URCERY The Department of Surgery does not set out to make surgeons of its students but rather to acquaint them with the princi .ples of diagnosis and management of surgical disorders During the third year clerkship, particular emphasis is placed on pre-operative and post- operative care. A series of didactic lectures on the fundamentals of surgery and the surgical specialties is given throughout the academic year. During the fourth year clerkship, more time is spent on the wards and in the operating room. Experience is gained in minor therapeutic procedures, and interested surgeons-to-be can attempt some of the more com- plicated major procedures in the experimental lab. Combined conferences with the Departments of Radi- ology and Pathology are among the high points of the clerkship. KENNETH JUDY, M.D., is Professor of Surgery and chairman of that department. It is primarily through his efforts that the department has been able to secure the present compliment of alliliate hospitals utilized by our students for their clinical clerkships. On the school's staff since its inception, he has within the past few years assumed the chair of the department and made it what it is today. i Q , at.. . ' .
