ATHOLOGY The Department of Path- ology is concerned with the structural and functional aspects of disease with emphasis on pathogenesis and patho- physiology. In the first few months of , , general pathologic processes Chyaline dropouts, fatty metamorphasis, Zenker's waxy some- thing or other, etc.j dominate the scene. Then the emphasis shifts to systemic pathology-the first look at real medicine. In Pathology, the spoon feeding ends, and any resemblance between exams and specific lecture material is purely coincidental. Exams are rare but relatively easy if you can decipher the questions . . . . . . and dogs ARE cleaner than cats! It is the sixth floor lab that many learn why a binocular scope was recommended at the start of medical school ...... You can close your eyes and no one can tell you're asleep. It is the rare, novice pathologist who is not seeing double by the end of a session-and it is even rarer to find one who fails to stay until the end and escapes the forked tongue of Big Bad Billf, The weekly C.P.C. is usually quite enjoyable and exciting for all but the unfortunate few called upon to udiscussl' the case .... a difficult task for one who's so nervous that he can't remember his own name. Autopsies can be very informative, and the introduc- tion to one's first protocol on the final exam can even be shocking. When the pathology course ends, the study of pathology is just beginning. The importance of this subject, regardless of future specialty training, he- comes more evident every year one is associated with medicine. - -' I N- '-.- - ,E is HUGH G.

Pharmacology defined us the mteraction of drugs with living Lectures conferences lab sessions and the inevitable exams were all aimed at us with its basic pr1nc1p1es From very Hrst day we realized that we were to be better than seventh in the nation-or else! Nothing became more controversial than the now famous Five Point Program. It started with the greatest shortage of volunteers in history, but by May there was a rush to every instructor s door in an attempt to fight for a last minute topic Kf -91' asf ,M Some of us will probably never understand three weeks of epinephrine vs. twenty minutes of penicillin, or why we were always questioned on the prototype while the actions of the drug of choice remained a mystery. In the lab, we observed, among other things, actions and toxicities of drugs and had an early introduction to surgery. A few will always be hard to convince that their unknown was not a placebo At times, the small group conferences developed into heated discussions, but a telescopic view of the harbor from 12 BSB was usually enough to bring even the most irate back to a state of composure.
