DEAN CONGRATULATIONS, CLASS OF 19B3! Thank you for the privilege of extending my best wishes to your Class on behalf of the Faculty and Educational Administration. You have earned the privilege and right to be called Osteopathic Physician , having completed one of the most demanding programs in medical education — that of osteopathic medicine at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. I am proud to welcome you as members of the Profession and as alumni of PCOM. You have been a dedicated and industrious Class. You shared joy, sadness and triumph with one another. It has been a pleasure to see you work together. Thank you for the interest shown your College and future students by the significant class gift to the Student Loan Fund. This is tangible expression of the Osteopathic Oath , and establishes a fine example for future colleagues. It is appreciated by the entire College family. It has been good to be your Dean and to work with you for four years. PCOM and my Office are here to continue to serve you in the future. Do not hesitate to call for assistance, and plan to be with us for some excellent C.M.E. programs and Alumni Reunions. I shall follow you and your careers with interest. Many will be leaders in our Profession and in your communities. Support your Profession and College, care for your patients, and practice quality osteopathic medicine. May osteopathic principles be a motivating factor in your philosophy of practice. On behalf of the Faculty, members of the Educational Administration, and our PCOM staff, I extend best wishes to each of you. May God bless you all. Sincerely Robert W. England, CO. Dean
