But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning. . .U Winston Churchill by Joseph Hildner We all had expectations. Plenty of them. It would have been impossible to arrive at medical school without at least some amount of wonder- ing what we were in for, imagining what it would be like-what We would be like. Were the horror stories true? Would there be oppressive loads of data? Inhuman hours? Suspension of the joys of youth in favor of an indefinite period of self- flagellation? We took comfort in Loyola's com- paratively low attrition rate, in recollection of interview day: That tour guide didn't seem so miserable. The more we were able to convince ourselves that we might not become buried in books, however, the more likely it appeared that we would indeed become buried in debt. We heard that when these years of hard work were over, rather than finally taking control of our own lives, we would instead be told by a computer where to go next: a place where the hours were longer, the work even harder. We read about the projected glut of physicians, the increasing threat of lawsuit. But then, almost mercifully, it happened. We actually became medical students. And thus began the steady series of realizations that 4 Opening this was not like anything we had ever imagined. Many of us had taken a taste of the real world between college graduation and entering Loyola-Stritch. But for most of us, July of 1982 marked yet one more in an unbroken streak of back-to-back years spent going to school--the seventeenth grade, so to speak. But as with each previous change to a new school, many things seemed very different. Certainly, one of the most notable differences between college and medical school was the simple matter of classmates. After having spent four years among a pack of neurotic, competitive, slobbering pre-med students clam- mering over each other in hopes of finishing on the top of' the heap, one had cause to ask that first day at Stritch, Where are all the nerds? One might have expected from that heap of pre-meds, that the ones we would actually meet in medical school would be the pre-meddest of alll Instead, as we funnelled into that first Anatomy class, we discovered fascinating and delightful diversity. From Rhode Island to California, from Washington State to Florida, they came: A girl with her hair dyed pink in the seat ahead . A mountainous defensive tackle who played varsity football on National T.V. to the left. A born-again Christian on the right. A harp- player. An expert at darts. A wife-mother-phle- botomist-med student. Marathon runners. Phar- macists. Pool sharks. Rock guitarists who helped pay tuition through regular engagements at clubs and Weddings. Undergraduate majors of all kinds. All of us sat together, day after day, and wrote down facts Camong them, one might recall, was A plexus is an intricately interwoven, complex network of lymphatics, nerves, or vessels. . . J. These facts bore very little inherent signifi- cance at first. Patients were only those people we saw getting in and out of taxis while we were down buying Hi-lighters in the gift shop. They didn't seem to matter much when our greatest responsi- bility was to memorize the location of the lateral geniculate body or count ATP's formed in the Pentose Phosphate Shunt. But the facts kept coming, and we kept writing them down. Day after day. Week after week. Month after month. We kept monotony in check, however, with plenty of out-of-class socializing, and even a good bit of humor in school: Coop notes routinely interjected a good dose of personal philosophy or an appropriate comic. Costume-clad Histology profs on test-day near Halloween who left plates Would there be oppressive loads of data? Inhuman hours? Suspension of the joys of youth in favor of an indefinite period of self-Hagella tion ? of Reese 'S Pieces at rest stops during the practical exam helped relieve some of the pressure. And it was difficult to take Monday morning too seriously when it began with a fellow classmate using the lecturer's microphone to ask if anyone had found his pants which he'd lost during the party on Saturday. Opening 5 But time moved on and things got worse. Our third semester was probably the most aggressive onslaught of facts we were forced to endure. With deepening debt, a full year of classroomflibrary life to go before the clinical work, and Boards Part I standing obstinately in between, there were plenty of sober expressions. And it was then, when the data load was heaviest, that we began to learn much more than lecture material. It was an exceptional classmate who One had cause to ask that first day at Stritoh, Where are all the nerds?', did not gain personal insight into emotional stress. There was a while there when it seemed that the only times when a fellow student was not suspending his own studying to pull our spirits up out of depression to reality over a cup of coffee, were the times when we were doing the same for someone else. Perhaps more significantly than in Microbiology or Pharma- cology, those Basic Science years prepared us for patient care by driving home the special importance of compassion--as they put us on both the giving and needing ends of it with our friends. Those first years which we spent so physically close together were also especially effective at nurturing broadmindedness on our part. With class members bringing to Loyola so widely various interests and approaches to life, we couldn't help but at least become aware of alternative attitudes we might never have experienced otherwise. Just when academic demands were such that we were most prone to surrounding ourselves with ourselves fbecoming oblivious to everything else in the world except getting through our own stack of notesl something happened to put a stop to it: Someone would get on the microphone and encourage us to help out with Hunger Week, Amnesty International, a financial aid Phone-a-thon, etc., or the muse would strike and we'd find another edition of Stritchfng the Truth in our mailboxes. It also amused us to learn 6 Opening how many different styles of studying could success- fully achieve the same result! Late-night philoso- phizing in the wet-labs, study breaks in the cafeteria, and the discussions which ensued around the issues raised in the Medical Ethics course all served to further intensify the degree to which we grew to know each other. As familiar as we became in those first two years, there were elements in our classmates which we could only become aware of through sharing the experiences of the floors. Clinical clerkships were unlike anything we had done together in Basic Science in that each rotation seemed to feature a discrete few classmates for four or six weeks for us to intensively get to know. Racing past each other in the morning trying to examine each of our patients before rounds, scouring up labs, chasing down charts, we grew to have some understanding of the comrad- erie soldiers once felt having lived in the trenches together. We cringed as the other student got crucified on attending rounds or at morning reportg we got crucified ourselves. Similarly, we felt proud of each other in the times when we would come July of 1982 marked yet one more in an un broken streak of back- to-back years spent going to school- the seven teen th grade, so to speak. . . through with the right answers, or when we'd pick up a finding on physical exam which everyone else had missed. True, these changing relationships were not always positive. There were times when other It was an exceptional classmate who did not gain personal insight into emotional stress. students on the service could kiss up to the attendings beyond human belief, stealing answers to questions directed to someone else, showing the others up at every opportunity. There were times when, out of the corner of your eye, you'd notice how another student examined the patient in the bed adjacent to your own patientg or when you'd come on service picking up a patient who had been followed by another student. In times like these, the respect we held for one another either increased or diminished, but in either case, we were seeing- and showing-our true colors. However, when that train-wreck admission comes to you at 4:15 on Friday when another student is on call, and that student takes the case for you-a certain bond is formed which can never be completely broken. It was during the clerkships that those empty facts we'd spent so much time memorizing in the first two years took on their true significance. Cystic Fibrosis was no longer a two-and-a-half- page coop with a few sentences marked yellow somewhere in your pathology notebook. It was the murderer of the child you had grown so attached to in Pediatrics. And who among us did not shudder when the reality of lymphoma was driven home? Among the most important learning we ac- complished on the floors were the endless lessons we'd been taught about ourselves. We were forced to come in intimate touch with our own weaknesses and limitations, as we were reminded of them daily and forced to pay for them. We learned-after all we spewed about ourselves in those med school applications-how we really feel about sick people. We developed a strong sense of pride in looking back over our many venerable accomplishments. In doing so, we learned also that our limitations could be improved, some even eliminated. Failures at first, we developed by sink or swim method, skills in efficiency, time-management, decision-making, triage, and simple self-defense. Even the coldest and most distant class member did not get through this alone. We were there for each other when things were rough, during marital turmoil, deaths of family, roommate problems, unsuccessful pregnancy, depression. We shared the excitement of engagements, marriages, the birth of a child, Match Day. We experienced each other in almost any imaginable circumstance! We felt each other fail. We watched each other succeed. We saw each other in boxer shorts and three-piece suits, in scrubs post-call and in bars post-boards, there was St. Lucia, white-water rafting, AMSA trips to Colorado, endless dinners at each other's homes. In short, we learned a hell of a lot more in medical school than appears in National Medical Board Exams. And perhaps the most special things we grew to know were ourselves, and each other. We came together as a group of medical students for the first time in Anatomy class where we were introduced not only to such things as the brachial plexus, but to each other. After four years in which our experiences have woven us into an intimate network of complex relationships, we leave together as a group of physicians. At graduation, we become doctors for the first time. A plexus is an intricately interwoven, complex network. . . But it was during those four years together that we began to become doctors. lt is to the memory of this beginning, now at an end, that we dedicate this Plexus 1986. Opening 7 The History of Loyola-Stritch by Mathew Nora Loyola University was born in 1870 under the name of St. Ignatius College. By 1909 the enrollment at the school had declined, mainly because it was better known for its very successful college preparatory school, rather than as a college itself. So in this same year, St. Ignatius College followed the example of other Jesuit schools and expanded itself into a University. The school changed its name to Loyola University and moved to a new location on Chicago's north side. St. Ignatius Preparatory School re- mained at the old location to help maintain stability in the neighborhood, and continues to educate high school students today, at the original site of Loyola University. At the same time that the school upgraded itself to a university in hopes of attracting more collegiate students, the administrators also decided to begin a department of medicine. Bringing this change about was particularly challeng- ing, accomplished primarily by Rev. H. Spalding, S.J. the first regent of the school. The difficulties he faced in founding a medical school are best understood in light of the state medical education was in at the turn of the century. In 1909, medical education in Chicago was in flux in an attempt to correct some of the deficiencies of the late 1800's. Medical training in 1870 consisted of two school years, each lasting 20 weeks. The second year was largely a repeat of the first year. The majority of schools had no clinical curriculum, and requirements for en- trance varied greatly. Most did not even require four years of high school. Without any standardization of entrance requirements, curriculum, or facilities, the medical schools of Chicago represented a spectrum of quality. Some of the lesser schools were run strictly for profit, and were considered diploma mills. These were referred to as commercial schools, and were staffed by faculty who wanted the prestige and increased patient population which came to teaching physicians. Any group of physicians could easily create a medi- 8 History of Stritch cal school with minimal investment of time or money. One medical school was even operated out of a converted barn. In 1904 there were 15 day-schools in Chicago. There were also numerous night and correspondence medical schools. In addition to these, there existed irregular schools which includ- ed homeopathic, osteopathic, chiropodic and eclectic schools of medicine. All these schools could legally send gradu- ates out to practice medicine without any standard minimum qualifications. The number of medical schools oscillat- ed greatly, many existing for only a few years. The value of a medical diploma at this time might be appreciated from the following letter received by Rush Medi- cal College in 1910: Please accept of My hand writting though Ihavht been in touch with you as to write you before. But at this time I write you for a Diploma of being a family Doctor. I have purchased a family Medical Book from Sears Roebuck and I have studied it for two l2l years and I have been Examined by Doctor-and I Desires to Give Rush Medical College Honor of what I know, and that is why I asked for a Diploma from that College. I have been teaching for twelve 1121 years and I believe I am Prepaired to do the work. I will give you One Dollar and a half 081.502 for the Diploma ifyou will Except of M yreq uest Please let Me hear from you by return Mail. On the other hand, there did exist a minority of medical schools which were genuinely dedicated to improving the quality of medicine and physicians in Chicago. Dr. Nathan Davis, the founder of Chicago Medical College Clater to become Northwestern University Medi- cal Schooll was a leader of this move- ment to improve medical education in Chicago. He fought for minimum en- trance requirements: a high school de- gree and at least one year of college. He also felt that the school year should be extended from 20 weeks to six months, and that the length of studies should be increased from two to three years. He wanted to require that the curriculum include didactic teaching in the basic sciences, as well as clinical training. Dr. Davis also recommended that tuition for medical school be eliminated because the majority of students in Chicago were from poor midwest farming families. These recommendations were not Well received. This was because there were so many medical schools in the area that any given school feared that an increase in its entrance requirements might drive students away to the competition. In 1904 Dr. Davis' recommenda- tions received support when the AMA-- which happened to have been founded by Dr. Davis himself--created the coun- cil on medical education.This council eventually became the most powerful regulator of medical education in the country. The committee wanted medical schools to be graded as A, B, or C with CU schools being considered unsatisfac- tory. In order to have these evaluations considered objective, the committee requested the Carnegie foundation to perform these evaluations in 1910. The report, written by A. Flexnor, was devas- tating to Chicago area medical schools, describing the city as the plague spot of the country. The report stated that only three medical schools in Illinois should be allowed to remain open: Rush, North- western and College of Physicians and Surgeons Clater Univ. of Illinois Medical Schooll. These were the only three class A medical schools in Illinois. In light of the Flexnor report, the AMA felt that to improve medical education in Chicago the number of medical schools must be reduced. Although many of the claims of the Flexnor report were exaggerated, the report did help raise the standards of medical education in the city. In the next 15 years medical schools began to -require two years of college preparation, and a compulsory intern- ship before being licensed to practice. The report also put pressure on medical schools to affiliate with universities. This was beneficial to both parties, as it offered a given medical school the pres- tige of a university on its diploma, and gave the university a ready-made medi- cal department. The AMA encouraged this consolidation in hopes that the universities would improve the quality of teaching at their medical school. Ironically, at the very time when the Flexnor report was having medical schools closed, Loyola was attempting to establish its own medical department. So there was little sympathy, even hostility, towards its organization. Actually, Loyo- la was one of the first medical schools to follow the recommendations of the Flex- nor report. They raised their admission standards, offered more formal training in the basic sciences, and updated their facilities beyond the levels of some of the more established schools in Chicago. These efforts were ignored by the AMA. In fact the AMA eventually tried to have Loyola closed through subversive means as described below. Loyola administrators, in the prof cess of upgrading the school to a Univer- sity, decided to affiliate with Illinois Medical College KIMCJ in 1909. This, in effect, added a medical department to the school for the first time. Fr. Spalding, who had been a former regent of Mar- quette Medical School, was called upon to develop Loyola's medical school. IMC had been founded in 1894. It was housed in a three story building initially con- structed to be a hotel. Associated with IMC was Reliance Medical College. This was an evening medical school founded in 1907 which used the same faculty and building of IMC. Reliance was also incorporated into Loyola's medical de- partment. Fr. Spalding was approached in 1910 by the Bennett Medical School iBMSJ which was also interested in affiliating with Loyola University. By March of the same year, details had been worked out such that BMS bought out Reliance and IMC, thus becoming Loyo- la's medical depart.ment. BMS had been founded in 1868 as an eclectic school of medicine. The BMS hospital had to be closed to accommodate the new student body of 400 which resulted from the incorporation of the other two schools. The first graduating class in June of 1910 consisted of 62 graduates. 41 from Bennett and 21 from IMC. The students at this time did their clinical rotations at Jefferson Park Hospital which had a 90 bed capacity. f. inf 'gffi .Z Kal! . 44 I ,ff K 1 if Ill .

