John J. Spitzer. A.B.. M.D Professor Phvsiolovv . Cu IN ACKNOWLEDGEM ENT To provide thc lincst quality of postgraduate education should he the primary goal ofa medical college. This ide- al is. in reality. quite dillicult to achieve. Good instructors are qi scarce commodity in any discipline, and the teaching of medicine is perhaps unrivaled in the difficulty of the subject matter. Furthermore. the qualified individ- ual is constantly attracted by fascinating and time-con- suming pursuits in research. patient care. and administra- tion. which provide more renown and better remunera- tion. While teaching is considered in the highest regard philosophically. an instructor is usually evaluated by his administrative position. the size of his medical practice. or the extent of his publications. Unfortunately. even the most stimulating and qualilied instructor is of little value to the medical student unless this sophist has considerable time to dedicate to teaching. We would like to acknowledge the immeasurable con- tribution made by many of our teachers. Following a poll of our classmates. the 1966 Medic wishes to extol fifteen doctors for excellence in the art of teaching. These men have encouraged an academic environment like unto an association of scholars. George G. Westerman Sam Gould Jewell L. Ostcrholm. M.D. Senior Instructor. Surgery Joseph R. DiPalma. B.S..
