The editors hope that this record of our tour years at PCOM will be accepted by our classmates as accurate. As with any attempt of this kind there is always one group ol people ho will be highly visible throughout the book and another that might not appear at all. As in past years, we approached this problem b giving each senior his own page to do witli as he pleased. The response ran the gamut from one person using an artist ' s drawing to another asking tliat her page be deleted completely. No matter how differently each classmate wished to portray himself, this mediod insured that every class member participated in the making of this book. As editors, we then placed this collection of individualized pages into a framework that made heavy use of (juotations and original photography. We hoped that tliis kind of format would portray not just people, but what it was like to attend PCOM during our four years there. The book was then divided in such a way that the reader would have tlie opportiniity to see how we changed during this period of time. Finally, there is an opening section, whose meaning to the reader we know will be constantly changing with time. In closing, we wish you as much satisfaction in viewing this book as we had in creating it. — THE EDITORS nbex Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine 1 26 Dedication Since its founding in 1898, PCOM has grown remarkably.

Class Chairman ej Ipl JM 4 mt mm W I M ■■ -i Fellow classmates, I wish to take these few lines to reflect upon four years of perhaps the most memorable and important part of our lives. I try to think of the words that could be used to describe each year leading to that final day when we are granted the legal means to practice medicine — the D.O. degree. The first two years are proba- bly described by fear , doubt , anxiety , disillu- sionment , comradiere , knowledge , and perhaps even boredom . In the third year such words as excitement , enthusiasm , immaturity , comprehension , may come to mind. And finally the fourth year can be summarized as maturity , perception , re- levance , confidence , and for some, arrogance . Through this brief, but some- what nostalgic, look back at those days of all-nighters , fi- nals. Boards, group and rotation arbitration, one can intuitively see a trend that has evolved. If I had to choose only one word to describe this trend, I believe I would choose the word metamorphasis . For it is this word that characterizes our be- coming the player from the spectator, the physician from the student. Obviously I do not wish to imply that the metamorphasis has occurred overnight on the day of our graduation; rather, it has been in evolution from the very day we made the decision to become a physician. We now have a commitment to serve mankind with all the imple- ments and resources we have gathered from our training. To do anything less than this is un- ethical. It would be naive of me to think that all of us are dedi- cated to that commitment; how- ever, I sincerely believe that the vast majority subscribe to this. And perhaps it was this some- what intangible gratification that comes to one from helping another human that has assisted our making it through four laborious years. As Class Chairman I am aware that what I have given in these four years has been inappreci- able when compared to the many individuals who have con- tributed collectively and unself- ishly toward the success of our didactic years. And during our clinical years I have learned much from my peers. I have made some; unpopular ck ' cisions during this time, hut I did st; only after I knew that these were the majority ' s choice. Be- cause of this I discovered that ours was a class of indi- vidualists, idealists, pragmatists, ff)Ilowers and jf-aders. To those who did not always agree with me I ask that you please never change or compromise ycjur opinions or feelings, for it is you, the sometimes vocal minority, that can effect a change in the many times archaic and unjust status (juo of both the profession and the world. I have truly enjoyed serving as Chairman for this class of 1978, and I shall be proud to say that I have come to know what I am sure will be some of the most erudite and most dedicated doc- tors of the Osteopathic profes- sion. Good luck, congratulations and may all of you experience the rewards and satisfaction so unique to Osteopathic Medi- cine. — Dennis E. Agostini Boathouse Row Philadelphia ' s Italian Market President ' s Page ii To the Class of 1978: In September, 1974, after an average of sixteen years of preparatory work, 200 students entered the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. In December, 1974, after 24 years with PCOM, I was inaugurated President. The class of 1978, then, is the first class that I will witness graduate in my