The Journey Towards Our DESTINATION ffl n August 24, 2000 we began a challenging and exciting journey at Temple University School of Medicine. We traveled from distances near and far to embark upon our goal of earning a medical degree. We came from different cultures, and backgrounds, which contributed to the diversity that embodies one of the many unique characteristics that distinguishes Temple from other universities in Philadelphia. Although we each had our own interests, we all had one common goal: to become competent, confident, compassionate physicians. In the last four years, we have been able to arm ourselves with a greater knowledge of all that encompasses the field of medicine. Moreover, throughout our journey, toward a medical degree, our endurance both as individuals and as a class was repeatedly put to the test. The result has been a greater awareness of one's self and a commitment to arrive at our final academic destination. On May 20. 2004 we arrived at the end of the road of our medical school journey together and achieved our ultimate goal of becoming doctors. As we look back on all of the memories we have to share, it is evident that we are prepared to embark upon yet another journey toward a successful future career in each of our chosen fields of specialty. Our final destination on this particular day is reached upon receipt of our medical degrees. -Cat Schermer. Editor Temple University School of Medicine 3
