ID IP. IPOXIDT’S MESSAGE To the Senior Class: 1 salute the Class of 1930 in its publication of the Skull. It is the comprehensive story of a four year environment. It records impressions and reactions. It is the written acknowledgment of the second epoch in your career in medicine, the first being your matriculation, the third will be your establishment in practice. My message to your collated valedictory of these years of earnest work in the study of the healing art will find its best expression in the following abstract from the writings of Professor William Pepper: “Through the ages from the early dawn of human understanding, the Medicine Man has pursued his strange yet sacred calling. Possessed of knowledge which sets them apart, dealing ever with the tremendous and baffling problems of life and death, looked to by all when suffering and danger impend, worshipped as divine and hailed as deliverers when the issue is good, or derided and punished for their failures, the Doctors have always enjoyed strange experiences. . . . Through it all, the belief of the people in the healing art has remained true; through it all the aim of the Doctor has remained noble; and the larger light of knowledge of these later days in defining clearly the splendid service rendered to humanity by medicine. It is no longer merely the personal relation of doctor to patient and the personal service; there is coming now the infinitely broader relation of sympathy and confidence betwen the entire community and the whole medical profession, engaged in a common work of discovering and removing the cause of disease! Fellow students of the Senior Class your opportunities arc golden. Be optimistic and cheery. Hold fast to high standards. Maintain a fine code. In conclusion may I as your colleague suggest that you fit your lives to'this verse of Whittier. No crusade thine for cross or grave. But for the living man. Go forth to succor and to save, All that thy skilled hands can. Sincerely, Your Friend, John B. Roxby. Sixteen

To the Senior Class: May I extend congratulations upon the successful completion of your course in medicine, and extend to you best wishes for a happy internship and a most successful medical career. It is not necessary to remind you that you have consecrated your lives to humanity. To thine own self be true, but always remember the patient is your first consideration. Guard jealously the traditions of your profession, and “carry on with credit and honor, that future generations will look back with pleasure and profit, at your achievements. Bear in mind that preventive medicine is greater than curative medicine, and that you should occupy a very important place in the future scheme of personal and public health, which are dependent upon the watchful care, the diagnosis and faithful services of the family physician. No persons and no agencies can take the place of the family physician who is the keystone of the structure of public health. Faithfully yours, Frank C. Hammond. To My Senior Class: You are now a member of a profession honored above all others. The practice of medicine offers glorious opportunities for abundant service to your fellow men. Dedicate your lives to the cause of humanity, endeavoring always to relieve and befriend the sick and suffering. Remember the opportunities offered the physician to contribute something to the sum total of human knowledge. Many problems of absorbing interest and of utmost benefit to mankind are yet awaiting solution. It is my earnest hope that the members of the Class of 1930 may extend the border line of medical knowledge by discovering some agent or method that will cure a baffling disease, further relieve suffering, or result in the prolongation of human life. William N. Parkinson, Dean. Seventeen