ca- pacity as President of our college. Is it four years already? Like your- selves, I suppose, I feel that in many ways it has seemed shorter — and, in so many ways, it seems forever. As first year students, you heard of the goals outlined by our administra- tion: ... to provide the finest in os- teopathic medical education. ... to be at the center of region- alization of osteopathic care in this area. Although these goals are separate, they are by no means disparate. The re- quirements necessary to provide a quality educational program cannot help but simultaneously elevate the level of patient care. What has happened in these four years to bring us closer to our goals? Basic to our growth as an osteopathic medical college is a whole time pre- clinical and clinical faculty who are readily available to our students. Since you began PCOM in September, 1974, 25 whole time members have been added to our faculty. These appoint- ments have been both in the Basic Sci- ence area and all of the clinical de- partments. Our part time faculty, too, has grown in order to provide additional depth in our teaching program. Today, we boast an active part time faculty of 153 mem- bers. A need of a teaching hospital and also a sound educational program is that of provision of expertise in sub- specialties. Four years later, three physicians have completed residency programs at PCOM, received subspe- cialty training under PCOM sponsor- ship, and returned to whole time status in the areas of Shock and Trauma, Re- spiratory Medicine, and Cardiology. The overall strengthening of our ed- ucational program has borne fruit in the attraction of house staff to our hos- pital. In 1974, we had a total house staff of 9 interns and 19 residents. To- day, our house staff has grown to 20 interns and 29 residents. The in- creased house staff, in its own right, contributes greatly both to our educa- tional and patient care programs. In examining our structure, two new departments have been created: a sep- arate department of Ophthalmology and, a first in the osteopathic profes- sion, a whole time faculty department of Emergency Medicine. So many other developments have happened during the past four years that comprise the new PCOM . These include the establishment of a Neurosensory Diagnostic Center, a high risk Obstetrics Clinic, a well func- tioning Neonatal Intensive Care area in our Nursery, and the recent estab- lishment of a School of Allied Health. Administratively, a number of changes have occurred because, if we are to meet our challenges, we must have individuals capable of facing them. Today, we are working on 4190 City Avenue in order to bring our Anatomy and Chemistry departments from 48th Street to the City Avenue campus. It will be hard for many of us to leave 48th Street as it has been so much a part of our past. But our concern is with the present and future of t)ur college; therefore, closing 48th Street is the practical, if difficult, decision. The support of our alumni to our growth should not go without mention. In our first annual College Growth Fund (1976-1977), our alumni contri- buted over $130,000 to PCOM. An ad- ditional tangible expression of the in- terest of our alumni is the Archival Room in Evans Hall, which holds a trove both of osteopathic and PCOM memorabilia. A strong similarity exists between the past four years of our college ' s his- tory and the past four years of your per- sonal history. I think you will agree that, although solid accomplishment has been achieved in both instances, this accomplishment is only a begin- ning. The lifetime of an individual and the lifetime of a corporation are both dynamic processes. Is it ever possible to say, I have learned all I need to learn ? It is not possible, either, to state, I have done all that is needed to be done . Room for refinement and im- provement will always be present. And so, with that thought in mind, we both commence. I cannot tell you how strongly I wish for each of you a full and gratifying future. You have been our students and you have given us both life and a reason for being. I thank you . . . and may God bless you. — Thomas M. Rowland, Jr. CONGRATULATIONS, CLASS OF 1978!! Thank you for this opportu- nity to extend my congratula- tions and greetings to your fine class on behalf of the Faculty and Educational Administra- tion. The theme GROWTH is a most fitting one at this time in your careers and in the history of PCOM. You have worked hard and studiously these past four years. You were a select group, and exhibited the GROWTH that has earned for you the privilege and right to be an OS- TEOPATHIC PHYSICIAN. The CLASS of 1978 has ob- served a great deal of growth at PCOM. You have seen the con- tinued expansion of facilities and programs. I am delighted that PCOM ' s Board of Trustees, President