Mark Rubenstein, D.D.S. Mark Rubenstein, who is a native New Yorker came to us from Brooklyn College, where he majored in chemistry. Before coming to Georgetown, Mark worked as an analytical chemist for a dental pharmaceutical company. While studying dentistry Mark has kept his sanity by playing racquetball every chance he gets. Mark also enjoys photography, traveling and camping. His favorite tour was Radiology while all the rest were tied for second place. His immediate practice plans are to complete a residency out west and then set up a private general practice there. Mark wishes to thank his wife, Michele for staying with him through the hardest years of his life and making them more bearable. He also wishes to thank his parents for their constant support of every kind and making it possible for him to reach his goal.

Ken Rothschild, D.D.S. I think I'm ready now for the looney bin. Perhaps my critics were right. Being the only Midwesterner in our class launched me into this unique identity crisis back in freshman year which I have yet to recover from. Lord knows I tried to cope with it. My bluegrass records came across in sophomore lab about as well as my cowboy hat did in the clinic tthis cowboy doesn't wear whitej. They even made me wear shoes during hours. But I persevered. Through histology. By microbiology. Around rush hour traffic and, yes, even through the glorious long summer nights in my non-air-conditioned attic bedroom. I guess I'm supposed to say now that I would do it all over again if I had to. That it was all worth it and even though the work was difficult, the money tight and my patience thin, it was a good learning experience academically, culturally and socially. Iust hold it right there. I've waited for four years to blow off steam and tell everything that moves how tough these years have been and how thankful I am that they're over. Four long years of counting the months until graduation and then exploding. But I can't. A severe anti-climax. So I guess I am crazy. Or perhaps just pleasantly dissuaded. But what the hell - it feels good. For all those interested my crystal ball reveals two years in the Public Health Service followed by either twenty-eight more years in the Public I-Iealth Service, a private practice lost somewhere in the Rocky Mountains or becoming a trapper in Alaska. Getting back to reality, obligations and all that stuff I would like to take time to dedicate this page as well as my four years here to my family, banjo, strong coffee, my faithful Cutlass and motorcycle, Colombia, my softballers, Great Falls Park, and Mary for without their help I would have withered long ago.

0 it f 1 ,L -u- Wwlnig, Vincent T. Saracco, D.D.S. When just a tot Vince lived in the Bronx and then one day made the great trek from suburbia to the town of New City, N.Y. Even- tually, Vince attended the State University of New York at Albany and is quick to point out that those were the worst four years of his life fso farj. Vince has found his stay at Georgetown immeasurably more enjoyable. In his spare time at Georgetown, Vince might have been found playing basketball at the Hardy School or down at the school gym, working at the medical library, drinking at the George- town Pub, or just checking out the city of Washington. Vince's plans upon graduation are uncertain, but he is leaning toward doing a general practice residency in New York Gity. Vince dedicates this page to no one. He feels that too little time and thought went into this page to be worthy of dedication to anyone he loves. Instead, Vince dedicates his future dental practice to his ever-loving parents, sisters Felice and Nancy, brother john and all his relatives and friends. i - 'I
