DEDICATION Because we are the victims of a constantly increasing intellectual confusion, and are timid about digging beneath the surface of life, we find ourselves more emphatic about a knowledge of facts, and less con- cerned with the wisdom of beginnings and endings. But now, let us go below the surface of a man ' s life to the spiritual depths beneath, and behold the servile place of the world. The inestimable dignity of a man and the eternal promise which, crowning his life, dwarfs everything else in the universe. For all seasons, even to the twilight of his life, a man must give back to the earth all that he has taken. To this sense of dedication to humanity, we wish to share acknowledgement of service to P.C.O.M., of a new- comer who came only a year before our time to find a welcome place in our sun — Dr. James Oliver Brown. He began his career in teaching in 1929 with a B.S. in Biology from the University of Michigan. He then pur- sued further studies at the same institution to earn an M.S. in Neuroanatomy, and a Ph.D in Gross Anatomy and Neuroanatomy. Through the years, he has taught at the University of Michigan, Emory University, the University of Pennsylvania, the Woman ' s Medical Col- lege of Pennsylvania, the University of Tennessee, and Jefferson Medical College. He is a member of the Phi Sigma Society, Society of the Sigma Xi, American Association of Anatomists, JAMES OLIVER BROWN B.S., M.S., C.L.C., Ph.D., F.I.C.S. American Association for the Advancement of Science (Fellow), State Anatomical Board, Cajal Club, Ameri- can Association of University of Professors, Philadephia Physiological Society, International Col- lege of Surgeons (Fellow), American Medical Associa- tion (Affiliate), and the New Jersey Public Health As- sociation. Dr. Brown is listed in the American Men of Science, Who ' s Who in World Medicine, Who ' s Who in Ameri- can Education, and Who ' s Who in the East. He did pioneer research in the field of regenerative processes of the Central Nervous System, and into cer- tain phases of nerve union and anastamosis in the peripheral nerves involving the cross-union of the phrenic and vagus nerves. He is a prolific writer with publications too numerous to list. Today, we make acknowledgement to Dr. J.O. Brown, who found a home with us in our old Gothic Anatomy Lab and has shared many hours giving to all of us, his energy and enthusiasm. We found him dedicated to giving back to humanity some measure of his information as well as his talents and achievements gleaned from over forty years of teaching and research. He joined our family without reserve. His major concern is being able to communi- cate with the students without falling into the

abyss of a generation gap and not being accepted. Of course, he was accepted and is very much appreciated. He tells of his delight with the students minds, the great desire to learn, and the esprit d ' corps ' of our P.C.O.M. students. Of all his teaching years and expe- riences, he declares our students to be the most en- thusiastic, most responsive, an d best that he has ever had the pleasure of instructing. Standing out among us, arrayed in his black labora- tory smock, he earnestly explains, I must teach in my own way. That, he has most dramatically and effec- tively done, and our students sincerely thank him. In our students is to be found tremendous desire to persue knowledge, to train, and understand fully. Dr. Brown has found the scholastic enthusiasm of our classmates most admirable. To encourage excellence, in anatomy. Dr. Brown has established a monetary prize, awarded at the end of each academic year in honor of his parents ' memory, for that student who has succeeded in attaining the highest achievement in anatomy. At last he has found a comfortable place, a peaceful place, and a place that respects a man who could teach in his own fashion. This happy place — P.C.O.M. — his home. For a family are we, in a brotherhood supreme, with loyalty to all, following the paths already trodden bare by so many before us. We join with our commence- ment, our fellow physicians in the service of mankind. Thus, we dedicate to Dr. James Oliver Brown, hon- orary member of the Class of ' 76, a special place in our book, in our memories, and in our hearts.