and Administration have been committed to peo- ple as well as facilities. This is in the tradition of the os- teopathic concept. This com- mitment has led to a rapid in- crease in the Faculty of PCOM. Ten years ago, there were 23 whole time faculty members, and 131 part time faculty mem- bers, totalling 154. When your class entered PCOM in 1974, there were 70 whole time fac- Dean ' s Page ulty and 149 part time for a total of 219. The total, as you gradu- ate, is 248, with further add i- tions pending. Ninety-five of these are whole time and 153 are part time. The whole time faculty has more than (luad- rupled in the last decade. It has grown significantly in just the last four years. The miracle of PCOM is that staffing has been increased, and tuition has been maintained at reasonable and modest levels at the same time. Education involves people, and I appreciate the direction PCOM has followed. You have been the benefactors along with the countless patients to whom you will minister. The depth, strength and scope of our Fac- ulty engenders a great sense of accomplishment by your Ad- ministration. We would hope some of you will be interested in joining the College Faculty, and that many will become hospital staff members. The numbers we cite do not include the Precep- tors and some of the dedicated physicians at affiliated hospitals who contributed generously to your education. We salute them. This is a large cadre approximat- ing perhaps some 200 physi- cians. PCOM IS YOUR COLLEGE. Visit us fre(juently. Keep in touch. We are here to guide you and be of assistance. Attend the Continuing Medical Education programs. We value your com- ments. Your evaluation of your education and comments about future graduates as you partici- pate in the preceptorships, staff of affiliated hospitals, and other avenues of education will prove invaluable to us as we assess achievement of goals and objec- tives, and as evaluation con- tinues. Support your College and fulfill your obligation to fu- ture generations of students. Be proud of being an Os- teopathic Physician. Be proud of your College. Be loyal to both. They have provided you many opportunities. Rise to the chal- lenge before you. You are a unique Class. I have enjoyed being your Dean. It has been a privilege to work with you. PCOM and the Dean ' s Of- fice are here to serve you. On behalf of the Faculty, all the members of the Educational Administration, and our PCOM team, may I extend hearty best wishes to each one. May God bless you. — Robert W. England D.O. DEAN mm •• I •- • •  g.

Pressley, D.O. with incoipo- rution in 1899. From an initial class ot hvo students the institution has expanded to a total enrollment of over 800. The first session of PCOM was held in the Stephen Girard build- ing on 12tli Street. St)on after, the Ct)llege ' s home was transferred to 33rd and . rch Streets and in 1908 was mo ed again to a Brownstone house at Broad Street and Columbia A enue. Philadelphia ' s first Osteopathic Hospital was opened on South 9th Street in 1915. PCOM ' s 48th Street site was secured in 1928 and a college and hospital were erected the following year at a cost of one million dollars. Si.xteen acres of land on Cit - A enue at Monument Road were purchased in 1957. On this site the College has continued to grow to its present size and has come to include numerous clinics through- out the state. . s the expansion of the College progresses and the faculty en- larges, its preeminence among the medical community and the achievements obtained b ' its graduates will also continue to grow. It is for diis reason that the 1978 SYNAPSIS is dedicated to the continuing development of our institution. 26 jSv- , 27 28 Hospital of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. 29 THE OSTEOPATHIC OATH HIPPOCRATIC OATH I do hereby affirm m - l() alt - to the profes- sion I am about to enter. I will be mindful al a ' s of m ' great respon- sibility ' to preser e the health and the life of m - patients, to retain their eonfidenee and respeet both as a physieian and a friend who will guard their secrets with scrupulous honor and fidel- it -, to perform faithfulK ' my professional dutii ' s, to i-mplo) onl those recognized methods of treatment consistent with good judgment and with my skill and ability, keep- ing in mind always nature ' s laws and the body ' s inherent capacity for recovery. I w ill be ever vigilant in aiding in the gen- eral welfare of the community, sustaining its laws and institutions, not engaging in those practices hich will in any way bring shame or discredit upon m self or my profession. I will gi e no drugs for deadly purposes to any per- son, though it be asked of me. I ill endeavor to work in accord w ith my colleagues in a spirit of progressive co- operation, and never by word or by act cast imputations upon them or their rightful prac- tices. I will look with respect and esteem upon all those who have taught me my art. To my col- lege I will be loyal and strive always for its best interests and for the interests of the students who will come after me. I will be ever alert to further the application of basic biologic truths to the healing arts and to develop the princi- ples of osteopathy which were first enunciated hx Andrew Ta ' lor Still. 