To the Class of 78 My sincere congratulations and best wishes to each new Doctor. You have successfully completed the major step in your professional career. Sir William Osier once said, Medicine is a science of uncertainty and an art of probability. In today's world, because of our ever increasing body of knowledge, this statement is fast becoming passe. You have the knowledge, the sills and the ability to offer yor patients quality health care. Build on these truths and you will enjoy a successful career in your chosen profession. Remember the half life of knowledge in Podiatric Medicine may be as short as five years. This means the half of what you know today will be obsolete in five years and half of what you should know in five years has not yet been discovered. Therefore, the challenge is in clear focus; lifetime study is a necessity if you are to maintain competence. The four years you spent with us were good years. You were eager to learn which is a joy to any teacher. As you go your individual ways, always remember that we are proud of you. We want to follow your successes and be ever ready to assist you in preventing failures. Keep in touch and tell us how we can help. I am confident that the class of 1978 will bring honor and glory to the PCPM family. God Speed. 4

CLASS OF 1978 YEARBOOK MESSAGE Graduation is considered often as the end of the educational process. In health professions education it is only the beginning of a life-long process of continuing education. This is particularly true for podiatric medicine. The last fifteen to twenty years have revolutionized our educational process and the delivery of foot care in this country. This revolution has resulted in a greater recognition of the profession and it has placed a greater responsibility on all of us to be equal to that recognition. As you contemplate graduation and the reception of the degree, Doctor of Podiatric Medicine think of the recognition and the responsibility inherent therein. If you are to fulfill that responsibility, individually and collectively, continuing education must be one of your priorities. The vast experience of scientific knowledge has changed, and will continue to change, the delivery of health care to the general public. Your current reservoir of knowledge has prepared you for private practice in the immediate future. That base will be eroded very quickly. Therefore, self-education is a necessity-almost immediately!! Continuing education is facilitated by an affiliation with a medical institution. Make that affiliation as you begin to practice. A hospital, a medical school and, pathways to keep you abreast of newer technology. Continuing education must become an integral part of your practice. Acceptance of that responsibility for self-education begins now. Your patients will demand it and your profession will expect it. Congrtulations on your achievements and the right to use the term Doctor . You are indeed worthy of that title and the health professional status it affords you. We at P.C.P.M. will always be ready to assist you with the education necessary for a successful practice. Charles W. Gibley Jr. Sincerely, Dean January 25. 1979 Dear Class of 1978: The road has been long and arduous. Graduation came and went. You made it! But, we all expected that. If there is one thing we will remember the Class of 1978 for, it is determination. Although there were moments of constera-tion over the past four years, you should know the faculty and administration view your Class's accomplishments with a great deal of pride. Determination on the part of many in podiatric medicine is what brought the profession to where it is today. You are a new generation with potential to well surpass your predecessors. It is our deep hope that you will continue to use your skills to improve yourselves and your profession wisely and with continued conviction. Best wishes to each of you. Sncerelv yours, Laurence C. Sartor, Ph. D Vice President for Student Affairs Lawrence Sartor
