-cutting still goes on, but with a new angle. The sophomores ml their lunch hour to go to the senior clinic to watch cases being presented! . . . Oh. we cu this course and that and feel very sorry for our- selves on the exam days, but the average day of the medic isn ' t so bad. For your lay mind, Richard, I think I ' ll just outline that day. He the medic start- to school at 8:00 and bangs through a couple of lectures, after which, till noon, he ' ll probal l lie found in a clinic of some sort where he gets to look at, question, and examine patients first-hand under the scrutinizing eye of a friendly, but nom-- the-less strict M. D. At noon some senior presents a patient, ex- plains his case, and makes a diagnosis, and tin- juniors do likewise in another building. 1 :30 lectures are slept through, unfortunately, with the same regularity that establishes the practice as a tradition on the Hill. Until 5:00 various labs and clinics keep one awake and interested. One afternoon a week the juniors review their pathology with a session in which the various internal parts of a diseased body are studied. Tin- session is popularly known as an organ recital. We pick up our glamour by strolling through the corridors past the laiety with a knowing look on our faces and an identifying stethoscope. Where one wears this last piece of equipment (so it ' s said) identifies the class to which he be- longs. A sophomore wears his around his neck, a junior carries it in his pocket, and a x-uior doesn ' t carry his at all. I wish you ' d come over and let me show oii through the place. Every man over here is in- tensely proud of it, and we like nothing better than to show it off to someone who doesn ' t real- ize a lot of K. U. is in Kansas City. We like to think of you happy college guys and gals a? fellow students, and we like to have you collider us the same. Yours, Jim. Dr.) Dr.): Dr.l Dr.P Dr. R Dr.R Dr.Ji Dr.L Dr.F Dr.E Dr.R Dr.J.