30 I swear by Apollo the physician and Aes- culapius and Hygeia and Panacea and all the gods and goddesses that according to my abil- it ' and judgment: I will keep this oath and this stipulation — to reckon him who taught me this Art equally dear to me as my parents; to share my sub- stance with him and relieve his necessities if required; to look upon his offspring in the same footing as my own brothers and to teach them this Art if they shall wish to learn it. Without fee on stipulation and that by pre- cept, lecture and every other mode of instruc- tion, I will impart a knowledge of the Art to my own sons, and those of my teachers, and to dis- ciples bound by a stipulation and oath. According to the law of medicine but to none others, I will follow the system of regimen which according to my ability and judgment I consider for the benefit of my patients and abs- tain from whatever is deleterious and mis- chievous. I will give no deadly medicine to any one if asked nor suggest any such counsel and in like manner I will not give to a woman a plessary to produce abortion. With purity and with holiness I will pass my life and practice my art. I will not cut persons laboring under the stone, but will leave this to be done by men who are practitioners of this work. Into whatever houses I enter, I will go into them for the benefit of the sick, and I will abstain from every voluntary act of mischief and corruption. And further from the seduction of females or males of freemen and slaves. Whatever in connection with my professional practice or not in connection with it, I see or hear in the life of men which ought not to be spoken of abroad. I will not divulge as reckoning that all such should be kept secret. While I continue to keep this oath unviolated, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and the practice of the Art respected by all men in all times! But should I trespass and violate this Oath, may the reverse be my lot! ' = ' - ' ™ ' ° ' - - Orientation, 1974 35 I never forget a face, but in your case I ' ll make an exception. — G.

Calvin College Memorial General Hospital — Union, N.J. U Instruction in medicine is like the culture of the productions of the earth. For our natural disposition is, as it were, the soil; the tenets of our teacher are, as it were, the seed; instruction in youth is like the planting of the seed in the ground at the proper season; the place where the instruction is commu- nicated is like the food imparted to vegetables by the atmosphere; diligent study is like the cultiva- tion of the fields; and it is time which imparts strength to all things and brings them to maturity.

THE WINNER If you think you are beaten, you are; If you think you dare not, you don ' t; If you ' d like to win, but you think you can ' t. It ' s almost a cinch you won ' t. If you think you ' ll lose, you ' ve lost, For out in the world you ' ll find Success begins with a fellow ' s will — It ' s all a state of mind. If you think you ' re outclassed, you are; You ' ve got to think high to rise; You ' ve got to be sure of yourself before You can ever win the prize. Full many a race is lost Ere ever a step is run; And many a coward fails Ere ever his work ' s begun. Think big and your deads will grow; Think small and you ' ll fall behind; Think that you can and you will — It ' s all in die state of mind. Life ' s battles don ' t always go To the stronger or faster man; But soon or late the man who ins Is the fellow who thinks he can. — Author Unkno ' n 159 JOHN V. CAPPELLO, D.O.

Above it stood the seraphim: each one had six wings; with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he did fly. And one cried unto another, and said. Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory. And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him who cried, and the iiouse was filled witli smoke. Then said I, Woe is me! For I am undone, because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts. Then flew one of the seraphim unto me having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the alter. .And he laid it upon m mouth, and said, Lo, this hath toiu hcd tin lijis, and tiling ini(iuit is taken away, and thy sin purged. Also 1 heard the voice of the Lord, saying. Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. Isaiah 6:1-8 BARRY A. WARNER, D.O. Wilkes College, B.S., B.A. 318 JEFFREY G.

