Richard E. Eby. D.O.-President E RECOGNIZE the reduction of human suffering as a constant challenge in our changing world, while the privilege of sharing in its accomplishment remains a constant prayer. At Kansas City College of Osteopathy and Surgery, our faculty and students are dedicated to serve society by promoting family health care through as comprehensive a training program as the four predoctoral years will permit. The osteopathic philosophy of health care explains that the art of applying scientific medical findings, from any source, presupposes a fundamental respect for the innate ability of the human creature to repair its remedial damages. This philosophy places the physician in his proper role as an assistant, rather than the inventor of healing processes. It requires a humble appraisal of all knowledge, rather than any politi- cally arrogant enunciation of limited or merely expedient therapies. It implies the transitory nature of human understanding, and accepts the need for imaginative inquiry and tolerant appreciation as new information is exposed and defined. We offer the predoctoral student an opportunity to prepare for the needed services involved in family health care. Our emphasis is upon a comprehensive curriculum as opposed to an initial goal of specialization. We believe that no physician should be denied the unique osteopathic contribution of studying and utilizing the inter-relationships of structure and function, so vital in the diagnosis and therapy of' disease. Therefore, a permeating concept of the whole man approach to health problems pervades the basic and clinical studies here. In this way, we broadly prepare our student doctors for roles as physicians and surg-eons. Each D.O. inherits a legacy of distinctive health service, and assumes a solemn stewardship of public trust and confidence. To these rewarding goals we are committed.
