Rear Row —Dr. Michelson, Dr. Spielman, Dr. Frothingham, Dr. Alford, Dr. Pan, Dr. Chernin, Dr. Burnett. Front Row —Mrs. Butler, Dr. Weller. T hose of us in the Department of Tropical Public Health find our interests focused on the ever expanding list of infectious agents that attack mankind, and particu¬ larly on the ecological determinants of the diseases they produce. In a brief summary, it is possible to express specific priorities of interest in such a multifaceted area only in general terms. At the top of the general list must come the primary responsibility of any academic institution, namely, the task of attempting to improve our teaching program so as better to disseminate relevant knowledge, to our student body and to colleagues in other disciplines. Our teaching obligations increase as old infectious dis¬ ease problems reappear in new forms—at a time when it is fashionable to de-emphasize the teaching of infectious disease at all educational levels in medicine and public health. A second obligation inherent in an academic environment is the development of new knowledge, and particularly of knowledge that is immediately relevant to the solution of pressing health problems. We look with pride, for example, on the con¬ tributions of our research group that for the past ten years has focused on schisto¬ somiasis, and has now achieved a worldwide reputation for pioneering research on this most important parasitic disease. A final obligation deals with the responsibility to perpetuate and improve the sub¬ stance and philosophy of our program. Thus, we are involved in a variety of programs that literally are global in extent. These range from the recruitment of medical stu¬ dents through the provision of field experience in developing areas, to the acceptance of a direct role in the molding of scientific and other decisions at various levels via service with national and international consultant groups. In line with this objective, it is our hope that the Class of 1964, as a consequence of the mutually stimulating interaction that should characterize the student-teacher relationship, will have found something of philosophical as well as factual value in our offering.