STARK CONTRIBUTORS Donnie Herr Laurie Kautnuui Paris Mecki Fred Klemick Ste ' e Merin Entenmann ' s Patt - Baron David Loss The Singing Telegram Company Tom Baker The Coca-Cohi Botthng Company Elaine Nissenbaum Pete Constantini Herb Avart Dan DuPont Walt Beam Phil Robin Roger Merit Maggie Ferguson Ken Baker Dave Bacha Ken Lexier This is our opportiinitx- to express what it is like to create a earhook. GeneralK ' , one goes through torment, pleasure, arguement, compromise, defeat, discipHne, hvmiiliation, gratification, and intensity. The effort started over two and one half years ago during our sophomore ear. The faces at that first meeting and the ones that appeared at our late night meetings were two ' er - different groups of people. We learned about the t pe of person you could count on when the glamour left and the hard times began. Da c. ()u stuck through it all and pro ided the continuit - we needed from the original group that tried to start this book. Patt -, ou put up ith a lot from Da e, including a missed birthday party and basically no husband during the first fc w weeks of your marriage. John, the best thing that ever happened to this book is diat you married Paris. It was also your mellowing influence that turned us from screaming animals into friends learning the d namics of compromise. Ken, thanks for the dough we needed to make this thing go. Ideas are great, but without the backing all this would just have remained a dream. Your constant belief in this t pe of book ' s ultimate success helped us calm dow n and just do our work. Mart -, you came in the middle and added the fire we needed to press on. Many times the burden of e.xplaining realit ' to the group fell to you. Because of your photography, alimg with John ' s and Dave ' s the book reached a higher lc cl of quality. Tony, thanks for gi ing him up for all those long nights. Ernie. Somehow, whenever we say that word it will always conjure up imagery of that poor person who had to live below THE MESS. Slowly, but surely, you were sucked into the book. We suppose you felt you could just as easily work with us upstairs as to be kept awake down there. That first deadline, when we were losing the race, you showed up to save the day. I am sure that we will remember that all nighter, always. Paul and Ira, you came through when we needed it the most. You were not there when there was glamour in the idea of creating a yearbook or during the endless time of idle rhetoric on what needs to be done on the book. Once things got into motion and the talk was over you were there to work; true friends. Lainie, too many times it strained us terribly and for that I apologize. I know you did it for me. You are everything. Donnie, NEVER again. To Steve Merin, you put up with a change in editors, confusion, court jesters, compromised deadlines, pompous asses, and amateurs. You were a cause of arguement but you were always there for support, advice and common sense. We thank you and the studio for everything, especially the fine job you did in processing the color in the opening section. Now that this book is complete, we never realized the amount of sacrifice that this type of book would demand. As medical students it would have been simple to go the easy route, not caring at all about (juality or imagination. Because we chose to go in another direction the book provided a rare opportunity for us to turn from just thinking about medicine and to focus in specifically on 326 how we perceive ourselves as people. It, of course, also gave us the opportiuiity to provide tlie visual record of the CLASS of 1978, both a responsibility and a pleasure. To our classmates, the last four years have been a totally unique and peak experience with 200 very different and highly motivated academic individuals; an experience like no otlier that can be provided in education. To our readers, every effort was made to provide an accurate description of our four years at PCOM. Pl ease do not hesitate now or at an ' time in the future to communicate vour thoughts. Sincereh ' .

For the money to create SYNAPSIS 78, I wish to personall - thank the individuals and businesses whose names appear on tlie following pages. May I suggest that the Class of ' 78 do the same whenever you get the chance. It has been a great four years and I am proud to have my name linked to the P.C.O.M. Class of 1978 and this yearbook.
