ne e emopd Four years completed. Four years in which everyone of us has run the gamut of human emotions. We have passed through periods of occasional joy and have plummeted to the depths of despair. Our human resistance has been tried and stretched to the breaking point; a few fal- tered, but the majority of us are here to taste the fruits of our labor.

In histology we were told that we were not expected to be artists, but only to draw what we saw in the micro- scope.