In 1915 BMS came under complete control of Loyola Uni- versity. The name Bennett was dropped from the title. This acquisition did not cost Loyola very much, as the BMS administrators had hoped Loyola would help it to become a class AH school. Soon after Loyola's affiliation with Bennett, the AMA began its attempts to close Loyola's medical department, or at least to drop it to a class C rating. The AMA had several reasons for their actions against BMS. First, Bennett was considered a class B school, but its affiliation with Loyola was evidence of BMS' efforts to improve what it felt to be an unjust rating. Secondly, BMS, Loyola's medical department, had the largest graduating class in the nation. This made Loyola appear to be a commercial medical school, existing primarily for profit more than for quality education. But the AMA would not acknowledge that BMS was as large as College Fees A matriculation fee of tive dollars will be charged on entering the college. Fee for first year .... ....

If they apply for graduation they will be re- quired to pay S50 additional and take examinations in the fourth or senior year studies. Laboratory fees 35.00 each. All fees are required to be paid in advance. it was as a result of its being a combina- tion of three medical schools. Loyola even gave its own entrance exam to evaluate its applicants more fully than neighboring schools, but the AMA view- ed this as a method to accept unqualified students. Lastly, Bennett had been founded as an eclectic school which was considered one of the irregular sects practicing medicine. The eclectic dogma denied therapy of bleeding, pur- gery, and emetics, which had been the main tools of regular physicians in the not too distant past. The eclectic motto was: Prove all things, and hold fast to that which is good. As medical knowl- edge advanced, all practicing sects had to adjust their teachings accordingly. BMS had actually been a regular medical school for many years, but kept its eclectic title in name only until 1908. Fr. Spalding, in his report on the beginning of Loyola's school of medicine, cited two examples of how the AMA tried to have Loyola closed. The first involved the AMA's bringing medical officials from Columbus to inspect BMS. These officials completely misrepre- sented BMS to the AMA. Fr. Spalding went to Ohio to defend Loyola's medical department. While there, he visited the medical school of the officials, and was surprised that they considered them- selves to be in a position to evaluate BMS when their institution was pro- foundly inferior to BMS in both facilities and standards. His meeting with the officials from Columbus and the AMA turned into one where the Columbus officials had to defend their medical school instead of Loyola defending Ben- nett. The second example was how the AMA sent a spy to attempt to be admitted into BMS. This man's mission was to try to be enrolled into BMS even though he was unqualified. The purpose of this was to demonstrate that BMS did not maintain its admission standards. The spy tried to weasle his way into the school by stating that his mother was dying, and that he Wanted to make her happy with proof of his entrance into medical school. This spy also took students to some of the lowest saloons on Madison street in an effort to get them to reveal damaging information about the school. Though this spy was never admitted to BMS, the AMA printed an article in the Chicago Tribune stating that Loyola accepted students without high school credits. After clash- ing with the AMA over similar issues for five years, Fr. Spalding sought legal help. These efforts were very fruitful, and Fr. Spalding was surprised with how harmo- nious the AMA became after they met with his lawyers. In 1917 Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery KCCMSJ became interested in uniting with Loyola's medical depart- ment. Though weakly affiliated with Valpariso University, CCMS was being hounded by the AMA to close because it was considered a commercial school. Fr. Spalding did not consider CCMS a commercial college because its buildings and equipment were maintained at the very best levels, limiting its profits. Loyola, which was looking for new facilities at this time, was enticed by the quality of CCMS' physical plant. The school consisted of three adjacent build- ings that were built originally as family dwellings. It was located across the street from Cook County Hospital, and in the center of many large medical clinics. Having opened in 1902, CCMS occupied the buildings that used to house the Women's Medical college of Chicago iWomen's Medical College had been bought by Northwestern in 1892 and moved to the N.U. campus.J. Loyola purchased CCMS for 5B85,000. Classes were begun at the new facilities in 1918. The medical school would continue to use this location for the next 43 years. Thus, in a short eight years C1909- 1918J Loyola assembled the componets of its medical school. Fr. Spalding had accomplished what the AMA wanted to accomplish: he closed four medical schools in forming Loyola's medical school. Approximately 15 years after Loyola founded its medical department, its rating was raised to class A. But, even while Loyola was rated as a class B school its graduates had one of the highest passing rates of the state medical exam of any medical school in the city. The classes in the early years at Loyola and most other medical schools in the country were structured similar to the six year programs that exist today. Students would attend two years of college, and then advance to medical school. By 1910, a medical degree could be obtained after four years of school, each year consisting of eight months of classes. This was a far cry from the two year curriculum of twenty weeks each, that existed in 1877. As with students today, the last two years of training were made up of clinical rotations done at surrounding hospitals. Since there was no official University Hospital, Loyola used many different hospitals during the various eras of its medical program. Some of the hospitals used from 1917 to 1936 included Willard, Columbus, Alex- ian, Oak Park, Mesercordia, and seem- ingly any hospital that had Saint as its first name. Cook County and Mercy were the main hospitals for clinical rotations. Cook County, located across the street, was a nationally famous hospital offering an excellent faculty and patient popula- tion. Loyola students started using Cook in 1930, and would continue to use it into the late 70's. Mercy Hospital, the oldest hospital in the Midwest, was founded in 1850. This hospital had been strongly affiliated with Loyola since 1919, and in 1937, Mercy became the University Hospital of Loyola fthe equivalent of the relationship between Stritch and Foster McGaw Hospital today.l From the late 20's to the late 40's and beyond, funding was the biggest obstacle Loyola faced. The buildings were too small, so in 1925 they were enlarged with a common facade uniting the three buildings that had been CCMS. This was a patchwork job because finan- cial problems prevented proper im- provements. By the end of the 1940,s the financial situation had gotten so bad that the suggestion was made for the school of medicine to be closed. This was when Cardinal Stritch came on the scene. He was approached on these matters for two reasons: the first was that he had long been committed to the idea of a Catholic medical center to serve the people of Chicagog the other was that he was known to be particularly adept at raising funds. The Cardinal became invaluable to the continuation of the Loyola School of Medicine. He offered monetary support, lent his name to an annual fundraising dinner, acted as mediator between Mercy Hospital and Loyola University. But most important- ly, Samuel Stritch was a major propo- nent of building a new medical school for Loyola since the old facilities were quickly becoming outdated. In 1948, the name of the medical school was changed to Loyola University Stritch School of Medicine because of the tremendous support which the school received from the Cardinal. During the l950's, the Sisters of Mercy announced their intention to build a new Mercy Hospital along South Lake Shore Drive. Because of Mercy's affiliation with the Stritch School of Medicine, it seemed suitable to explore the possibility that the new school of medicine might locate adjacent to the new Mercy Hospital, and this hospital would become the principal teaching hospital for the school. Thus began a lengthy series of negotiations in which Mercy and Loyola-Stritch tried to work out details acceptable to both sides in making this cooperation a reality. After several years of discussion, negotiations ceased with the major area of difference being control of the clinical departments within the hospital. In essence, the discussion seems to have been the classic struggle between community hospitals and their academic affiliates. In May of 1959, Mercy Hospital and Loyola University announced that the two institutions would expand separate- ly. Mercy would build a new hospital on their present site. Loyola would look for a new location to expand since the accrediting association had determined Stritch's facilities and equipment to be inadequate for the needs of medical education. By 1962 the 43 year collabora- tion between Mercy and Loyola had come to an end. Loyola purchased nine acres of property in Skokie in 1958 with the intent to build a 350 bed hospital and medical school on the site. There were several problems with this plan. First, the land needed to be annexed by Chicago to obtain city services. The bigger obstacle was the surrounding neighborhood, which felt the medical center would change the character of the community. In the end, Skokie sued, forcing Loyola to sell its property, but at a 1.7 million dollar profit. Meanwhile, Hines V.A. Hospital was planning to surplus some of its lands because it planned a high-rise replacement of its barrack-style hospital. A study commis- sioned by Loyola determined this to be an ideal location, stating that it would become the geographic population cen- ter for metropolitan Chicago. There was also sufficient land C62 acresl, and the large patient population of Hines V.A. nearby. Loyola purchased the land in 1961 for a price of one dollar. This f 1 lil, la -.4 .- A Ag v . Ubi..

