In addition, if we still held any awe for our professors and their teaching ability, it decreased as rapidly as did attendance at early morning lectures. People were getting to know one another with increasing intimacy. Notetakers, who dared not record anything outside the subject of the lecture, now added their own com- ments, both comical and political - and were encouraged to do so by the other members of the class. Often, those comments were read with greater intensity than the lecture notes. The conquering of initial subjects only led us to Microbiology and Physiology, and the beginning of foreign accents: a Grecian slant from Angelakos, a Boston slur from Torres, and Wally Cox from Snipes. Our medical friends at Penn and Temple and Jefferson were still concentrating on our beginning subjects - how could we have learned it all in a mere twelve weeks? The Philadelphia winter set in with usual gloom, adding to that of our class as studying became more difficult, an increased number of disciplines to be mastered. Worse yet, the Arabs launched an oil embargo, gas prices rose, and there was talk of tearing down Ben- ny's. Thoughts of Christmas overcame the de- pression many of us suffered that first winter, the chance to see old friends and be free of Hahnemann for ten days. But an exam was just beyond that holiday season - could we be expected to study? 7

The most important part of our freshman year loomed ahead: examination of hospital patients. Before we attempted this ileecing of sick people, we had to undergo ll1ll1IlCIllilllll,S course on Clinical Science: a series of lec- tures by noted dignitaries in their field Ccan Bernie Segal do an imitation of trigeminy in a yellow-bellied sapsucke-r?J that went com- pletely over our heads because of their esoteric nature and their unintelligible deliv- ery COtero and the Eye womanj. Before we did a number on others, the leaders of our course felt that practice exams on each other would be beneficial. On Satur- day moming, in little cubicles, we examined the abdomen, some experienced this quite traumatically, facing a nun as a partner. The males in our class never did learn to examine a womanis breasts, but we all did pelvic exams on pastic models in a moldy room in the Hotel Philadelphia, making it seem ex- tremely obscene and somewhat illegal. More important than the acquisition of physi- cal exam skills was the mental maturity each of us had to experience in learning to deal with the human body. A physician enjoys the unique right to probe all the orifices of a pa- tient, the art of medicine is partly dealing with the patients' anxieties about that rape. More to the point, we learn how to deal with our own anxieties and guilts. A hospital is so very depressing and sterile to the patients Within, our first time in it, we felt more like a patient than did those unfor- tunate people we bored with endless lists of questions. Many of those patients recognized our insecurities and were wise enough to help us learn, others exercised their right of refusal. Oh yes - it happened to many of us when asking What brought you to the hospi- tali' that the response was a taxi-cabf, 9
