HE Hahnemann Medical College has witnessed the passing of ninety years devoted to the nexus of human art and endeavor-medicine. The Class ofl958 is a product of these ninety years. Human forces are unchanging. Though we have been enriched by tradition and the experiences of those who mixed in the ebb and flow of life before us, the basic laws of life govern us as they did the lives of the very first graduating class. This volume, then, is not a cry of the present. Its pages, depicting the present, echo the past. Pre- pared by the Class of 1958, it stands as a permanent record of their years at Hahne- mann. The desire to stamp with permanence the fleeting events of the present is a com- mon human weakness. We frankly admit to that failing. Surely all that has so quickly slipped by during the past four years can not be entrusted to the vagaries of individual memory. It is the aim of this particular volume of THE MEDIC to add to the tradition of Hahnemann by record- ing the events of the present, and to detail faces and facts so as to preserve them against the mighty erosion of Time. JOHN CHARLES WHITAKER, Editor.