Still, Loyola pursued the project. By 1961 Loyola had already begun what was to be a complete medical center, not just a hospital and medical school. The dental school needed new facilities and would also be located on the new property. There were other buildings planned for the medical center including a motel for families of patients, dormitories and apartments for stu- dents, and an education center. Due to financial and construction problems these buildings were never built. The hospital capacity was to be increased to 451 beds from the 350 planned at the Skokie site. Ground was broken for construction in 1965. The medical school was opened on the new campus in 1967 using building 116 fnear our anatomy labsl. The new medical school facilities attached to the north end of the hospital were functioning by 1968. The early 60's were a convenient time for Loyola to expand its medical programs and buildings. Sputnik was still fresh in the mind of the government, which felt that the U.S. was slipping in its scientific technology. The govern- ment's response to this was to offer grants for upgrading the nation's univer- sities. There was also felt to be a doctor shortage at this time, to the extent that foreign doctors were being imported to meet the U.S. demand. So legislation was passed appropriating money to expand the nation's medical training facilities. The goverment's support as well as the financial support of alumni and faculty helped pay for the new medical center. The new hospital was not without its growing pains. Construction delays forced the cost of the project to rise from 21 to 35 million before any ground was even broken. There was some doubt that the project should continue with these substantial increases. Hines was slow vacating its barracks at the center of the property where the hospital and school were to be built. And in order to avoid further construction costs brought on by delay, construction was begun on the north end of the campus where the first buildings were released by Hines. The dental school is presently located where the hospital was originally going to be built. After the hospital was open, some faults in the design and construction appeared. Examples of these flaws were leaks, an obscurely located front en- 1- ' . ,Ffa , KN: 2493 4 F - Anatomy Lab trance, shortage of elevators and an ER. that cut off entrance to the hospital from the west. Also, the original planners could never have imagined the rapid growth in the number of patients, and the subsequent need for larger facilities. Cardiovascular surgery was so successful that they occupied all the MICU beds as well as all the SICU beds on the second floor. Eventually the MICU had to be moved to makeshift facilities on the seventh floor. The hospital doors were opened in May of 1969, one year late. On its first day, Loyola had only two pa- tients, eight full time medicine faculty, and no house officers. The administra- tion consisted of an acting dean, acting chief of staff, acting vice-president, and a newly arrived hospital director. Dean Barbato, a medical student at the time, was one of the hospital's first patients. After three months, the average daily census was 40, and the hospital was losing 315,000 a day. The Stritch School of Medicine persisted through these lean years, and only became fully self-sup- ported in 1974. The new medical school would go through many changes between opening in 1967 and the present. The size of its class would enlarge by almost 5051 to 120. The percent of women enrolled in Stritch would rise from about 55 in the 50's to 30 'Y in the 70's and 4021 by the mid-80's. 1972 marked the first year of a new three year curriculum tLoyo1a did have a three year course of study during WW II, but changed back to a four year school at the end of the war.J This change from four to three years was prompted by the federal goverment, because there was felt to be a doctor shortage. The government motivated medical schools to go to a three year program by cutting the federal capitation grant, which subsi- dized the cost of educating students, from four years per student to three years. Thirty-two medical schools con- verted to three year programs. By 1980, Loyola had returned to a four year curriculum, as had all other schools with three-year programs. The three year program proved to be too strenuous, with courses crammed together, limited free time, and graduates who were poorly prepared for internship. 1979 was the last year students were admitted to Stritch for the three year program. With the return of a fourth year in 1980, came additional courses in ethics, statistics, and emergency medicine. The majority of clinical rotations from the mid-70's to present were done at Hines V.A. and Loyola. The relationship between the two hospitals became tighter as more Loyola faculty became part of Hines' staff, and many of the residency pro- grams merged Ci.e. surgery, pathology, psychiatryl. St. Francis, Resurrection, and Mercy also continued to offer rota- tions for Stritch students during these years. After construction of the hospital and medical school were completed, the medical center continued to grow. This growth was mainly a response to in- creased utilization of the facilities. Along with the rapidly expanding population in the western suburbs came the increased need for a west side medical center. Also, with easy access from two expressways, Loyola Medical Center was convenient to reach for patients throughout Chica- goland. After several years of providing quality care, Loyola had begun to devel- op a reputation for its high standards, ' 53 -ire and offered the latest in medical treat- ment. This increased the demand on Loyola from both the Chicago communi- ty and the nation. The Burke outpatient facility flocated at the north end of the hospital on the first floorl was so over- crowded by the influx of new patients that it could not function properly. Construction was begun in 1980 for a new outpatient center on the south end of campus. Also, a new surgical wing was underway by 1983 Csee page 215. Build- ing 54 was remodeled into offices in 1985 to accommodate the growing staff, and a much needed bookstore was built the same year. The Jesuit goal of providing quality education has been well met in Loyola University Stritch School of Medicine's 77 year history. The medical school has graduated over 6,500 physicians 14500 are living today.J The future of Loyola University Medical center appears bright. While most hospitals in the v-1 country are reducing capacity, Loyola is rapidly expanding. Already planned for this year is an MRI facility between the dental school and the outpatient center. With the success of the cardiac trans- plant program, a new wing will be added to the third floor to make room for a special transplant intensive care unit. Ldyola is also looking into the possibili- ties of a new heliport, cancer research building, a new MICU, and expanding the medical school to three floors. In addition to improvements in its physical plant, Loyola will be developing its academic programs. The bone marrow transplant program will be in action shortly. Research will be stressed in an effort to bring its level of quality up to that of the clinicians and academic physicians graduating from Stritch. As Loyola achieves greater national recog- nition, vacancies in department chair- manships are sought by more renowned physicians and scientists.

In a medical climate where many hospitals have begun to sweat under the heat of DRG's and other financial stresses - being forced in some cases to close entire wards or cut inpatient services, LUMC emerges as a glaring exception. The growing momentum Loyola's reputation has enjoyed in recent years has helped through plans for the long-awaited surgical wing to the south of Foster McGaw Hospital. While groundbreaking actually took place in October of 1983, bitter winters, unforseen construc- tion difficulties, and other factors have delayed completion of the expansion. While the addition is referred to in local vernacular as the surgical wing, many various departments and services will make the building their home. Such departments include Medical Records, Diagnostic Radiology, Pharmacy, Respiratory Therapy, and Cardiographics. The building will also house a new Cardiac Catheterization Lab, the Nuclear Medicine in vivo lab, Surgical PatholOgY, and other departments. While design of the facility has placed emphasis on prepared- ness for future growth and development of ancillary services, the primary thrust behind the present expansion has always been modernization of surgery and intenstive care. The building will include 16 operating rooms, a 50-bed neonatal care unit, and two Surgical Intensive Care units of 24 and 16 beds each. As the new wing was designed to modernize the care available to Loyola rather than to increase patient-care volume, these new units only slightly enlarge the bed-capacity of Loyola. The facility is comprised of 9 levels, two of which are below ground. Construction is scheduled to be complete in November 1986 but the moving departments are not expected to be situated t'l F b f1987. un I e mary 0 Where we learned 21 , i VETEF ANS ADMINISTRATION HOSPITAL Write an order, and you write it to yourself, because you are the only one who will look at the order sheet.

