, , JraltU HIGH CLASS The MCV campus comprises an im- posing fortress in the heart of down- town. The Egyptian building dating back to 1845, the oldest medical college building in the south, is a reminder of the long history of the Medical College ' s contributions to health care education. Main Hospi- tal, and the newly opened North hospital is one of the largest and most comprehensive health care facilities in the country. Leadership in the areas of surgical transplants, Periodontic research, critical care nursing, and basic science research, to name a few, further Highlights a strong educational program. Frustrated by standing in line at Student Accounts, trying to find a parking spot, or dealing with the un- certainties of financial aid, we were often critical of the MCV educational process. Without a doubt there are hassles that should be eliminated from the system. Memory, however, tends to be selective and our rembrances will include more of the Highlights of our years in professional school. Professional School

HIGH STYLE People. Many faces will be well remembered long after details of that anatomy study sheet are forgotten. The smiling faces of the servers in the dining hall are the Highlights of mealtime at Larrick. On a good day a smile or constructive comment from a faculty member could provide a memorable High- light. Even a joke or amusing story told by a behind-the-scenes em- ployee could Highlight an afternoon of study. Classmates are the only people who know what you ' ve gone through. During the bad times of forfeiting sleep to complete projects and study for tests, and the good times of partying after a stressful week, they were right there in the same position. These friends develop a common bond and in retrospect are undoubtedly the Highlight of any academic year. People 7
