A great part ot the instruction in Medicine that forms the transi- tion irom classroom to clinic, the translation of thought into action, occurs at the bedside and in the informal conference. It takes a unique individual with a special dedication to be able to convey knowledge in these often adverse situations. Such an individual is Newlin F. Paxson. A true gentleman, he has shown us the value of tact, graciousness and dignity. As an administrator he has demonstrated interest in following the advances of Medicine, As a teacher and clinician, Dr. Paxson has revealed a thorough grasp of his field, a ready wit, and open mind, and an understanding heart. Because of his vital position in our education, we, the Class of 1962, dedicate our MEDIC to Dr. Newlin F. Paxson. d f if.. 15' x..' ,- z ' V l J ,v F J .lm ' dication NEWLIN F.

rlllv'-'I ,- ,gn-at ' Y Y Y 1 , the class of 1962 ...... . . -...1, ...-....-....,,-4'- The class of l952 is the first graduating class since I have been privileged to be Dean of this school, As you prepare to take your leave I hope you will reflect on the many things we are trying to accomplish here. The goals of medical education are far more vast in 1962 than they were in 1942, and the responsibilities of every institution for higher learning have stretched from those of service to its own community to encompass obligations to our country and, indeed, to the entire world. By virtue of your parchment it is your right to insist that your school meet its obligations to this nation and the world by providing progressive educational programs in medicine, in the graduate sciences and the para-medical fields. and also by promoting the profession of medicine through scientific research. By virtue of their appointment the faculty can expect your support and encouragement. This can be given best by maintaining an awareness and interest in our endeavors and by interpreting our purposes for the under- standing of others. More than anything else you can serve our cause by setting excellence as your own goal. With these responsibilities clear in mind, with recognition that you will soon be alumni of a school with an excellent faculty, a curriculum which is being constantly revised to meet the demands of our modern society, a pro- gram in scholarly research which is envied by many and an ever developing sense to serve our nation and the world, I urge you to take up the duties of a physician. Apply the techniques you have been given. Enrich them by remain- ing a perpetual student. And always remember you are the product of this school. In your accomplishments will rest the final judgment of the greatness of this College. You have our best wishes for your success. God bless you! WILLIAM F.