'1 I s S' Hun, Q-.,,,-.g I 'Il ,Uv 'ln lx, 1 I fl I 'IVILN GNV ' On July 30, 1982, it began. 130 people - previously unknown to each other for the most part - were drawn together and named the Loyola University Stritch School of Medicine Class of 1986. Having emerged from among 5,656 AMCAS applications, it was a diverse group. Ages spanned from 20 to 33. 18 members were married. 3 members were parents. 34 were female 126521, and 96 male. 51 were not residents of Illinois, hailing from 13 different states 125 from California alonel. They represented 63 different undergraduate institutions. 15 had graduated from Loyola, 10 from Notre Dame, 7 from U of I, and 5 from Northwestern. 109 had been Science majors, 54 of whom had majored in Biology. The next most common major was Chemistry 4127 followed by psycholo- gy 181. 2 had earned engineering degrees. 10 had gone on to earn M.S. degrees. Three of those students entering med school that day were doctors already of the Ph.D. variety. The two days of Orientation were filled with welcoming speeches, introductions, a panel discussion with upperclass- men, and distribution of pamphlets and folders, most of which - it is believed - have yet to be read. The orientation schedule was peppered with many social breaks for coffee 8a doughnuts, a picnic where the bookstore now stands, and a pizza and beer party in the Pub. As an encouraging reminder that actual human beings and patient care await us as the reason we were about to submerge ourselves in basic science, a lively lecture on Seizure Disorders was delivered on the second day with a patient as an invited guest. It wasn't long, however, before those 130 people had begun to become very familiar with each other as they quickly developed a tendency toward herd movement: That first lecture in Gross Anatomy early Monday morning, a mass migration to the cadaver lab lwith a stop-off at the cafeteria CURRICULI First Semester Gross Anatomy Histology Biochemistry Second Sem ester Neuroscience Physiology Biostatistics Medical Ethics Freshman Year president Marshall Steel addresses the class in mellow- speak. 24 The First Year for a doughnutl, a return stampede to the lower level lockers fto the chagrin of the switchboard operators and parking department who, from that day until Christmas would grow well-accustomed to the aroma of phenol and formalinl, and so to lunch, more lectures, and more labs. The class immediately became very responsive to the advice given by those ahead of us at Stritch: Live it up now - it only gets harder. Soon, those 130 people began to grow to know each other not simply as classmates in room 2706, or as lab partners, but as friends over for dinner, drinking buddies on Rush Street, white water rafting partners in Wisconsin, true confidants over coffee and and a snickers bar at 3:00 a.m. in the wet-labs, or simply as fellow adventurers to Golda's for lunch or to the Brookfield Zoo during Embryology lecture.

Whether it was a primary study spot or simply a place to keep emergency Pop Tarts, the MDL was central to the life of the first- year student. A less intense alternative to the library, one could work there without silent isolation. MDL's imultidisciplinary labsl, where each student was given a desk and several lockable drawers and cabinets, were the site of almost any activity from histology lab to post-test parties to late night rap sessions. The First Year 25 As exciting and full as the first year was, a simple truth remained: we studied a lot, A whole lot. And in so doing developed as many different styles of studying as there were members of the class. There were the rare few who maintained a steady, even pace: but it always seemed that the library was a deserted wasteland the first week or two following a round of tests, whose inhabitants gradually and grudgingly trickled back the nearer tests became. By the last week or two before a test block, it was about as easy to find an empty seat in the library as it had been to find a taken one when tests were over. There were the home-studiers, the MDLfWet-Lab residents, even those who preferred community libraries or Rosary and Elmhurst colleges. Many students seemed to rotate their sites of study: the open-table approach early in the unit where what one lacked in solitude, one gained in scoping: the study-carrel approach as the unit progressed where concentration was enhanced with help or a lended coop not far away: and the pre-test descent into the dungeon totherwise known as the stacksl when hopelessness had finally become evident. And it was during those final, tenser days when we began to hear the names of new students being paged overhead to the library telephone: Billy Rubin, Sue Demonis, and others unfit for publication. s X Above: Bob runs through the urea cycle once more.

Webber Birds of a feather flock together The first year ended as it had begun, on a sunny summer day. Suffering from combat fatigue at the end of finals, class members gathered at Miller Meadow immediately after the physiology exam to seek revenge on that department in softball. With the genuine thrill of victory, we smiled, knowing finally that we had made it: we would survive.

By the time sophomore year began, six of our original number had already left the class. By year's end, another nine would follow. While these departures occurred for a wide variety of g reasons, this was the period of greatest attrition. In the first semester, we faced Microbiology, Pharmacology, and ' Pathology. Because each of these disciplines required a hefty amount of sheer rote memorizing, buffered by considerably less hands-on lab time than the previous year had been, this may well have been our most grueling semester. With the novelty of being a medical student long worn away, our last youthful summer already behind us, clinical clerkships still in the very distant future, and the National Medical Board Exam, Part I looming ominously on the horizon, it was frequently as much a challenge to keep a positive attitude as it was to keep up on the work. But lecture by lecture, page by page, co-op by endless co-op, that which lay before us was gradually pushed behind, and the light at the end of the Basic Science tunnel grew brighter: We actually met those patients we kept hearing about. We didn't manage them. We didn't even follow them. But we asked 90-year-olds if they'd had all their childhood immunizations, and we percussed the diaphragmatic excur- sion. El ig-fl sr Pl' Q., This taste of clinical medicine was one of several things that made the second semester come as a breath of moderately fresher air. The Organ Systems course presented more integrated or conceptual material than we had yet enjoyed, much of which was review of first year material. The preparation for Casino Night functioned as indulgent diversion into entirely nonmedical pursuits. And somehow, the entire element of social life began to manifest a pervasive realization that this was the end of an era, this was the last time we might easily round up a group of friends--or go out spontaneously in the middle of the week able to end up partying into the wee hours without concern for clinical obligations awaiting at 6:00 A.M. As if to soak up the final weeks of youthful freedom, class members seemed to pour it on in the extracurricular department. Soon, however, our final finals were upon us, followed by numerous 1!2 M.D. parties. When the festivities had died down and the recovery period which followed each push for finals was fulfilled, it was time for one more rally: To again pick up that stack of review books, Stanley Kaplan notes, co- ops, or whatever method one had chosen, and to lean an earnest shoulder to the Board Exam grindstone. CContinued on page 403 ff? X 1 by Carl Coppola I had the unique experience of organizing and administering the cooperative note-taking system during the Basic Science years of medical school. It was frustrating at times, but fun to do, and it was a great experience in management overall. Our goal was to provide notes taken on each lecture that were accurate and prompt. Being able to put trust in these goals allowed coop members to actually pay attention to the lecturer and accompanying visual aids, think about what was being said, or even ask questions. This seemed more beneficial than to become so busy feverishly transcribing the lecture that one couldn't even think. It also ensured a member complete notes on all lectures, even if that lecture happened to have been missed for one reason or another. After all, periodic conflicting obliga- tions such as sleep, golf, travel, or even library study inevitably arose. For the most part, we achieved these goals, improving the service greatly in the second year. Each member of the coop contributed directly, either as a note-taker, printer, collat.er, or distributor. Schedules were established for each task on a rotating basis. As freshmen, we did our own printing on an antiquated mimeograph machine which proved to be sloppy and tedious. Once in a while, the complaint arose that a note-taker had done a poor job. If most members felt similarly, the coop was rewritten by its original author. Fortunately, this was rare. as-Lf-:-s.-gm,-,, ' 11.3 , The system proved to be much more successful in the sophomore year. We contracted all printing to the print shop which made life much easier. We adopted a standard letterhead by Mark Gillis which added a nice touch, note-takers were more experienced, and copies were clearer. It sometimes seemed that the best part of coop membership was reading the jokes, comments, cartoons, or personal philosophy that most authors interjected. Based on an enrollment of about 110 members per year, the number of lectures, and average number of pages, it is estimated that in two years we generated 330.000 sheets of paper! This is equal to 214,277 square feet, or the area of nearly four football fields. If you were to line up your coops end to end, they would extend 30,250 feet--or 5.7 miles. That's a lot of coops!

The Second Year 35 by Tony Gregg Hunger Week was born on Loyola's Lake Shore Campus in 1973. The director of campus ministry on the Lake Shore, Maureen Fechtmann, nurtured it to include all Loyola campuses, but we in Maywood had yet to respond. We had two Goals: 11 to raise consciousness about world hunger, and 25 to raise money that would be hand carried to areas of the world less fortunate than ours. Jim Whitehead and Mike Lambesis of the Dean of Students' Office supplied encouragement, and offered to defray preliminary expenses. We acquired videotapes with facts about world hunger and the world's food chain which dramatized the magnitude of the problem. At that point the limiting factor became manpower. That's when the Class of '86 came in. We made collosal posters and commenced to send our message to the medical center. Remember the posters that strategically curbed appetites near the pub? Class members at key locations disseminated Hoops For Hunger pledge forms. Most of us asked, Greg demanded, and Tina and Lise Anne politely distracted people for donations. Q- We sold buttons and collected canned goods for the food drive.

Our class, the freshmen, the graduate school, and Loyola employees had three minutes to shoot as many baskets as possible. Some people couldn't miss, while others . couldn't seem to connect fwe know who we arel. The number of baskets made ranged from 5 to 61. When the fun ended, we had raised over 83,000 in pledges and later collected 10095: of that amount. This was in addition to other donations at ' the videotape tables. The money and food was distributed in conjunction with funds from the other campuses to - fr missions overseas and to local soup kitchens. The unique 1 X' facet of this distribution is that the money was hand delivered 1 s. .y-A r- by Loyola's own people who work among the hungry--not by A X bureaucrats. 1 N.

On June 13, 1984, the only one of those events that loomed as a haunting black cloud had finally been blown away. With a sigh of proud relief and a certain amount of excitement with what was next to come, we smiled into that new summer sun and savored a simple thought: We were half way there. Before the long-awaited Final Final of our Basic Science years, Pete announces details of the 1f2 M.D. picnic. Following the last exam of Sophomore Year, we assembled for the taking of this photo--and what would be the last time we'd be together in this number until Match Day or even Graduation.

Greater bioavailability at lower cost! Thatls fascinating! Can I have another slice of pizza? We were all pretty excited to get onto the wards-a good thing, since summer only lasted three weeeks. But for the first time, we were not all returning to the same setting or circumstances. For some, the clinical years began gently, with Psychiatry or even an elective. Others began with a trial-by-fire on, say, Dr. Pickleman's Surgery service or Loyola Cardiology. There were even a few whose first day on the floors grew to include their first night, as they found theirs to be the first name on the call schedule. However our rotations tracked out, we had plenty to adjust to-and fast. It was challenging enough just to figure out what was happening with all the patients, much less to keep read-up on the underlying academics. But to make matters worse, we had more important things to learn: How to do an H Sz P in less than four hoursg the seven different places nurses hide their clipboardsg how to find an x-ray, how to get a radiologist to pay attention to you once you find the film, how to sign your interns nameg where not to sit in the nursing station, and so on. With everything so new all at once, it was difficult not to give in to sensory overload. In an environment of nurse hostility at every turn, attending rounds before you were ready, a new patient in the ER, and an appointment with your case checker at a time when you still didn't even know where the bathrooms were, it wasn't difficult to be humble. Didn't you calculate your patients serum osmolality'? Ah, no, but I do have the RDW from the CBC .... Things improved. We got our bearings, learned those stick figures for lab values, and developed our own systems for following patients and staying sane. Scut became a second language. IVs, ABGS, foleys, and blood draws all rapidly progressed from frightening ordeals to trivial pains-in-the-neck. The intimidation of being responsible for your patients abated somewhat when we found that ours was usually merely one of three or four separate write-ups and that our exams were usually double or triple-checked. With the rest of the service running at full-tilt, patients seemed to appreciate that we were frequently the only ones who had time to sit down and explain the significance of test results, the plan of attack, etc. Once in a while, patients even asked for our card for follow- up in clinic! 42 The Third Year fx, s fp 3 ff.

