DECLARATION OF GENEVA Now being admitted to the profession of Medicine, I solemnly pledge to consecrate my life to the service of humanity. I will give respect and gratitude to my deserving teachers. I will practice medicine with conscience and dignity. The health and life of my patients will be my first consideration. I will hold in confidence all that my patient confides in me. I will maintain the honor and noble traditions of the medical profession. My colleagues will be as my brothers. I will not permit consideration of race, religion, nationality, party politics or social standing to intervene between my duty and my patient. I will maintain the utmost respect for human life from its conception. Even under threat I will not use my knowledge contrary to the laws of humanity. These promises I make freely and upon my honor.

THEME T HE entire class has been nourished from a common fount of knowledge and experiences, yet, each individual's reaction to these stimuli remains unique and thus preserves his identity. However, the greater these stimuli promote diversity of interests, opinions, and abilities, the more uniformly high in caliber becomes the quality of the graduating class as both practicing physicians and members of the non-medical community. Recognizing the importance of this, we have chosen a text and symbol which emphasizes our yearbook’s unity through diversity. Our tripartite theme symbol — the hand of a woman, the eye of an eagle, the heart of a lion — reminds us that the physician's ability to practice medicine is only as good as the integration of his skill, his outlook, and his character. While aggressive in attacking disease, his hand must be sensitive and gentle; while focusing on the current problem, his mind's eye must not overlook the dynamics of the whole patient; and while wrestling with the horns of a dilemma, the physician must find within himself truculent courage to choose a course of action and leonine strength to meet consequences. Like our sectioned crest, each cardinal point of the Declaration of Geneva calls to mind one of the multiple facets which comprise the making of a Doctor and thus unifies our yearbook’s separate glances at the various aspects of our medical education. So too, we hope that its admonitions and injunctions may unify our individual public and private aspirations in one common call to conscience as we practice the art of medicine — a moral commitment to practice it with humility, dignity, and respect for human life that has been our common heritage as the perpetuators of our predecessors' example. 22