The ward rotations brought us a step or two closer to sober reality. It was one thing to read about melena, but it was quite another to smell it in person. We experienced sides of the world we might not yet have known: the victim of brutal child abuse, the end- stage alcoholic, the 14-year old with PID following her second abortion, AIDS. But a few rotations into Junior Year when things had settled down, while sitting post-call clutching a styrofoam coffee cup, eating lunch with an on-call meal ticket, a simple truth about the clinical years became evident: This was a lot harder...but it was a lot better.

As one of the last students to endure the rotation, I had already become familiar with progress notes venipuncture, IV's, etc., and had a full year's worth of H8zP's under my belt. The frustration level seemed quite a bit higher in this rotation than the others: Aching feet on marathon rounds the omnipresent new admission in ready to be worked up, log books, case-checking, paging someone three times to cosign a CBC order you forgot to write yesterday but need now, the hours wasted waiting for the attending or for a patient to return from nuclear medicine should have been spent working on that reading list. And what a list! Did they really expect us to get through that with our schedule? Maybe we should have replaced Biostatistics or Communi- ty Medicine with Evelyn Wood! Organization was my only defense. I finally learned to make up a daily scut list which seemed to grow longer the more I crossed off. Why was the only lab sheet I needed the one that was missing? And why, once I found it, was it so difficult to find someone to think through the results with me? It was a switch. Those names I'd heard of in P-dog and heard from in Organ Systems now learned my name. There was no hiding out at the back of the pack. Everyone knows who the junior student is, and that's who gets put on the grill first. Unlike the classroom, no friendly voice two rows back whispers the answer when you draw a blank. And then there was call. Scut-puppy capital At least it was only IV's f How many times did you try? J, blood draws, etc. The R-1 got called for the tough stuff so I usually got some sleep. And I got very good at being able to find food in the wee hours--a skill likely to remain valuable for years to come. Medicine. It's what I want to do with the rest of my life. But there's got to be a better way to teach it. Let's see, I'll need a lavender top, 2 red tops, blue top, green top, glove, surgilube, hemoccult card and, from the looks of his arms, 3 or 4 jelcos. . .' The Third Year 43 by Bob Sulkowski 4:30 AM I can't believe it's time to get up. The last thing I remember, it was Sunday after- noon. A quick shower, two cups of coffee and off to the hospital. Where are the stupid computer sheets with the lab values? Who took my patients' vital sheets? There aren't any nurses around. Oh well, I'll just wing it on rounds. Better load up my coat with 4x4s, tape, cotton swabs, gloves, a couple of irrigation syringes and might as well toss an NG tube in my back pocket. Rounds actually weren't too bad. The residents knew less about my patients than I did. Everybody was pretty stable except for the two unit players. Luckily, neither of them are mine. 6:59 and 48 seconds The doors at the end of the hall open and here comes Dr. Pickleman. Twelve seconds to walk down the hall and 7:00 teaching rounds have begun. God, I hope he doesn't ask me any questions!

But I'm really here for another nap and, of course, a doughnut. These are leftovers from the Korean War. Only Black Holes have a greater density per cubic centimeter.

Therefore, go for the groin. Blood cultures X 2 sent. Next Day Now to pre-round before the residents show up for service rounds so we can get our act together before attending rounds. Three cases today, after- noon lecture, two admissions, scut on the floor, labs and X-rays to check, rounds one more time. Out of the hospital by 11:00 PM. Microwave hot dogs for dinner, my first semi-real food in two days. I'm too tired to read and too wired tousleep. Finally, it's about 1:30 AM. I've been awake for 45 hours with only a couple naps, and I've got to start work in three hours. As I begin to drift off to sleep, I come to an ironic realization: I want to be a sur- geon. Psychiatr by Jon Seidlin Ah, 9 AM rounds with Dr. DeVito. What a trip! I used to think I should get in early to write notes on all 2 patients I had - and that's where my bad habits began. What the hell, I've got all day to write these notes... why come in early? We had a multiple personality on the service - a little sodium amytal and Sybil had come to life before our very eyes. One of my patients had a paranoia disorder... he believed that he was a homosexual mass murderer, cornered in his apartment by a police S.W.A.T. team, ready to face his own violent death - that's about the time his poor brother had to drag him into the hospital. Homosexuality is evolutionary sui- cide , he said. Profound beyond measure. Yes, and then there was Pt. X. The patient who was singlehandedly responsible for my bad evaluation. He was able to break down my defense mechanisms, those mechanisms that kept me from laughing, that is. I'd like to see your '22 Z. .1-.1-no . .-- face if one of your patients took off all his clothes, flushed them down the toilet, clogging it and E flooding his entire apartment, was found stark naked in a corner by the cops who had to break down the door, and, when asked why he did all this, he said: The gods were so strong and powerful, that I had to be in the nude just to stay alive! Well, how 'bout it? And if that one didn't break you, how about this .... Another patient of mine had been unemployed for ten years. When I asked him if he would like to try some simple work to feel useful again, he replied: Whaddaya mean I don't work?l I work very hard keeping the Chinese people alive with my love!! Interviewing a psychiatric patient on rounds in front of everyone could be quite traumatic. A fellow student, who shall remain nameless, had . 2 new E. to interview a very hostile schizophrenic woman. After a few friendly questions the patient suddenly said: Shut up, just shut the hell up! I feel hostility in your voicev, the student calmly replied. These exchanges continued for what seemed to be an eternity. When the attending felt the interview was well done, he relieved the student by asking the patient to leave the room and to stop behaving like a child. And then there is the matter of the clerkship evaluation. Mine sounded like a psychoanalytic diagnosis: A curious, intellectual student, empathetic with his patients and yet a rebellious, anti-establishment oriented individual who pos- sesses leadership qualities that may be directed toward conformity or revolt. Fortunately that statement was not forwarded for my Dean's Letter, otherwise I might be looking for a job in the business world, or perhaps garbage collecting. ...dw-. The Third Year 45 Pediatrics by Mike Mihalov My most vivid recollections of the Pediatrics clerkship revolve around my incredible lack of punctuality. Jackie and I started peds in January just after the Christmas break and we were scheduled to be at a meeting with Dr. Gatson at 8 A.M. At 8:10 A.M., we were ambling down the fourth floor corridor toward the peds library when we spotted Dr. Gatson heading toward us. Since we had never met him before, I was sure that we could slip past him with my chances for a positive evaluation still intact. As we had all but attained safe haven in the library, he looked us each in the eye and deadpanned You're late. Two weeks later, Eric Bieber and I were up to bat for Dr. Gatson's relaxing newborn nursery week, commencing the six days promptly at 7 A.M. Still working on getting a glowing evaluation, I awoke on a snowy Monday morning in Naperville at 7:15 A.M. An hour later, I moved quickly into the newborn nursery and found Dr. Gatson reviewing a chart with Eric iwhose smile did not escape my noticej. I stopped just beyond Dr. Gatson's reach, returned his warm expression, and acknowledged, I'm late. Without an instant's hesitation, he replied, I knowf, Besides pleasant encounters with Dr. Gatson, Pediatrics was, for me, an introduc- tion to the little people--those miniature patients who hardly wrinkle their bedsheets and make even the most crusted attendings smile. And where else but the NICU could you treat your patient by turning a few dials or make rounds on all of your patients without walking more than a dozen steps. All of these were reasons to go into pediatrics, but one, for me, remains the most important: pediatricians don't have to wear ties. 46 The Third Year 'W g 5 a-Eiiife 3 2 if ff vnu.- WWW!

Then there was the first delivery. You stand dressed in sterile garb with hands clasped anxiously awaiting this Miracle of Birth staring at the poor woman's perineum over the attending's shoulder.

But be- tween those two endpoints, we were more than fourth-year med students: we were seniors. We seemed to see less of each other during Senior Year than we did at any other time. At least it seemed that way first semester. With only Neurology and the Medicine Subinternship as required rotations, there was a lot of variability to what we busied ourselves with. But it seemed that almost everyone spent a healthy amount of time away from Loyola those first six months. All one had to do was try to get a group together for a movie or a party to realize just how not around people were. At first it was externships-taking a first-hand look from the inside at prospective residency sites Knot to mention getting looked at a lot more personally than in a single interviewl. Or maybe it was just a way to spend a month at home one last time before residency-letting Mom and Dad see you in your nice white coat. Then it was interviews. With only 43 'Yi of the class matching in Illinois, this made for a lot of traveling fThe average number of interviews was 9.1 costing a mean 3892 ranging from 325 to 330001. But soon after Christmas people seemed to trickle back to savor the final stretch together.

There was the wine-tasting party, and in general a healthy new interest in calling friends up for get-togethers. Match Day came and went only adding fuel to the wildfire epidemic of the What do I care how l do on this rotation? attitude which was sweeping through the class by mid-March. As one by one the obstacles between us and graduation fBoards Part II, Medical Ethics paper, etc.J were knocked down, life became sweeter. Most class members seemed able to finish up academic requirements with several full weeks of freedom before graduation. And those last few rotations found a lot of people sweating out the grueling demands of Ophtho, Derm, Rays, Nuclear Med, etc. It was in those final weeks when class members were packing up to move on that we were able to look back over this Loyola University Stritch School of Medicine, and view the whole picture. It was an interesting place, this Loyola. Where tuition increased from 39,550 to 311,988 Ca 2033 increase compared to 12 i for the Consumer Price Indexl. Where the average class member went 340,000 into debt, the deepest being 390,000 fonly f fi' 5 ,fl 1 l 23 people did not meet Donna Sobiel. Where the parking situation progressed, from horrible to inexcusableg but also where the number of cardiac caths and CABG's increased each year 11750 caths our senior year, including 85 pediatric cases, and 1164 CABG's-over 1'5 of the national totalllg where over 50 heart transplants were performed during our stay, the first in March of Sophomore year. It was the kind of place where one didn't have to look very far to find plenty to complain about-a lot like anywhere else in the world on that count. But it was also a place where, after all the little hassles and not-so-little expenses, a genuinely excellent education was available to those who wanted one. And it was a place-by all available indications-of which we will only grow prouder as it continues to earn ever greater local and national respect. 1 However varied or debateable our impressions of Loyola had been by thel end of Senior Year, there was one point about the Stritch School of Medicinel that seemed more important than all the rest: It was where we became doctors. Since you did not adhere precisely to the rules clearly stated in the elective catalogue, I'm afraid I can't consider the problem further. Y ai?

St. Lucia is even farther from Loyola than St. Francis at 14 degrees N. Lat., 61 degrees Long. in the West Indies, just south of Martinique. This tropical island is a mere 27 miles X 14 miles with a population of 120,000 St. Jude Hospital in the south- ern part of the island is home for Loyola students. St. Jude's is a 110-bed private hospital run by the Sisters of the Sorrowful Mother. Built during WWII, it is a two- story lime-green stucco building which sits on a hilltop overlooking the ocean. It is primitive by U.S. standards, but adequate in its t.hird world setting. It is staffed by local residents and a continuously changing staff of western volunteers lU.S., Euro- pean, and Canadianl as physicians, nurses, dentists, midwives, and lab specialists. Several volunteers have more established roles such as Dr.fSister Cataldi, a general surgeon and Sister of the Sorrowful Moth- er. When I stepped off the plane, I knew I was in paradise. The tropical air was humid and 80 degrees F. at 11:00 PM with swaying palm trees surrounding the airfield and mountains in the distant background. As the customs agent stamped my passport and 5-week visa, the thick British accents and Patois lthe local French dialectl all around me were the first indications that this culture would be unlike anything I had ever experienced before. My next surprise, on the drive to the hospital,lafter adjusting to the fact that the steering wheel was on the wrong side of the carl was the sight of a Heineken Brewery less than 1000 meters from the hospital. 1 , , 1 a -A 1 v ,L In .

Students are usually on the Medicine, Peds, or Surgery service with an attending. After morning rounds at 6:30 or 7:00 and breakfast in the cafeteria, all students work in the outpatient clinic. Call is every fourth night, and the ER is covered by the student with an attending on back-up. We naturally encountered our share of routine URI's, gastroenteritis, meningitis, and septic work-ups in Pediatricsg and DM, CHF, and Hypertension in Medicine, but the parasitic infections, typhoid fever, schistosomiasis, paraquat poisoning, and other unusual surprises kept us on our toes. Specialized surgical cases were referred to the visiting surgeons. We, however, became proficient in ER suturing due to the many machete injuries which occur there. Diagnostic lab work was extremely limited, as was the pharmacy formulary. One frequently had to check whether or not a given drug or lab test was available before ordering it. When not on call, the afternoons were spent exploring. Lone Tree beach was 2 miles from the hospital. It is a mile-long white sand beach lined with palm trees. A transport could take you to the beach for one East Caribbean dollar C40 cents U.S.l or you could walk down the meandering 2-lane road past grazing goats, cows, and pigs, Lone Tree beach was excellent for jogging, strolls, body surfing, wind surfing or a mile swim out to two small offshore islands. These X . ...ct tw. . ........ 3' .. islands had excellent snorkeling reefs and exotic lizards and birds. The reefs teemed with squid, needle-nose fish, and an occasional small reef shark. The sky would change complexion rapidly from a torrential downpour to broken clouds in minutes. The sea would change from purple to lavender to turquoise to aquamarine. The more ambitious hiked the Pitons C2000 ft. peaks with very steep trails and beautiful faunal, traveled to Anse la Raye la scuba diving resort with a pleasant outdoor barfrestaurant and orgasmic blueber- ry cheesecakel, and explored other towns or beaches. Honeymoon Beach was a particularly excellent surf spot. I had brought a board and was able to enjoy perfect waves by myself. I even showed local Rastafarians how to paddle out and they took to it very naturally. Many an afternoon were spent talking with local fishermen, workers and children about the island and the culture. At night the local hangout is Kupfey's, a tavern in someones home. 100 meters from the hospital, one could sip on an ice-cold Heineken or rum and coke and listen or dance to local Raggae tunes. The rotation passed much too rapidly and before we knew it, it was time to head back to Maywood. St. Lucia was an incredibly rewarding experience medically, physically, culturally, and socially.

This brief review is not designed to chronicle all that has happened during our four years of medical schoolg instead, I hope that reading this review will provoke memories of our time spent at Loyola. It all started on July 30, 1982, with Freshman Orientation. Everybody was so nervous, and it was so repetitive: name, home town, college, where you're livingg name, hometown, college... and yes, how can we forget that PIMD! But medical school was not as easy as the picnics and parties of Freshman Orientation led us to believe. The following Monday morning, the four year ordeal began, and it did so with Gross Anatomy. For most of us, this was our first meeting with death- and with the smell of formalin. Soon, the tension was replaced with humor and the customary naming of the cadavers, and by the end of the semester, we had all formed some very close friendships with those we shared the dissecting table with. Anatomy was not our only class-we had Histology and Biochemistry, and soon, Physiology, Neurology, Medical Ethics, and Biostatistics followed. The year was concluded with a picnic and softball game against the Physiology department twhich we won, of coursell. After summer vacation Cwere we adequately warned that it would be our last'?D, we came back to Third Semester: Microbiolo- gy, Pathology, and Pharmacology. Somehow, we were able to learn a lot in a short period of time, and after a hot rum and apple cider party in the MDL's and Christmas vacation, we began Organ Systems, Physical Diagnosis, and Community Medicine. Despite its social atmosphere, the lottery for clerkship tracks went smoothly fexcept for Frank Giordano, who was drawn lastlj. And the semester was additionally enlivened by class debate concerning mandatory attendance at lectures. The year was capped by a class picture at the fountain, a picnic, Boards, and a post-Boards Pub party. Finally, the clinical years had arrived! How we all remember our first IV and ABG attempts and successes, our first delivery, our first surgery, our first night on call iespecially as subinternsj, and our first patient death. And in addition to all of the medical knowledge gained, we also learned how to get by with little or no sleep, as well as how to eat on the run tif at allJ. During Senior year, as the post-Career Night residency panic hit us, many of us took to the road for months at a time to do extramural electives, interview, or just relax away from Chicago. When we returned, with our residency applications completed, the grass suddenly looked much greener, and instead of Surgery and Intensive Care electives, we discovered the gut electives: Cardiographics, Surgical Pathology, Gross Anatomy, etc. With the help of these, the semester flew by, including Boards Part II, the Match Party at Fitzgerald's, and finally, our graduation at the Conrad Hilton Grand Ballroom. In addition to the many picnics and parties already mentioned, our class participated in many other social activities. We went on a ski trip to Wisconsin, played a major role in four Boxer Shorts Parties, sponsored many parties in classmates houses, performed skits at each St. Lukels Night, and organized the 1983 All-School Picnic. Biggest of all was our co-sponsoring of Casino Nights II and III, with some of the proceeds going to 319 C ? In 9 'Q , U charity. Another community service was Hunger Week, highlighted by Hoops for Hunger in the gym. The class officers were especially busy during these four years. In addition to planning the many social events. Career Night, and Graduation, there were dozens of behind-the- scenes administrative duties, including collecting dues, trying to change exam schedules. mid-semester course evaluations, and postponing paper deadlines, just to name a few. During this time, we had to keep in mind that the Class of 1986 was made up of 125 people with different personalities and varied interestsg we always strived to do what was best for the class as a whole. And with only rare exceptions, I think we always achieved that goal. All in all, through all the lectures, jelcos, exams, and post-exam parties, it was a great four years. l'd like to thank all of you for letting me serve as your class president the last three years. And a VERY BIG THANK YOU to Joe, Matt, Steve, and Randy for all of their many hours spent on this yearbook-they truly did a superb job. Good Luck and good health in the future.

Although each Casino Night was tremendous fun, those behind the scenes will readily tell you that most of the fun occured during the five months of preparation. The first organizational meeting took place in December, at which time the Executive Committee delegated work into nine smaller committees, each with both a freshman and sophomore co-chairman: Bar, Decorations, Employees, Equipment, Food, Prizes, Publicity, Security, and Ticket Sales. Two of these committees faced particularly challenging tasks. The Prize Committee spent months canvassing local shopping areas, asking store owners to contribute prizes in return for advertising at the event. Each of the two years, the committee was successful at having about 200 stores donate nearly 1000 prizes. An equally venerable job belonged to the Decoration Committee. The highlight of their work consisted of inflating over 7000 balloons in the wet labs, transporting them through the hospital, and raising a balloon ceiling in the auditorium. I mf.. A-In-lg Finally, after months of planning and hard work, Casino Night arrived, but the work continued. Over 120 Workers - enlisted, scheduled, and trained by the Employee Committeee - were needed to work as game dealers, served food, or sell tickets and prizes. Over 500 gamblers came to play Black Jack, Roulette, Beat the Dealer, Guts, Over-Under, the Big Six wheel, Slot Machines, and Horse Races, all of which were located in the auditorium and Corridor C. The Pub, transformed into the Easy Money Cafe Sr Bar for the evening, served hot dogs, heroes, nachos, in addition to mixed drinks, beer, and wine. Entertainment in the main room was provided by the Elmhurst College Jazz Band, and by class members performing in the Easy Money Cafe Sz Bar. Patrons could buy play money from the cashiers at the entrance, and use that money to gamble. Those with money left over at the end of the evening could either buy the smaller, donated prizes at the Big Bucks Bou- tique, or bid in an auction for the ten top prizes. These included trips, telev- isions, microwave ovens, bicycles, barbe- cue grills, golf clubs, and more. li Q1 'x..! F 4 U .1 N. . -- ..- -:ii li. . , , .

The excitement of entering a party and immediately dropping your pants was intoxi- cating, sobered only by the thought of looking for those pants somewhere in the monumental pile by the front door when it came time to leave. A dress code was always strictly adhered to: al semiformal from the waist up, and bl boxer shorts. 2104 South Fourth Avenue was the place to be for a guaranteed good time, year after year.

The MSU is composed of four officers, all class officers, and student members of the various university and medical school committees. Monthly meetings of the student union allow representatives from each class and committee to report on current activities and discuss pertinent issues of importance to students. The Medical Student Union provides a forum for students to exchange ideas with their peers and communicate with the faculty and medical school administration. The MSU operates on a budget made up from student dues and has been involved in funding a variety of academic and social activities at the medical center. During our four years at Loyola, the Medical Student Union helped fund the freshman and sophomore co-op note system, the All-School Picnic, the annual St. Lukes Day dinner, Casino Night, and the Seniors' Match Day Party. In addition, the Student Union has sponsored several educational programs presented by AMWA, Physicians for Social Responsibility, Phi Chi Fraternity, and the Peer Counseling Program. The MSU has also contributed to numerous social events, such as the traditional Boxer Shorts Party. Medical Student Union R f future networking. students at Loyola. AMWA In the Spring of 1982 some women in the Class of 1986 got together and committed their time to forming a chapter of the American Medical Women's Association at Loyola. Their goal was to form a group that promoted: dissemination of information, an open forum, and a basis for Attendance at all functions was open to interested persons, male or female. Activities of the first year included: A wine and cheese party with , female attendings and housestaff, a nutrition symposium, Lunch with the ni- Docs program, pot-luck dinner with female attendings, a Marriage, sw- Family, and Medicine symposium, and Doctor-Nurse interaction sympo- sium. Throughout the four years at Loyola, subsequent classes have continued to support the organization. The women in the class of 1986 who were there in the beginning are proud to see their work continue to grow and have a positive impact on Sherry Wren, President Mary Pat Tierney, Vice-president Beth Pfeffer, Treasurer Jocelyn Vallarta, Secretary Amnesty International Amnesty International is a worldwide movement of people working to eradicate the imprisonment and torture of individuals because of their political beliefs, sex, ethnic origin, language, or religion, provided they have neither used nor advocated violence.

CLUBS 68 rights. The organization has focused on these abuses in countries such as Paraguay and Turkey. Many letters were sent by Loyola students and faculty to the governments in these countries condemning these activities. The group has also sponsored speakers to talk about human rights infractions in Chile, the Soviet Union, and parts of Central America. In association with the Medical Humanities and Neurology departments, an Ethical Grand Rounds was held in 1985 on the subject of torture. It is the hope of the organization to continue to enlighten the medical center about the oppression of people around the world and to work on their behalf. - Eric Janigian AMSA , Seventy percent of the Class of 1986 were members of the American Medical Student Associ- ation, continuing our position among the elite U50 + chapters of the organization. AMSA Cunre- lated to the AMAJ is a vehicle by which medical students are kept informed of current issues that relate to the present and future practice of medicine. More importantly, however, it encour- ages students to actually affect those issues by providing avenues and opportunities for them to become involved in shaping the course these issues take. This is done in hopes of better preparing students for the role physicians ought to play as community leaders. Our class took on this challenge both in carrying on several projects traditionally accom- plished each year by AMSA, as well as initiating a number of original undertakings. One such traditional project which our class supported was the annual Instrument Co-op in which AMSA was able to make physical diagnosis materials istethoscopes, ophthalmoscopes, lab coats, etc.l more affordable through organizing group-buying. This was particularly successful for our class, complicated only by minor discontent of some local suppliers. AMSA members also set up a mock anatomy practical exam for the freshman class behind us so that this format of testing was not so strange and new during their first real practical. AMSA also featured a complement of films and presentations addressing practical and political issues. Under the ambitious leadership of our genera- tion of officers, Kaveh Safavi, Matt Nora, Tony Gregg, and Linda Shalon, AMSA instituted a few new traditions including the biannual used-book sale, and physician specialty speakers. AMSA also participated in the March of Dimes Community Outreach project. Our chapter delivered large delegations to the National Convention, thanks to strong support of the Medical Center. Many of our classmates traveled to Cleveland in 1983 and Washington D.C. in 1984. We participated in hosting the program at the Palmer House in 1985. Perhaps our class' greatest effort was to organize the trip to Washing- ton. Everyone who wanted to attend was able to - 21 people in all. They had an opportunity to participate on the floor of the House of Delegates as policy makers. Those that attended heard Senator Edward Kennedy deliver the keynote address. Our chapter joined ranks with other students to learn about issues from hunger to scholarship to nuclear war and then lobbied opinions on Capitol Hill. The delegation strolled Georgetown, the Smithsonian, and rode the sub- way. Without question, each member of our class was involved in an AMSA activity in some way, even if only to get a Mastercard. AMSA contribut- ed to the education and enjoyment of Loyola Medical students. Our class had much to do with that success. - Kaveh Safavi INTRAMURALS by Bob Sulkowski In choosing a medical school, different students look for different things. Facilities, faculty, classes, clerkships, academic record of the studentsg most schools are pretty good. But one thing compels the future doctor to attend Stritch more than anything else: The Intramural Sports. The t.hrills, the excitement, the chance for stardom. . .the humiliation of the yankers. When I look back on four years ofintramurals, I realize that I made the right choice in Stritch. Football offered the chance for students to line up across from each other and battle for plots of muddy turf. I don't know why it always seemed to rain just before the games. But the mud of Miller's Meadow kept the injuries to a minimum. Basketball was always the clash of the titans. Medical students and yankers going head to head. We played better, they looked better. But. then again, we didn't have time to blow-dry our hair before the games. No other games are taken more seriously, however. I believe I still hold the unofficial record for the most technical fouls in one season. What I lacked in size I made up for in mouth. We didn't always win, but we played pretty well and we always had fun. Volleyball is the one sport where the women are the most integral part of the team. It. is physically impossible for a human male to hit a volleyball below his waist with his hands clasped together. More points are lost by palming the ball that are gained by good plays. I personally believe that volleyball was created by God to allow women to prove their superiority to men. Now I know how they feel when they try to pass a football. The co-ed softball league allowed us to display our talents, or lack thereof, against those of other hospitals. We didn't win too many games, but we led the league in broken fingers, mine included. Diving catches, screaming line drives, late inning rallies, beer in the dugout, losing the big game .. . the Cubs would have been proud. Once again, the women were the cornerstone of the team. Granted. some teams had some women that could hit better, and even catch better, but when you lose as often as we did, it's very important to have something nice to look at. In the category of pretty women, we led the league again. Overall, the sports at Stritch were everything they were supposed to be. Superstars were created and destroyed with the swing of a bat or the drop of a pass. It wasn't winning or losing. thank God, but just playing that was important. Another one ofthe rare chances to escape the books and the work and unwind with some good people for some good times. 1 R3 .-gs ..., ' . 'mg H I-s 7. 1 V ' ' ' . V. K Q. V . - - ., X 'Q -Q .

Q V K-iii, un It took a long time to get through medical school. 1258 days, to be exact. Many of those days took on particular significance, while others were best forgotten for at least deeply repressedl as soon as they were over. Several even became genuine milestones on the road to physicianhood. But no single day dominated our thoughts, riveted our attention, pierced our minds forming an axis around which our academic lives revolved, as did March 19, 1986: Match Day. Let's face it. When digging in for the last push the weekend before finals, it wasn't in hopes that someday you would graduate. You'd have to really screw up not to graduate. Knuckling down for boards wasn't in hopes of merely passing them any more than working for a good floor evaluation was to pass the rotation. T ' Whooping it up at a pre-match champagne bash J 1' ,J ' In ' . .c... 'x The reason we did these things was because we were looking ahead to landing that residency spot. On Match Day, we did. After spending the better part of our senior year arranging clerkships at prospective residency sites, interviewing, letter- writing, then enduring that 3-month hurry up and wait period, come Match Day, we were ready to get it over with. As if it would bring the answer sooner, most class members seemed to begin the traditional Match Day partying even before Dr. Pickleman was making rounds. Whether it was with the private intimacy of one's spouse or at a full scale all-out champagne bash, friends shared the pre-Match sympathetic discharge together. By 10:00 a.m. the mass migration to Fitzgerald's Pub-chartered for the occasion-had begun. Neither the flowing of free drinks nor the seemingly endless housekeepingfgraduation announcements could distract class members' attention from the Jays Potato Chips box at the front of the room, and at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, the random drawing of envelopes began. When it was finished, 112 suspicions had either been confirmed or denied, dreams had either come true, been shattered, or had simply been adjusted somewhat to reality. But for the first time since the entire process had begun nearly 4 years before, each of us knew something of what the future held in store. In a matter of a few seconds, some secret computer hidden in Evanston, IL had arranged the next 3, 5, maybe 45 years of our lives. But grateful or disappointed with its results, we were all relieved: The Match was over. It was time to move on. .Q Need a Doctor? 7- ,sg Internal Medicine-3yr 27 X ., I Family Practice 17 0 - , ' , Pediatrics 16 ObfGyne Surgery-preliminary l Internal Medicine-lyr I H icine!Pediatrics 2 Transitional Y Urology g ff Psychiatry Emergency Medicine X Pathology , fr ' ENT N ' ' A Orthopedics - fl-Q, Q Anesthesia 5 Fiehab Medicine 5 .Q Radiation Therapy Radiology ya . ,H L- 5 . .'

Fully matured and heavily in debt wide set? 94 lt is interesting to think about the forces which brought all of us to medical school and the hopes and dreams which sustained us through the trials and tribulations. Most of us have come to realize that no one could do this for anything less than the genuine satisfaction that comes from helping others, especially those in need. We've all come to know the impact one who cares can have on the patient who is ill, lonely. and feeling cheated. How do we respond to this? lf we are honest we admit that we never respond to the extent that we are capable of. How often have l turned away from the emotions and strife. and hope that are the fibre ot' human experience? But the one thing that keeps us going is that we try. We know that we each have a place in the greater scheme, and no matter how small this place may seem we are commissioned to take it to its fullest extent. We just want to thank all the fellow students that have helped us carry this load, and all the teachers that have shown us that though the challenge be great., the rewards are greater still. Medical school was not an unlivable period, but rather a time where we came to know ourselves, our strengths. and our limita- tions. Reality has imposed itself, and we who feel lucky have recognized its parameters, and are exhilarated to be a part of the drama. r--..x. .I , A ni cf -,Mmu XS' my-. , 13- fl? 1' ASAP: 221 f.f7f 3192 John and Teresa Petros Belita Anatalio TO ALL FRIEND 5...

Without my mom? Impossible, literally. A thousand thank- yous for your inspiring words, your undying love, and your unceasing prayers. Without my faith in Christ? Less purposeful and certainly more depressing. Dear God, You promised never to leave us or foresake us and You promised that all things work together for the good of those that love You. Thank You for keeping Your promises. Amen! Without LeRoy? Less romantic, less exciting, and less complicated. But I wouldn't trade the experience for anything. I look forward to our lives together both in and out of medicine. The best is to come. Without Lauren? Less strenuous but less rewarding. I'm glad you're here. Without my female classmates? Less caring, less laughter, more isolation, and an exclusively male perspective on medicine. I couldn't bear to face it! Without my whole class? No exercise imy volleyball teamsl, no cheerful greetings, and no one to refer to with confidence when the world of practice starts. iQQ is K.. Y LeRoy My personal relationship with God is the most important thing in my life and I thank Him for all he has given me. First He set me among two marvelous loving Christian parents who have been a living testimony of His patience and generosity in my life. Later the Lord blessed me with a beautiful wife and a gorgeous daughter whom I love with great intensity. I have so much to be thankful for especially because I don't deserve anything from God. lt's His mercy and abundant loving kindness that I enjoy and readily identify with Titus 3:3-6 in the New Testament. My fondest hope is that everyone would consider what Jesus said, For what would it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Or what would a man give in exchange for his soul? - Mark 8:36-37. God bless each of you. Lauren Daddy, Mommy, go, shoes, ball, car, ear, nose, mouth, light, dog, meow, baby, bottle, hat, yeah, and book! - Lauren at 14 months. 119 George Geanon Dedicated to those who helped me get through this: Mom, Dad, Helen, Mary, John Alison To those I have yet to meet, see you at graduation or the ten year reunion.

He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonged to him and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the tg- footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times of his life. This really bothered him, and he questioned the Lord about it. Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times of my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why, when I needed you most, you would leave me. The Lord replied, My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you. David Kim 131 Sung Yang Success, to us, means a life with Jesus.

' Guy, Cathie, Jason, and Kristy Wi x new ...i . sur x 6 Don't Quit When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, When the funds are low, and the debts are high, And you want to smile but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about, When he might have won had he stuck it outg Don't give up though the pace seems slow. You may succeed with another blow. Success is failure turned inside out, The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so farg So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit, It's when things seem worse That you must not quit. Steve Antonini and Nancy Johnson Steve Antonini 136 A Physician's Prayer Give skills to my hand, clear vision to my mind, kindness and sympathy to my heart. Give me singleness of purpose, strength to lift at least a part of the burden of my suffering fellow men, and a true realization of the rare privilege that is mine. Take from my heart all guile and worldliness, that with the simple faith of a child I may rely on Thee. Amen Two roads diverged in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could to where it bent in the undergrowthg Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear, Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages henceg Two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.

Yes, sir, I said, my voice hitting high C above middle E. nocronwef is Frankly, he continued, I was amazed at that theme. Until Friday, Mr. Gillis, I had merely thought of you as dull. Yes, sir. But now I know I was wrong. The trouble with you is that you're archaic. Huh? You're archaic. You're way behind the times. You were bom one century too late. And, he added, so was I. I tell you, Mr. Gillis, I have no regard for modem writing. It all seems like gibberish to me-all t.hat clipped prose, that break-neck pacing, that lean objectivity. I don't like it. I drink writing should be leisurely and rich. Sentencs should be long and graceful, hlled with meaning and sensitive perception. Your theme, Mr. Gillis, is a perfect example of the kind of writing I most admire. Call me Dobie, I said genially. Mark Gillis 5 -1 Marshall Steel What is real'7 asked the Rabbit one day. . . Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick- out handle? Real isn't how you are made, said the Skin Horse. lt's a thing that happens to you. . . Does it hurt'? asked the Rabbit. Sometimes, said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. When you are real you don't mind being hurt. Does it happen all at once, like being Wound up, he asked, or bit by bit? It doesn't happen all at once, said the Skin Horse. You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't often happen to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand.

Pete's interest is piqued with the new over-the-counter emetics. I never thought I'd make it, but a fluke must have occurred: I'm sure that Dr. Burr or Dr. Cross perhaps had erred. But not being one to squabble over what is wrong or right, I gracefully accepted their apparent oversight. I started school in August, an ungodly time of year, And great was my amazement when I finally showed up here. My classmates were not exactly what I thought that they would beg They were instead a highly pathologic potpourri. Over who would get the front row seats they made a raucous fuss, Myself, I found attendance to become extraneous. When questioned by my peers about my means to stay afloat, I'd reply, My friends, in God we trust, and also coop notes! I'd justify the times when my performance was not stellar, By saying Hey, clmon, you guys know that l'm just an average feller And anyway, I've heard it said that basic science boors Have awful times adjusting when they made it to the floorsf, So I claimed my academic course of mediocrity Was merely forsight into acting prophylactically. Perhaps the best advice I've heard I've followed to a T That in the end what really counts is P 2 M.D. The floors were not much different from the academic rut, But in lieu of missing classes I would try to blow off scut. While hanging out in surgery in hopes of seeing action, They'd call me to the floors to do a finger disimpaction. I'd no sooner finish that and think Now what could be more fun? When the nurse would scream for I.V. help in room three-sixty-one. And in the end I'd always find my efforts unrewardedg My final grade and floor evals were always much distorted. I'd bust my butt and break my back to only end up beaten By attending floor evaluations calling me a cretin. Well fine, I'd say I can forgive but never will forget . . . You think you've heard the last from me, but no, alas, not yet. It flows downhill, to quote a prof who's know both far and wide I'm not much now, I'd say in truth, but next year wait and see, I'll get revenge as soon as I have students under mel 145 IND . . . of course, Ted Merrill is only my stage name here at Chippendale's, but when the show's over, I'm just good old Ted Guarino again . . . . . . hmmm, let's see, I can go out with Betty on Friday, but I'll have to bump Trish to Saturday.

Well, perhaps I might try. Allow me to say that it was both an HONOR and a PRIVELIGE to even be in the same room with someone of YOUR STATURE IN THE MEDICAL COMMUNI- TY. I might add that your picture in the residency brochure hardly does you justice, you have the physique of A MAN HALF YOUR AGE. Not to mention your IMPECCABLE TASTE in ties. You are, apparently, a man who KNOWS QUALITY when he sees it. As was pointed out numerous times during my FULFILL- ING INTERVIEW, there may be a slight discrepancy regarding my medical school grades, not being one for melodrama, I shall try to refrain from telling you the gory details of how MY WHOLE FAMILY was slain in a South American coup during freshman finals. Nor shall I be so brazen as to mention the fact that Albert Einstein actually flunked his first physics course. I would hope that my ACTIVITIES would speak for themselves. And although I haven't actually published, I have often toyed with the idea. Please try to take my evaluations with a grain of salt iunless you're hypertensive! Ha Hallg I feel that three months on a service is hardly enough time for an attending to get to know you before he starts flinging slander and libel and other bilious comments into your permanent record. When it come right down to it, MY INTENTIONS are good, I've always wanted to be an obstetrician as far as I can recall, maybe even from IN THE WOMB. Just wanted to drop you this little note and hope you enjoy the enclosed 1383 gift. And although it is highly unethical to make arrangements outside the match, let me just say that I INTEND TO RANK YOUR PROGRAM QUITE HIGHLY, somewhere in the upper half of my top two choicesg I mean WAY THE HECK UP THERE, meaning NOT LOW, get it?

C? 54JORfM Dv vol? 1870 Congratulations and Best Wishes to the Class of 1986 from the Administration, Faculty and Alumni Relations Department of Loyola University of Chicago Stritch School of Medicine From the Editors: Medical school impressed us. It was a long experience which not once ceased to be amusing. The challenges it presented, the situations it created, the changes it brought about in ourselves, were great. But the people we encountered- -indeed, shared our very lives with while experiencing those changes--were so exceptional that we thought it tragic to allow memory of them to drift away to wherever we stored the Urea Cycle. ln short, it's just been too good, too significant, not to make some permanent record of it all which might someday jog memories of how special it has been. So we produced this yearbook. Our greatest regret is that these mere 148 pages necessarily exclude innumerable people and experiences we would like to have included. Graduating from medical school is a challenge. And creating a book like this at times seemed even more challenging. But trying to accomplish both endeavors simultaneously-now thats downright impossible--unless, of course, you've got a whole lot of help and support. We enjoyed just that. We thank those people who made the Plexus possible. Our memory and appreciation of their help lives on in this book which has come into being only through their support. We especially thank those below. Matt Nora Joe Hildner Alumni Relations, Dean Barbato, Frank Bourget, and the Jesuit Community for their moral and financial support of the Plexus. Steve Pfau First of all, for his being the only one of us who knew anything about putting a yearbook' together. His experience and expertise allowed the piles of disorganization which were dumped onto his layout table to become this yearbookg and for his role in getting us to subscribe to MTV to work by. But mostly for his resolute commitment to team effort, no matter how nice it was outside, how much sleep he needed, or other work Cor peoplel he had waiting. Randy Lee for his omnipresent camera and meticulous darkroom Wizardry. Cathy Prince for her unnatural amount of forgiveness, for the hours she spent alone, but most of all, for her persistence. Joanne Cibula for her patient tolerance, her support, and willingness to remain engaged. Mae Gailani for her hours of help, encouragement, and lending us Steve. Mary Pat Tierney for her award-winning sleuth work and uncanny ability to actually get med school seniors to turn in articles. Sharon fButtercupJ Berliant Master of Miscellaneous, we thank her for the generous hours she spent typing, helping on layout days, and telephoning. Pete Silver for his enthusiasm, persistent availability, Sz production work. Lisa Wheatley and Marshall Steel for their deadline darkroom work. Henry Veldenz for the photos we would never have had otherwise. Joe Paris of the Pharmacology Department for giving us a ready-made darkroom. Jim Cockerill of Dental Media for his guidance and exceptional generosity with his personal time and equipment. Dean of Students Office, especially Mike Lambesis, Lisa Kral, and Linda Schomer, for technical assistance, and for putting up with us for so long. Brother Michael Grace, S.J. of University Archives and Orthopedics dept. for their assistance with the History of Stritch section. Charlotte Given and E.R. Squibb cf: Sons for their insistent financial contribution to this effort.
